Find the distance between the points.<br> (r, s) and (0, 0)
zhenek [66]

Answer:  \sqrt{r^2+s^2

=====================================================

Reason:

Plot the points (0,0) and (r,s). You can place (r,s) anywhere you want.

Connect the two points mentioned and form a right triangle such that the segment from (0,0) to (r,s) is the hypotenuse of said right triangle.

The horizontal leg has a length of r-0 = r units, while the vertical leg will be 's' units.

Check out the diagram below.

We then apply the pythagorean theorem to say r^2+s^2 = h^2 where h is the hypotenuse. Solving for h gets us h = \sqrt{r^2+s^2}. We only focus on the positive square root since a negative hypotenuse makes no sense.

Since we made the hypotenuse the segment with endpoints (r,s) and (0,0), this means the hypotenuse length and the distance are the same thing.

Therefore, the distance from (r,s) to (0,0) is \sqrt{r^2+s^2}

As an alternative, you can use the distance formula to get the same answer. The distance formula is effectively the pythagorean theorem phrased a different way.

A home gardener estimates that 18 apple trees will produce an average yield of 80 apples per tree. But because of the size of th
aliina [53]

19 trees should be planted to maximize the total

<h3>How many trees should be planted to maximize the total</h3>

From the question, we have the following parameters:

Number of apples, x = 18

Yield, f(x) = 80 per tree

When the number of apple trees is increased (say by x).

We have:

Trees = 18 + x

The yield decreases by four apples per tree.

So, we have

Yield = 80 - 4x

So, the profit function is

P(x) = Apples * Yield

This gives

P(x) = (18 + x) *(80 - 4x)

Expand the bracket

P(x) = 1440 - 72x + 80x - 4x^2

Differentiate the function

P'(x) = 0 - 72 + 80 - 8x

Evaluate the like terms

P'(x) = 8 - 8x

Set P'(x) to 0

8 - 8x = 0

Divide through by 8

1 - x = 0

Solve for x

x = 1

Recall that:

Trees = 18 + x

So, we have

Trees = 18 + 1

Evaluate

Trees = 19

Hence, 19 trees should be planted to maximize the total

Solve the inequality: -6n - 12 &gt;= 3(-n + 12)
Verizon [17]

Answer:

-16 > n or n < -16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can write the inequality and distribute.

-6n-12 > 3(-n+12)

-6n-12 > -3n+36

Get rid of a variable first (it makes solving a lot easier). We can add 6n to both sides.

-6n-12 > -3n+36

<u>+6n          +6n</u>

-12 > 3n+36

Now, we can subtract 36 on both sides.

-12 > 3n+36

<u>-36         -36</u>

-48 > 3n

Divide by 3 on both sides.

-48 > 3n

<u>/3       /3</u>

-16 > n or (if it's easier) n < -16

Hope this helps!! Have a wonderful day C:

I will give brainliest fast please I will give points please explain well
ANEK [815]

If the equal is 55x + 35y = 200

x: time-driven at 55 miles/hour

y: time-driven at 35 miles/hour

If the car spends 2.5 hours at 35 miles per hour, then it drove:

 55x + 35(2.5) = 200

    55x =35

       y = 112.5

There the drive spent about 2.5-hour driving at 55 mph.

Hope it helps!
