$\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
% (a,b)
C&({{ -1}}\quad ,&{{ 4}})\quad 
% (c,d)
D&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})
\end{array}\qquad 
% distance value
d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}
\\\\\\
CD=\sqrt{[2-(-1)]^2+(0-4)^2}\implies CD=\sqrt{(2+1)^2+(-4)^2}
\\\\\\
CD=\sqrt{9+16}\implies CD=\sqrt{25}\implies CD=5$

Use the distance formula: sqrt[(x1-x2)^2 - (y1-y2)^2]

x1: -1
x2: 2
y1: 4
y2: 0

Answer: 5

matt can buy an 8-ounce jar of salsa for $2.79 or a 15-ounce jar os salsa for $5.54. which jar has the best unit rate?

oee [108]

8/2.79 = 1/2.867, or $2.86 per each oz
15/5.54 = 2.707/1, or 2 oz for every 1 dollar

the 15 oz jar of salsa has the better unit rate

hope this helps

How many gallons of gas are left after driving 200 miles

BaLLatris [955]

The equation y = -0.04x + 12 gives the number of gallons of gas in your car where x is the number of miles drivene

easy

y=gas left
x=miles

sub 200 for x
y=-0.04(200)+12
y=-8+12
y=4

4 gallons left

A square purple rug has a orange square in the center. The side length of the orange square is x inches. The width of the purple

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

578 + 48 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the area of the purple band is as follows:

Area of the green square = side^2 = x^ square inches

And, the area of the orange square = side^2

The side would be = = 12 + 12 +x = 24 + x

And, now the area would be = (x + 24)^2

Now the area of the orange band is

= Area of the orange square area of the green square

= (x + 24)^2 - x^2

= x^2 + 24^2 + 48 - x^2

= 578 + 48 square inches

30 points!!<br> What is the sum of the first six terms of the series?<br> 48 - 12 + 3 - 0.75 +...

Lunna [17]

Answer:

The sum of the first six terms is 38.39

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence since the common difference between each term is $-\frac{1}{4}$

Thus, $r=-\frac{1}{4}$

To find the sum of first six terms, we need to find the fifth and sixth term of the sequence.

To find the fifth term:

The general form of geometric sequence is $a_{n}=a_{1} \cdot r^{n-1}$

To find the fifth term, substitute $n=5$ in $a_{n}=a_{1} \cdot r^{n-1}$

$\begin{aligned}a_{5} &=(48) \cdot\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)^{5-1} \\&=(48) \cdot\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)^{4} \\&=(48)\left(\frac{1}{256}\right) \\a_{5} &=0.1875\end{aligned}$

To find the sixth term, substitute $n=6$ in $a_{n}=a_{1} \cdot r^{n-1}$

$\begin{aligned}a_{6} &=(48) \cdot\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)^{6-1} \\&=(48) \cdot\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)^{5} \\&=(48)\left(-\frac{1}{1024}\right) \\a_{5} &=-0.046875\end{aligned}$

To find the sum of the first six terms:

The general formula to find Sn for $|r|$ is $S_{n}=\frac{a\left(1-r^{n}\right)}{1-r}$

$\begin{aligned}S_{6} &=\frac{48\left(1-\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)^{6}\right)}{1-\left(-\frac{1}{4}\right)} \\&=\frac{48\left(1-\frac{1}{4096}\right)}{1+\frac{1}{4096}} \\&=\frac{48(0.95)}{5} \\&=\frac{48(0.9998)}{5} \\&=\frac{48(0.9998)}{5} \\&=\frac{47.9904}{5} \\&=38.39\end{aligned}$

Thus, the sum of first six terms is 38.39
