Answer: C. |-4 - 3|
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
x = -4
y = 3
The distance between them is the difference. The mathematical operation for difference is subtraction.
Distance is a unit of measurement. Measurements cannot be negative so the absolute value sign is used to ensure the difference is positive.
Step-by-step explanation:
8-3 = 5,
3-5 = -2 = the x coordinate of B
-2-4 =-6,
-2-6 =-8 = the y coordinate of B
(-2,-8) is the point B
A is 5 to the right of the midpoint, so B is 5 to the left of the midpoint
A is 6 up from the midpoint so B is 6 down from the midpoint
Answer:
24 (units)
Step-by-step explanation:
Because Quadrilateral EFGH is being dilated by a scale factor of 3/4, this means that each side of E'F'G'H' gets multiplied by 3/4. In this case, we are going to divide by 3/4 to return to the original figure (or multiply by 4/3 since that is the reciprocal)
This means that side HE is 18/(3/4) = 18(4/3) = 72/3 = 24 units
Answer:
c = 8.4m is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 6m
b = 6m
c = ?
According to the Pythagorean theorem,
a² + b² = c²
6² + 6² = c²
36 + 36 = c²
c² = 72
c = 8.4m
∴ The mouse runs 8.4 m from the opposite corners of the room.
