4.5/3= 1.5

It is 1.5 times bigger than the smaller triangle.

So,

5*1.5= 7.5

x= 7.5

What is the distance between the points (21,-30) and (3,8)

Scilla [17]

Answer:

approximately 42.05

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the distance formula is $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2} +(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2} }$ , so if we use (3,8) as point 2 and (21, -30) as point 1 (note that these are interchangeable), we know that

x₂=3

y₂=8

x₁=21

y₁=-30

Then, we can plug it into the formula to get $\sqrt{(3-21)^{2} +(8-(-30))^{2 }} = \sqrt{18^{2}+38^{2}}=sqrt{1769}= 42.05 (approximately)$

aalyn [17]

Use the expression:

y₂ - y₁
--------
x₂ - x₁

choose one set to be your ₁, and the other to be your ₂. Plug them in

3 - 2 1
------- = ----------
5 - (-2) 7

your slope will be 1/7

Ms. Chloe has 5 cups of popcorn, which she is serving as a snack to a group of children. Each serving is 1/4 of a cup. How many

notka56 [123]

20 children can get a serving of popcorn

Since each serving is 1/4 of a cup, each cup can provide for 4 children. Since there are 5 total cups, multiplying 5 by 4 will give you 20.
