Answer:

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{85}\text{, or about 9.22 units}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the distance formula to solve.

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2 +(y_{2}-y_{1})^2}$

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{(1--5)^2 +(-2-5)^2}$

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{(6)^2 +(-7)^2}$

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{36+49}$

$\displaystyle d=\sqrt{85}\text{, or about 9.22 units}$

Len [333]

Dividing the 2nd equation by 2 gives y=2x + 3 which is the same as the too
p line. any answer to one of them is obviously an answer to the other so there are infinitely many solutions

1200+0.075x>=3300 what is the solution to the inequality

miskamm [114]

Solving inequalities is just like solving any other Algebraic problem...look to P.E.M.D.A.S. (Parenthesis, Exponents, Division, Addition, Subtraction). So lets take a look at this problem now.

1200 + 0.075x $\geq$ 3300

Subtract 1200 from both sides...
0.075x $\geq$ 2100

Now divide by 0.075...
x $\geq$ 28000

NOTE: If you divide or multiple by a negative number while solving inequalities, you must flip the sign. Ex: You answer would be x $\leq$ 28000 if you would've multiplied or divided by a negative.
