The distance between the two points (4,2) and (8,k) is 5 units. Find value(s)of k

1 answer:

5 0

D^2 = (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2
d^2 = (8 - 4)^2 + (k - 2)^2
d = 5 so
5^2 = 4^2 + k^2 - 4k + 4
25 = 16 + k^2 - 4k + 4
25 = 20 + k^2 - 4k
0 = k^2 - 4k - 5
0 = (k - 5)(k + 1)
k has 2 answers
k - 5 = 0
k = 5
k + 1 = 0
k = - 1

The two answers are
(8, 5) and (8, -1) <<<< answer

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

D, the observed frequency of landing heads up gets closer to the expected frequency based on the probability of the coin landing heads up.

Step-by-step explanation:

As of now, the observed frequency states that the coin will land on heads 4/12 times. The expected frequency states that the coin will land on heads 50% of the time, or 6/12 times. As the number of trials increases, the observed frequency will get closer to the expected frequency.

Answer:

<h2>Reflection.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The image attached shows a representation of the problem, there you can observe the congruence between triangles.

Also, using the images you can easily deduct the transformation we need to map one triangle onto the other one, we just need to reflect one triangle across and axis that pass through point M, such line acts like a mirror.

Therefore, the right answer is reflection.
