Question Find the distance between the points (-5, 8) and (-3,0).

Mathematics
1 answer:
Temka [501]2 years ago
7 0

To calculate the distance between two points we use this formula:

\boxed{ \boxed{{d \:  =   \:  \sqrt{(x_2 \:  -  \: x_1)^{2} \:  +  \: (y_2 \:  -  \: y_1)^{2} } }}}

<h3>______________________</h3>

<h3>We organize the values:</h3>

  • x₁ = -5
  • x₂ = -3
  • y₁ = 8
  • y₂ = 0

______________________

We apply the values already obtained to the formula to get the distance:

d \:  =   \:  \sqrt{( - 3 \:  -  \:( - 5))^{2} \:  +  \: (0 \:  -  \: 8)^{2} }

d \:  =   \:  \sqrt{( - 3 \:  -  \: ( - 5))^{2} \:  +  \: ( - 8)^{2} }

d \:  =  \:  \sqrt{( - 3 \:  +  \: 5) ^{2}  \:  +  \: 64 }

d \:  =  \:  \sqrt{ {2}^{2} \:  +  \: 64 }

d \:  =  \:  \sqrt{4 \:  +  \: 64}

d \:  =  \:  \sqrt{68}

d \:  = \boxed{ \bold{  \: 2 \sqrt{17}  \:   units}}

<h2>Answer: </h2>

\huge{\boxed{ \bold{2 \sqrt{17} \: units }}}

how to use Lcd in this problem? [a-2. -_1_ =_3_]find Lcd [ a+3 1 a-2]. (a+3)(a+2). multiply all neumerator to (LCD) a-2 - 1= 3 _
san4es73 [151]

It's not entirely clear to me what you're trying to solve, but it looks like the initial equation is

\dfrac{a-2}{a+3} -1 = \dfrac3{a+2}

First convert each term into a fraction with the same (i.e. the least common) denominator. The first term needs to be multiplied by <em>a</em> + 2; the second term by (<em>a</em> + 3) (<em>a</em> + 2); and the third term by <em>a</em> + 3 :

\dfrac{a-2}{a+3}\cdot\dfrac{a+2}{a+2} -1\cdot\dfrac{(a+3)(a+2)}{(a+3)(a+2)} = \dfrac3{a+2}\cdot\dfrac{a+3}{a+3} \\\\ \dfrac{(a-2)(a+2)}{(a+3)(a+2)} - \dfrac{(a+3)(a+2)}{(a+3)(a+2)} = \dfrac{3(a+3)}{(a+3)(a+2)}

Now that everything has the same denominator, we can combine the fractions into one. Move every term to one side and join the numerators:

\dfrac{(a-2)(a+2)-(a+3)(a+2)-3(a+3)}{(a+3)(a+2)} = 0

Simplify the numerator:

\dfrac{(a^2-4)-(a^2+5a+6)-(3a+9)}{(a+3)(a+2)} = 0 \\\\ \dfrac{-8a-19}{(a+3)(a+2)} = 0

If neither <em>a</em> = -3 nor <em>a</em> = -2, we can ignore the denominator:

-8a-19 = 0

Solve for <em>a</em> :

-8a = 19 \\\\ \boxed{a = -\dfrac{19}8}

Find the area of the surface of the part of y=4x+z^2 that lies between the planes
adelina 88 [10]
Y) Recorder 4x and z^2

y=z^2+4x

X)Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolate the variable

x=- \frac{ z^{2}  }{4}+ \frac{y}{4}

Z)Take the root of both sides and solve.

z= \sqrt{-4x+y}, - \sqrt{-4x+y}
