Then cross multiply

15x = 900

x = 60

There were orignally 60 pencils

Which expression gives the distance between the points (5, 1) and (9, -6)?
Vesna [10]
So the distance formula: d = rad (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2
it doesn't matter what order you do, you just have to make sure it's a y coordinate for y and an x coordinate for x.
rad (9-5)^2 + ((-6)-1)^2
rad 4^2 + (-7)^2
rad 16 + 49
rad 65
