What is the distance between the points (-2,1) and (3,7)

Mathematics

Answer:

Distance ≈ 7.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points in a coordinate plane can be found by forming a right triangle and using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance.  Pythagorean Theorem has the following formula:  a² + b² = c², where 'a' and 'b' are the legs of the triangle and 'c' is the hypotenuse, or the distance between the given points.  In this case, the distance on the 'x' axis (from -2 to 3) is 5 and the distance on the 'y' axis (from 1 to 7) is 6.  When we put these values into the equation:  5² + 6² = c² or 25 + 36 = c²

61 = c²  so, take the square root of each side:  √62 = √c²  or c ≈ 7.8

James can jog twice as fast as he can walk. He was able to jog the first 9 miles to his grandmother’s house, but then he tired a
ipn [44]

Let the speed of walking of James = x mile/hour

            speed of jogging = 2x mile/hour

9/2x + 1.5/x = 2

or, (9 + 3)/2x = 2

or, 12 = 4x

or, x = 3

Average speed of walking = 3 mile/hour

Average speed of jogging = 2 * 3 = 6 mile/hour

Find the length of AB. help asap !!!
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

AB = sqrt 74 = 8.602

Step-by-step explanation:

simple:

a^2+b^2=c^2

5^2+7^2=74

ab=sqrt 74

Formula :

Distance between two points = √(xB−xA)2+(yB−yA)2(xB-xA)2+(yB-yA)2

Solution :

Distance between two points = √(8−3)2+(2−9)2(8-3)2+(2-9)2

= √52+(−7)252+(-7)2

= √25+4925+49

= √7474 = 8.6023

Distance between points (3, 9) and (8, 2) is 8.6023

An engineering firm designs a custom hexagonal screw for a computer board. A sketch of the top of the screw is below. To the nea
Sphinxa [80]

The area of the screw head is 93.5m².

<h3>How to calculate the area?</h3>

The area of the hexagon can be illustrated based on the formula:

A = 3✓3/2 × a²

Base = 12.

Height = 3.

Area of each triangle = 0.5 × 12 × 3 = 18

Area of the rectangle = 12 × 6 = 72

Therefore the area of the screw head will be:

= 3√3/2 × 72

= 93.5m²
