The red arrows mean the lines are parallel. Since all angles are equal, the larger triangle is similar to the smaller one. Then corresponding sides have the same ratio
(4x -2)/9 = (3x+2)/12
x(4/9 -3/12) = (2/12) +(2/9)
x = (7/18)/(7/36) = 2 . . . . . . . . . corresponding to the 3rd selection

Find the distance between points P(3, -8) Q(7,4). Round to the nearest tenth if necessary

Gnom [1K]

To calculate the distance between two points, we can use a formula that is a variation Pythagorean Theorem. Look:

$\mathsf{d=\sqrt{(x_Q-x_P)^2+(y_Q-y_P)^2}}$

"d" represents the distance and coordinates are expressed as follows: (x, y)

Let's go to the calculations.

$\mathsf{d=\sqrt{(x_Q-x_P)^2+(y_Q-y_P)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{(7-3)^2+(4-(-8))^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{(4)^2+(4+8)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{16+(12)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{16+144}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{160}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=12,649110640673...}\\\\ \underline{\mathsf{d\approxeq12,6}}$

The answer is 12,6 u.c.
