What is the relationship between coordinates and distance

1 answer:

6 0

Coordinates in the cartesian plane very well have distances from each other. Therefore, some innovative mathematicians derived the distance formula in order to easily calculate the distance of two points in the plane. The distance formula is:

$d= \sqrt{( x_{1}- x_{2} )^{2}+( y_{1}- y_{2} )^{2} }$

What is the value of s in the equation 3r = 10 + 5s, when r = 10

Bad White [126]

3r = 10 + 5s , r = 10
plug in the value of "r" into the equation:
3(10) = 10 +5s
30 = 10 + 5s
subtract 10 from both sides:
20 = 5s
divide both sides by 5:
4 = s
s = 4

If (2,3) is reflected over the y axis what is the new coordinates

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

(-2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you reflect a point across the y-axis, the y-coordinate remains the same, but the x-coordinate is transformed into its opposite (its sign is changed). Notice that B is 5 horizontal units to the right of the y-axis, and B' is 5 horizontal units to the left of the y-axis. the y-axis is the point (-x,y).
