Answer:

12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

B - A = (7, 8) - (-5, 8) = (7 -(-5), 8 -8) = (12, 0)

The distance is then ...

d = √(12² + 0²) = √12²

d = 12

_____

Of course, when you graph these points (actually or mentally), you can see that they are 12 units apart on the line y=8. You don't need to do any fancy calculation to discover the difference between -5 and 7.

How to do I do solving systems of equations by elimination

Andre45 [30]

If you have two equations, you will multiply one of them so it cancels out the other one. For Example, 2x-y=16 3x-y=28You will multiply the second equation by -1 which brings us to 2x-y=16 -3x+y=-28you will add both equations together which will leave you with-x=-12x=12Then, you plug that in. 2x12=24. 24-16=8. 3x12=36 36-8=28 And, You're done!

Given f (x) = -12x + 72, find x when f(x) = 24.

Neko [114]

Answer:

x = 4

Given:

f(x) = -12x + 72

f(x) = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

$= > - 12x + 72 = 24 \\ \\ = > - 12x = 24 - 72 \\ \\ = > \cancel{- }12x = \cancel{-} 48 \\ \\ = > 12x = 48 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{48}{12} \\ \\ = > x = 4$
