Length (2, 6) to (-4, 6) is sqrt((x2 - x1))^2 + (y2 - y1)^2) = sqrt((-4 -2)^2 + (6 - 6)^2) = sqrt((-6)^2 + 0) = 6

Length (2, 6) to (-4, 4) is sqrt((-4 - 2)^2 + (4 - 6)^2) = sqrt((-6)^2 + (-2)^2) = sqrt(36 + 4) = sqrt(40)  = 2sqrt(10) units

Length (-4, 6) to (-4, 4) is sqrt((-4 - (-4))^2 + (4 - 6)^2) = sqrt(0^2 + (-2)^2) = 2

So the length of the longest side is 2sqrt(10) units

Beakers X and Y contain some water. If 50 ml of water is transferred from Beaker X
eduard

Answer:

140 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of water in Beaker X and y be the amount of water in Beaker Y.

<u>Then we get following equations:</u>

<u>First part</u>

  • x - 50 = 3/7(y + 50)
  • 7x -350 = 3y + 150
  • 7x = 3y + 500

<u>Second part</u>

  • x + 100 = 4(y - 100)
  • x + 100 = 4y - 400
  • x = 4y - 500

<u>Substitute x in first equation:</u>

  • 7(4y - 500) = 3y + 500
  • 28y - 3500 = 3y + 500
  • 28y - 3y = 500 + 3500
  • 25y = 4000
  • y = 4000/25
  • y = 160 ml

<u>Then finding x:</u>

  • x = 4*160 - 500
  • x = 640 - 500
  • x = 140 ml

Initial amount of water in Beaker X is 140 ml, in Beaker Y is 160 ml

Write the following phrase<br> as an<br> inequality: 3 more than twice n is at most 50.
Margarita [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

3 more than twice n = 3+2n

3 more than twice n is atmost 50,

=> 3+2n <= 50 {(3+2n) is less than or equal to 50}
