Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

A (1,6)------> location Brianna's house on a map

B (5,3)------> location Jordan's house on a map

we know that

One possible path from Brianna's house to Jordan's house it's a straight line ( the shortest distance)

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

<em>Find the distance points AB</em>

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

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

substitute the values

$d_A_B=\sqrt{(3-6)^{2}+(5-1)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{25}$

$d_A_B=5\ units$

The distance from Brianna's house to Jordan's house is 5 units

Answer:

A = 140

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle:

A = 1/2bh

Given:

b = 20

h = 14

Work:

A = 1/2bh

A = 1/2(20)(14)

A = 10(14)

A = 140

Find the x-intercepts of the parabola with vertex (1,1) and y-intercept (0,-3). Write your answer in this form (x of 1 , y of 1)

Vikki [24]

Remember that the vertex form of a parabola or quadratic equation is:

y=a(x-h)^2+k, where (h,k) is the "vertex" which is the maximum or minimum point of the parabola (and a is half the acceleration of the of the function, but that is maybe too much :P)

In this case we are given that the vertex is (1,1) so we have:

y=a(x-1)^2+1, and then we are told that there is a point (0,-3) so we can say:

-3=a(0-1)^2+1

-3=a+1

-4=a so our complete equation in vertex form is:

y=-4(x-1)^2+1

Now you wish to know where the x-intercepts are. x-intercepts are when the graph touches the x-axis, ie, when y=0 so

0=-4(x-1)^2+1 add 4(x-1)^2 to both sides

4(x-1)^2=1 divide both sides by 4

(x-1)^2=1/4 take the square root of both sides

x-1=±√(1/4) which is equal to

x-1=±1/2 add 1 to both sides

x=1±1/2

So x=0.5 and 1.5, thus the x-intercept points are:

(0.5, 0) and (1.5, 0) or if you like fractions:

(1/2, 0) and (3/2, 0) :P
