Consider the right triangle HBF. The Pythagorean theorem tells you ...
HF² = HB² + BF²
The lengths HB and BF can be determined by counting grid squares, or by subtracting coordinates. Here, it is fairly convenient to count grid squares. When we do that, we find ...
HB = 2
BF = 5
Using these values in the equation above, we get
HF² = 2² + 5²
HF² = 4 + 25 = 29
Taking the square root gives the length HF.
HF = √29
Answer:
x= 29/11 or y= 25/11
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - y= 3 ...........equation 1
x + 5y= 14 ............equation 2
Make x the subject of the formula in equation 2
x= 14 - 5y ..............equation 3
Substitute x=14 - 5y in equation 1
2(14- 5y) - y=3
28 - 10y - y=3
Collect like terms
-10y - y=3 - 28
-11y= -25
divide both sides by coefficient of y
-11y/-11 = -25/-11
y= 25/11
Substitute y= 25/11 in equation 3
x=14 - 5(25/11)
x= 14 - 125/11
x= 29/11
Answer:
In common scientific notation, any nonzero quantity can be expressed in two parts: sufficient whose absolute value is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10, and a power of 10 by which the coefficient is multiplied. In some writings, the coefficients are closer to zero by one order of magnitude. In this scheme, any nonzero quantity is expressed in two parts: a coefficient whose absolute value is greater than or equal to 0.1 but less than 1, and a power of 10 by which the coefficient is multiplied. The quantity zero is denoted as 0 unless precision is demanded, in which case the requisite number of significant digits are written out
If you plot the coordinates on a piece of graph paper your answer would come out too (1,-8)
