Since the y coordinate is the same for both points we only need to know the change in the x coordinates to find the distance between these two points.

5--12=17

So these two points are 17 units apart.

Hey!

Hope this helps...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Questions like these are really simple to answer, for one, all you have to know is <em>R</em><em>ise over Run</em><em> </em>(or <em>Rise/Run</em>)...

This being:
<em>Rise: </em><em>the distance from one y value to the other...
Run: the distance from one x value to the other...</em>

<em>
</em>

<em />Naturally graph points are represented as (x, y).
So, all we need to is do the math....

For Rise: the distance from <em>5</em> to <em>-12</em> is <em>17</em><em />...
For Run: the distance from <em>3.5 </em>(or 3 1/2)<em> </em>to <em>3.5</em> is 0, but because the denominator of ANY fraction can never be 0, we will change it to 1...

So, our equation looks like: 17/1 (or 17 over 1)...
And our answer is: The 2 points are EXACTLY 17 units apart...

A cockroach traveling 2 feet per second takes how long to scurry a distance of 46 feet?

Answer:

23 Seconds

The roach is going 2 feet per second so you can split the amount of feet in half because he will go the same distance 2 times as fast.

Find the perimeter of the following triangle. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

vladimir2022 [97]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1. The perimeter (P) is the length around the triangle.

step 2. P = 6 + 5 + L (the length of the hypotenuse)

step 3. L = sqrt(6^2 + 5^2) = sqrt(61) where sqrt is the square root

step 4. P = 11 + sqrt(61) = 18.81.

Can anyone help me solve 23, 24?

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Problem 23) $y=3x+6$

Problem 24) $y=-\frac{1}{3}x-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have

$A(0,2)\ B(3,1)$

Substitute the values

$m=\frac{1-2}{3-0}$

$m=-\frac{1}{3}$

step 2

Problem 23

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular then the product of its slopes is equal to minus 1

so

$m1*m2=-1$

Find the slope of the line

we have

$m1=-\frac{1}{3}$

substitute in the equation and solve for m2

$(-\frac{1}{3})*m2=-1$

$m2=3$

with the slope m2 and the point $(0,6)$ find the equation of the line

Remember that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=3$

$b=6$ -----> the given point is the y-intercept

substitute

$y=3x+6$

step 3

Problem 24

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then its slopes are the same

so

with the slope m1 and the point $(0,-5)$ find the equation of the line

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=-\frac{1}{3}$

$b=-5$ -----> the given point is the y-intercept

substitute

$y=-\frac{1}{3}x-5$
