The distance between the origin and (-3,-4) can be modeled with a triangle. The horizontal distance and vertical distance are two legs, and the distance between the origin and the point is the hypotenuse.

Since we are dealing with distance, we will use absolute values for the distances.

The origin is at (0,0), and the point is at (-3,-4). Add the x-values and y-values:

|0 + -3| = |-3| = 3

|0 + -4| = |-4| = 4

The two legs of the triangles are 3 and 4.

We'll use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance. Square the two legs' lengths:

(3^2 + 4^2) = x^2 = (9 + 16) = 25 = x^2

Square root both sides to get x by itself:

\boxed{x = 5}

The distance between the origin and (-3,-4) will be 5.

Tasya [4]

Answer:

Rate = 6.56%

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal (P) = $5000

Interest (I) = $6312

Time (T) = 4 years

Rate (r) = ?

This question is involves simple interest and with the formula, we can easily plug in the values to find the rate.

S.I = P(1 + rt)

S.I = simple interest

P = principal

R = Rate

T = Time

6312 = 5000(1 + r*4)

6312 = 5000 + 5000*4r

6312 - 5000 = 20000r

1312 = 20000r

r = 1312 / 20000

r = 0.0656

Rate are calculated in percentage hence we'll multiply it by 100

R = 6.56%
