Answer:
PQ = 5 units
QR = 8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
P(-3, 3)
Q(2, 3)
R(2, -5)
To determine
The length of the segment PQ
The length of the segment QR
Determining the length of the segment PQ
From the figure, it is clear that P(-3, 3) and Q(2, 3) lies on a horizontal line. So, all we need is to count the horizontal units between them to determine the length of the segments P and Q.
so
P(-3, 3), Q(2, 3)
PQ = 2 - (-3)
PQ = 2+3
PQ = 5 units
Therefore, the length of the segment PQ = 5 units
Determining the length of the segment QR
Q(2, 3), R(2, -5)
(x₁, y₁) = (2, 3)
(x₂, y₂) = (2, -5)
The length between the segment QR is:
Apply radical rule:
Therefore, the length between the segment QR is: 8 units
Summary:
PQ = 5 units
QR = 8 units
Answer:
y = 3x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
When the given points are dilated by a factor of 1/5 about the origin, each of the coordinate values is multiplied by 1/5. The points after dilation are ...
... (2/5, 1/5), (-1/5, -8/5)
The line through these points can be found starting with a 2-point form of the equation for the line.
... y -y1 = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)·(x -x1)
Filling in the point values gives ...
... y -1/5 = (-8/5 -1/5)/(-1/5 -2/5)(x -2/5)
... y = (-9/5)/(-3/5)(x -2/5) +1/5 . . . . simplify parentheses, add 1/5
... y = 3x -1 . . . . . simplify

The graph shows the original points and the line through them in red, and the dilated points and line in green.
