Answer: This is geometry. Put point C at (-4,-3). Distance from A to C = AC = 5. Distance from C to B = CB = 9. Then ACB is a right triangle with legs AC and CB, and hypotenuse AB, so

AC^2 + CB^2 = AB^2, so

AB = √(AC^2 + CB^2) = √(5^2+9^2) = √(25+81) = √106.


However, in vector algebra, A=(-4,3) and B=(5,-2), and (A-B)=(-9,5).

distance(A,B) = √((A-B) dot (A-B)),

where (x,y) dot (x,y) = x×x + y×y.

So the answer is √((-9,5)dot(-9,5)) = √((-9)^2+5^2) = √(81+25) = √106.


This works in 3D, (x,y,z) dot (x,y,z) = x×x + y×y + z×z. distance(A,B) gives √(x^2+y^2+z^2) for distances in 3 dimensions.


In 4D, distance is √(x^2+y^2+z^2+w^2)


And in infinite dimensional Hilbert space, (x,y,z,a,b,c,...) dot (x,y,z,a,b,c,...) = x×x + ... c×c + .... distance(A,B) gives

√(x^2+...+c^2+...).


And for real valued functions, f(x) dot g(x) is roughly the sum of f(x)×g(x) over uncountably many points x from -infinity to +infinity. It's the area under h(x)=f(x)g(x).

Two farmers each have triangular plots of land in the diagram below with approximate values shown for lengths in feet
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

  • a) Plots are similar
  • b) x= 5577 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Refer to attached</em>

<h3>Question</h3>
  • a) Are the plots of land similar?  
  • b) Find to the exact value of x and rounded to the nearest tenth?
<h3>Solution</h3>

The small triangle have missing angle of 180° - (52° + 58°) = 70°

This is indicating both triangles have same 3 angle measures.

Since all angles are same, the triangles are similar.

<u>Corresponding sides, against corresponding angles are:</u>

  • 6180 and 8240
  • x and 7436

<u>As per property of similarity, the ratio of corresponding sides is same</u>

  • 6180/8240 = x/7436
  • x = 6180*7436/8240
  • x = 5577 feet

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line and through the given point y=-2x+1 point (0,5)
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

y = -2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x+1 is in the form y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

-2 is the slope

Parallel lines have the same slope so our new line will have the same slope

y = -2x+b

The point given is the y intercept (value when x is zero)

b = 5

y = -2x+5

Dharma and Jorge are looking at cell phone plans. A
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Dharma and Jorge should purchase a group plan.

They could save $9.55

Step-by-step explanation:

A group plan will cost an average of $135.95 per month.

An individual plan will cost an average of $72.75 per month.

Two individual plans will cost an average of

\$72.75\cdot 2=\$145.50

per month.

Since $145.50 > $135.95,  Dharma and Jorge should purchase a group plan.

They could save

\$145.50-\$135.95=\$9.55
