Answer:

StartRoot 2 squared + 6 squared EndRoot

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

A(4,3) and B(-2,1)

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

substitute the given values

$AB=\sqrt{(1-3)^{2}+(-2-4)^{2}}$

$AB=\sqrt{(-2)^{2}+(-6)^{2}}$

$AB=\sqrt{40}\ units$

therefore

StartRoot 2 squared + 6 squared EndRoot

Determine the function f(x) satisfying the given conditions.

Furkat [3]

<span>f''(x) means function is of grade 1
f(x) = ax + b

f'(x) = a
f'(5) = 1 </span>⇒ a = 1

f(4) = -2
f(4) = 1×4 + b
-2 = 4 + b
b = -6

f(x) = x - 6
