Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2√74 or 17.20 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of w line segment between two points can be found by using the formula

d =  \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} +  ({y1 - y2})^{2}  }  \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

S(-8, 7) and T (6,-3)

The length of ST is

|ST|  =  \sqrt{ ({ - 8 - 6})^{2} +  ({7 + 3})^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{ ({ - 14})^{2} +  {10}^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{196 + 10}  \\  =  \sqrt{296}  \\  = 2 \sqrt{74}  \\  = 17.2046505...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2√74 or 17.20 units</h3>

Hope this helps you

To find the perimeter of this blue figure, add together the shown lengths of the six sides.  

The three measurements on the top have the LCD 4, so we combine 14 3/4, 4 2/4 and 8 2/4.  The sum is 26 7/4, or 27 3/4, or 27.75.

The three measurements on the bottom share the LCD 5, so we can immediately combine them, obtaining 32 8/5, or 33 3/5, or 33.60.

Combining 27.75 and 33.60 results in 61.35, or 61 35/100, or 61 7/20.

The perimeter of the given figure is 61 7/20.

Solve for p.<br><br> 2(p + 1) = 18
n200080 [17]

Answer:

p = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 18 from behind the equal sign to cancel it out. This leaves you with 2(p+1)- 18= 0.

Next you'll need to pull out the terms to work with the beginning of the problem. 2(p+1)- 18= 0 would turn into 2p - 16  = 2(p - 8).

This would leave you with 2= 0, but that's not true so continue on to the variable.

So p - 8= 0 making the answer p = 8
