Answer:

18 units

Step-by-step explanation:

\boxed{\begin{minipage}{7.4 cm}\underline{Distance between two points}\\\\$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$\\\\\\where $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ are the two points.\\\end{minipage}}

Given endpoints of the line segment:

  • (-10, 9)
  • (5, -1)

To determine the length of the line segment, substitute the given endpoints into the distance formula:

\begin{aligned}\implies d&=\sqrt{(5-(-10))^2+(-1-9)^2}\\&=\sqrt{(15)^2+(-10)^2}\\&=\sqrt{225+100}\\&=\sqrt{325}\\&=18.02775638...\end{aligned}

Therefore, the length of the line segment is 18 units (nearest integer).

The length of the line segment is (b) 18 units

<h3>How to determine the length of the line segment?</h3>

The line segment is given as

ine segment from negative 10 comma 9 to 5 comma negative 1

This can be rewritten as

line segment from (-10, 9) to (5, -1)

The length of the line segment is then calculated using the following distance formula

distance = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

Where

(x, y) = (-10, 9) to (5, -1)

Substitute the known values in the above equation, so, we have the following representation

Length = √[(-10 - 5)² + (9 + 1)²]

Evaluate

Length = 18

Hence, the length is 18 units

Which are the solutions of the equation 4x^2-7x=3x+24​
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 4 to the power of 2 is 16.

Then, you subtract: 16x - 7x

Then, what you are going to see is 9x=3x+24

So, you subtract: 9x - 3x

Finally, you will have 6x=24... You divide: 24/6 and the answer is x=4.

adoni [48]

Answer:

Percent = 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a decimal form of 2/10, we can turn it into percentage by multiplying 0.20 by 100.

=> 0.20 by 100

=> 20%

Therefore, 20% is our answer.

Triangle ABC is similar to Triangle FGH. What is the value of x in centimeters?
EleoNora [17]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the triangle ABC is similar to triangle FGH.

We need to determine the value of x.

<u>Value of x:</u>

Since, the triangles are similar, then their sides are proportional.

Thus, we have;

\frac{AC}{FH}=\frac{AB}{GF}=\frac{BC}{GH}

Let us consider the proportion \frac{AB}{GF}=\frac{BC}{GH} to determine the value of x.

Substituting AB = 9 cm, GF = 13.5 cm, BC = 15 cm and GH = x, we get;

\frac{9}{13.5}=\frac{15}{x}

Cross multiplying, we get;

9x=15 \times 13.5

9x=202.5

 x=22.5 \ cm

Thus, the value of x is 22.5 cm

Hence, Option F is the correct answer.
