barxatty [35]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{6}{8}=15\dfrac{5}{12}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{6}{8}=2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{6:2}{8:2}=2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\\text{Find}\ LCD:\\\\\text{List of multiples of 3:}\ 0,\ 3,\ 6,\ 9,\ \boxed{12},\ 15,\ ...\\\text{List of multiples of 4:}\ 0,\ 4,\ 8,\ \boxed{12},\ 16,\ ...\\\\12=3\cdot4\\\\\text{therefore}\\\\\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{2\cdot4}{3\cdot4}=\dfrac{8}{12}\\\\\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{3\cdot3}{4\cdot3}=\dfrac{9}{12}\\\\2\dfrac{2}{3}+12\dfrac{3}{4}=2\dfrac{8}{12}+12\dfrac{9}{12}=(2+12)+\dfrac{8+9}{12}=14+\dfrac{17}{12}\\\\=14+1\dfrac{5}{12}=15\dfrac{5}{12}$

What is the distance rounded to the nearest tenth between the points(-5, 3) and (1, -1)?

kakasveta [241]

7.2 units is the distance between the two points (-5,3) and (1, -1).

The formula used for determining the distance between two points is shown below. In case this equation is used for finding the distance between the origin and a point, the value of x1 and y1 would just be equal to zero.

distance = $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2} }$

The given points can be directly substituted for the formula.

Let: x2= 1, x1= -5, y2= -1, and y1= 3

distance = $\sqrt{[1-(-5)]^{2} + (-1 -3)^2 }$

distance = $\sqrt{(6)^2+(-4)^2}$

distance = $\sqrt{52}$ or 7.21 units

When rounded to the nearest tenth, the distance between the two points would be 7.2 units.
