Y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 3
(5,2)....x1 = 5 and y1 = 2
now we sub
y - 2 = 3(x - 5) <=== ur answer

Ok so we are given the slope right? That means the line has a rise and run of 3 through the point 5,2 right? So we get y - 2 = 3(x - 5) Right? We are asked to answer it in point slope form right? So that’s the answer br />

The coordinates of the vertices of a polygon are (-2, 1). (-3, 3), (-1, 5), (2, 4), and (2, 1). What is the perimeter of the pol

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

$15.2\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Plot the vertices of the polygon to better understand the problem

we have

$A(-2, 1). B(-3, 3), C(-1, 5), D(2, 4),E(2, 1)$

using a graphing tool

The polygon is a pentagon (the number of sides is 5)

see the attached figure

The perimeter is equal to

$P=AB+BC+CD+DE+AE$

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

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

step 2

Find the distance AB

$A(-2, 1). B(-3, 3)$

substitute in the formula

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

$d=\sqrt{(2)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_A_B=\sqrt{5}=2.24\ units$

step 3

Find the distance BC

$B(-3, 3), C(-1, 5)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(5-3)^{2}+(-1+3)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(2)^{2}+(2)^{2}}$

$d_B_C=\sqrt{8}=2.83\ units$

step 4

Find the distance CD

$C(-1, 5), D(2, 4)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(4-5)^{2}+(2+1)^{2}}$

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

$d_C_D=\sqrt{10}=3.16\ units$

step 5

Find the distance DE

$D(2, 4),E(2, 1)$

substitute in the formula

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

$d=\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$d_D_E=\sqrt{9}\ units$

$d_D_E=3\ units$

step 6

Find the distance AE

$A(-2, 1).E(2, 1)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(2+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$d_A_E=\sqrt{16}\ units$

$d_A_E=4\ units$

step 7

Find the perimeter

$P=AB+BC+CD+DE+AE$

substitute the values

$P=2.24+2.83+3.16+3+4=15.23\ units$

Round to the nearest tenth of a unit

$P=15.2\ units$

Explain how to find the distance between two integers using the difference

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When we want to find the distance between two integers using the difference, the best way is to plot them on number line. And then count distance between them.

For example -3 and -1.

When we want to find difference we have:

-3-(-1)=-2

But distance can not be negative.

Now, we need to count distance between numbers -3 and -1 on the number line.

So we have from -3 to -2, one place and from -2 to -1 one place it is 2 places.

So distance is 2.

Nina [5.8K]

25 - 7 = 18 | 18 - 3 = 15 The school received 15 kits in the box. The reason why is because there are 3 kits that they haven't received yet. Then there were 7 that they already had, so that means there are 10 kits that wont be included in the box.

Peter is at a lumber yard. He gets 2 free boxes of nails for every 10 boards he buys. Write an expression for the number of boxe

Sati [7]

A. The number of 10-boards Peter bought is equal to n divided by 10. Then, each of the 10-boxes will get two boxes of nails. The number of boxes of nails that Peter will have after buying n boards will be,

N = (2)(n/10)

Simplifying,

 N = n/5

b. If the number of boards are 90 then,

N2 = (90/10)(2)(100 nails/box)
N2 = 1800

Answer: 1800
