X= y-2

2x+3y=21
⇒ 2(y-2)+3y=21
⇒ 2y-4+3y= 21 (distributive property)
⇒ (2y+3y)-4= 21 (combine like terms)
⇒ 5y= 21+4
⇒ 5y= 25
⇒ y= 25/5
⇒ y= 5

The final answer is y=5~

Find the distance between points P(5, 1) and Q(3, 4) to the nearest tenth

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

$\sqrt{13}$ units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is $d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$ where $d$ is the distance between points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ . Let $(x_1,y_1)\rightarrow(5,1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)\rightarrow(3,4)$ , thus:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(3-5)^2+(4-1)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(3)^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{4+9}\\\\d=\sqrt{13}$

Therefore, the distance between points P(5,1) and Q(3,4) is $\sqrt{13}$ units.
