If o<span>n a coordinate grid, Ming's house is located 2 blocks to the right and (I suppose also 2) blocks up from (0. 0), then the ordered pair that describes the location of Ming's house is (2,2) (moving right 2 units from some point you have to add 2 units to the x-coordinate of the point from which you are moving and moving up 2 units from this point you have to add 2 units to y-coordinate of the point from which you are moving up).

If Joe's house is located 3 blocks to the right and 2 blocks down from Ming's house, then the ordered pair that describes the location of Ming's house is (2+3,2-2), that is (5,0) <span><span>(moving right 3 units from some point you have to add 3 units to

We are given a relationship between the sides of a rectangle, that is, the length of one of its sides is 5 less two times its width, and we are asked to find an expression for the area. Let's remember that the area of a rectangle is equal to the product of the length of its side by its width. Let "w" be the length of the rectangle and "L" its lenght, then the area is given by the following formula:

We can use the relationship given in the problem, that is, its length being five less two times its width, that is:

Replacing in the formula for the area we get:

Now we use the distributive law:
Answer:
She uses 243 beads for the 5th string.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, we can see a pattern. If she triples the number of beads in each of the next strings, that means that we just take the last number and multiply by 3. If the first string uses 3, then:
The second uses 9, 3 * 3 = 9
The third uses 27, 9 * 3 = 27
The fourth uses 81, 27 * 3 = 81
And the 5th uses 243, 81 * 3 = 243.
1) Substituting into point-slope form, the equation of the line is y-6=⅓(x-3), which rearranges to:
So, we can now substitute in the coordinates of each of the options to see which point lies on the line.
- 3 = ⅓(6) + 5 -> 3 = 7, which is false.
- 6 = ⅓(7) + 5 -> 6 = 22/3, which is false.
- -3 = ⅓(-3) + 5 -> -3 = 4, which is false.
- 3 = ⅓(-6) + 5 -> 3 = 3, which is true.
So, the answer is (4) (-6, 3)
2) Substituting into point-slope form, the equation of the line is y - 5 = ¾(x-2), which rearranges to:
- y - 5 = 0.75x - 1.5
- y = 0.75x + 3.5
So, we can now substitute in the coordinates of each of the options to see which point lies on the line.
- 8 = 0.75(6)+3.5 -> 8 = 8, which is true.
- 9 = 0.75(5) + 3.5 -> 9 = 7.25, which is false.
- 1 = 0.75(-1) + 3.5 -> 1 = 2.75, which is false.
- 2 = 0.75(6) + 3.5 -> 2 = 8, which is false.
So, the answer is (1) (6, 8).
