Answer:
Derived from the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance formula is used to find the distance between two points in the plane. The Pythagorean Theorem,
a
2
+
b
2
=
c
2
, is based on a right triangle where a and b are the lengths of the legs adjacent to the right angle, and c is the length of the hypotenuse. The relationship of sides
|
x
2
−
x
1
|
and
|
y
2
−
y
1
|
to side d is the same as that of sides a and b to side c. We use the absolute value symbol to indicate that the length is a positive number because the absolute value of any number is positive. (For example,
|
−
3
|
=
3
. ) The symbols
|
x
2
−
x
1
|
and
|
y
2
−
y
1
|
indicate that the lengths of the sides of the triangle are positive. To find the length c, take the square root of both sides of the Pythagorean Theorem.
c

=
a

b

→
c
=

a

b

It follows that the distance formula is given as
d

=
(
x

−
x

)

+
(
y

−
y

)

→
d
=
√
(
x

−
x
1
)
2
+
(
y

−
y

)

We do not have to use the absolute value symbols in this definition because any number squared is positive.
A GENERAL NOTE: THE DISTANCE FORMULA
Given endpoints
(

and
(
x

, the distance between two points is given by
d

)

Answer:
- 10 liters of orange juice
- 5 liters of champagne
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the number of liters of champagne Lauren uses. Then (15-c) will be the number of liters of orange juice. The total cost of the mix will be ...
12c +1.50(15-c) = 5.00(15)
10.5c = 52.50 . . . . . subtract 22.50, simplify
52.50/10.5 = c = 5 . . . . divide by the coefficient of c
Then the amount of orange juice is ...
15 -c = 15 -5 = 10 . . . . liters
Lauren should use 5 liters of champagne and 10 liters of orange juice.
