Use the distance formula to find the length of the segment A(1, 2) to B(5, 2)

1 answer:

4 0

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ A(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad B(\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ AB=\sqrt{(5-1)^2+(2-2)^2}\implies AB=\sqrt{4^2+0}\implies AB=4$

An 18 pound turkey cooks for 4.5 hours. How long will it take for a 12 pound turkey to cook?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

3 hours

18x = 54

Divide by 18

18x/18 = 54/18

Mia opens a coffee shop in the first week of January. The function W(x) = 0.002x3 - 0.01x2 models the total number of customers

Len [333]

We need to know the function that models the difference in the number of customers visiting the two stores.
We know the function that models the number of customers in the cafeteria
W (x) = 0.002x3 - 0.01x2
We also know the function that models the number of customers who visit the ice cream parlor
R (x) = x2 - 4x + 13
Therefore the difference, D (x), in the number of customers visiting the two stores is:
D (x) = W (x) - R (x)
D (x) = 0.002x ^ 3 - 0.01x ^ 2 - (x ^ 2 -4x +13)
D (x) = 0.002x ^ 3 - 0.01x ^ 2 - x ^ 2 + 4x -13

D (x) = 0.002x ^ 3 - 1.01x ^ 2 + 4x -13
