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.

Solve for y in terms of x <br><br> -8x + 4y = -16

solniwko [45]

Answer:

y=2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

well first you have to move the -8x to the other side where the -16 is. by doing so, the -8x will turn into a POSTIVE 8x. than your problem should look like (4y=8x-16). now that your problem is like that, you want "y" to be alone. so, you divide the 4 by every number. (so you would do 4y/4, 8x/4, and -16/4). than your final product would be: y=2x-4
