I kinda need help<br> With this ‍

vredina [299]

Distance formula = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2
so
√(2-(-4))^2 + (0-1)^2
= √(6)^2 + (-1)^2
= √36 + 1
= √37

One pound of grapes costs $1.55. Which equation correctly shows a pair of equivalent ratios that can be used to find the cost of

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Given the statement: One pound of grapes costs $1.55.

Let x be be the cost of 3.5 pounds of grapes.

Equivalent ratios states that the two ratios that express the same relationship between numbers.

Therefore, by equivalent ratio:

$\frac{1 pound}{cost of 1 grapes} =\frac{3.5 pound}{cost of 3.5 grapes}$

then, we have;

$\frac{1}{1.55}=\frac{3.5}{x}$

Cross multiply the above equation; we hve

$x = 1.55 \times 3.5$

x = 5.425

therefore, the cost of 3.5 pounds of grapes is, $5.425

Calculate the distance between points (-8,-2) and (4,3)

Kamila [148]

To calculate the distance between two points, we can use a formula that is a variation Pythagorean Theorem. Look:

$\mathsf{d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}}$

"d" represents the distance and coordinates are expressed as follows: (x, y)

Let's go to the calculations.

$\mathsf{d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{(4-(-8))^2+(3-(-2))^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{(4+8)^2+(3+2)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{(12)^2+(5)^2}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{144+25}}\\\\ \mathsf{d=\sqrt{169}}\\\\ \underline{\mathsf{d=13}}$

The answer is 13 uc.

Find the percent of each number 3.5% of $1,200

barxatty [35]

Answer: 38.19

Step-by-step explanation: Well I like to find 1% first, so I would do 1,200/100. This equals 10.91.

But now seeing as we want 3.5%, we would multiply 10.91 by 3.5. This would give us 38.19 (or 38.18 if you don't round up)

hope this helps and i hope i understood your question correctly
