Answer:

<h2>The answer is 13.5 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

$d = \sqrt{ ({x_1 - x_2})^{2} + ({y_1 - y_2})^{2} } \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

R(7, –7) to U(–3, 2).

The distance between them is

$|RU | = \sqrt{ ({7 + 3})^{2} + ( { - 7 - 2})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {10}^{2} + ({ - 9})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{100 + 81} \\ = \sqrt{181} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ = 13.4536240...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>13.5 units to the nearest tenth</h3>

Hope this helps you

Some cows are brown. Fido is not a cow. Fido must be brown.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

B.) Invalid Argument

Step-by-step explanation:

Just because Fido is not a cow does not mean that he will automatically be brown. It is already stated that some cows(something Fido is not) are colored brown.

Write the equation of circle b with center B(-2,3) that passes through (1,2)

professor190 [17]

Answer:

$(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 10$

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation for circle is

$(x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2$

where point (a,b) is coordinate of center of circle and r is the radius.

______________________________________________________

Given

center of circle =((-2,3)

let r be the radius of circle

Plugging in this value of center in standard equation for circle given above we have

$(x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2 \ substitute (a,b) \ with (-2,3) \\=>(x-(-2))^2 + (y-3)^2 = r^2 \\=>(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = r^2 (1)$

Given that point (1,2 ) passes through circle. Hence this point will satisfy the above equation of circle.

Plugging in the point (1,2 ) in equation 1 we have

$\\=>(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = r^2 \\=> (1+2)^2 + (2-3)^2 = r^2\\=> 3^2 + (-1)^2 = r^2\\=> 9 + 1 = r^2\\=> 10 = r^2\\=> r^2 = 10\\$

now we have value of r^2 = 10, substituting this in equation 1 we have

Thus complete equation of circle is $=>(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = r^2\\=>(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 10$

One solution to a quadratic function, h, is given.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

B. The other solution to function $h$ is $-4-i\,7$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

From Algebra, we remember that quadratic functions of the form $a\cdot x^{2}+b\cdot x + c$ has solutions of the form:

$x = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a\cdot c}}{2\cdot a}$ , where both are complex if and only if $\sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a \cdot c}< 0$ .

Hence, if one solution of the quadratic function is $-4+i\,7$ , then the other solution is $-4-i\,7$ . The correct answer is B.
