Two cans of paint and 1 brush cost $37. Four cans of paint and 3 brushes cost $81. Find the cost of one can of paint.

1 answer:

8 0

2c + b = 37 ....multiply by -3
4c + 3b = 81
------------------
-6c - 3b = - 111 (result of multiplying by -3)
4c + 3b = 81
------------------add
-2c = - 30
c = -30/-2
c = 15 <== $ 15 for a can of paint

and it costs $ 7 for each brush

Find Distance (4,6) (-4,-3)

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

$\sqrt{145}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula states that the distance between two points $(a,b)$ and $(c,d)$ is $\sqrt{(a-c)^2+(b-d)^2}$ .

The two points we have are $(4,6)$ and $(-4,-3)$ . Plugging these numbers into the distance formula, we have

$\sqrt{(4-(-4))^2+(6-(-3))^2$ .

Simplifying with order of operations, first using the distributive property, gives

$\sqrt{(4+4)^2+(6+3)^2$ .

Squaring and adding gives

$\sqrt{(4+4)^2+(6+3)^2}=\sqrt{8^2+9^2}\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=\sqrt{64+81}\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=\boxed{\sqrt{145}},$

which is the answer in simplest form. This also rounds to about 12.04.
