The perimeter of the triangle is 15.4 units.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The triangle has vertices at (-1,5), (4,2), and (0,0).

To find the perimeter of the triangle, you need to find the distance of the three points which is the length of the three sides of the triangle.

Let us consider the points as A (-1,5) and B (4,2) and C (0,0).

<u>The distance formula is given by :</u>

⇒ \sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2}  }

<u>Distance of AB :</u>

A (-1,5) ⇒ (x1,y1)

B (4,2) ⇒ (x2,y2)

⇒ \sqrt{(4+1)^{2}+(2-5)^{2}  }

⇒ \sqrt{5^{2}+-3^{2}  }

⇒ \sqrt{25+9}

⇒ \sqrt{34}

⇒ 5.8

∴ The length of the side AB of the triangle is 5.8 units.

<u>Distance of BC :</u>

B (4,2) ⇒ (x1,y1)

C (0,0) ⇒ (x2,y2)

⇒ \sqrt{(0-4)^{2}+(0-2)^{2}  }

⇒ \sqrt{16+4  }

⇒ \sqrt{20}

⇒ 4.5

∴ The length of the side BC of the triangle is 4.5 units.

<u>Distance of CA :</u>

C (0,0) ⇒ (x1,y1)

A (-1,5) ⇒ (x2,y2)

⇒ \sqrt{(-1-0)^{2}+(5-0)^{2}  }

⇒ \sqrt{1+25}

⇒ \sqrt{26}

⇒ 5.1

∴ The length of the side CA of the triangle is 5.1 units.

Now, the perimeter of the triangle is given by :

Perimeter = Sum of the lengths of all three sides of the triangle.

⇒ 5.8 + 4.5 + 5.1

⇒ 15.4 units.

∴ The perimeter of the triangle is 15.4 units.

Help I need to know how to solve for x
lara [203]

Answer:

the answer would be x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

the lines the have 1 line across it equal the same. same for the ones with 2. for example AB has one line across so it also equals CD because it has one line across (in the little octagonal shape). BC has two lines and so does AH so BC=AH

Rewrite the following expression using the properties of logarithms: log2z + 2log2z + 4log9y + 12log9x - 2log2y
Mashcka [7]

The rewritten form of the expression given in the task content in which case, the properties of the logarithm are used is; log2(z³/y²) + log9(y⁴x¹²).

<h3>What is the equivalent expression to the logarithmic expression given in the task content?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the logarithmic expression given in the task content is;

log2z + 2log2z + 4log9y + 12log9x - 2log2y

In which case, all terms are to their respective logarithmic bases.

Hence, it follows that; we have;

log2z³ - log2y² + log9y⁴ + log9x¹²

= log2(z³/y²) + log9(y⁴x¹²)

6. Identify the recursive formula for the sequence 3, –15, 75, –375, . . .
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

first option

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is

r = - 15 ÷ 3 = 75 ÷ - 15 = - 375 ÷ 75 = - 5

The recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by multiplying the previous term by r , thus

f(n) = - 5f(n - 1) if n > 1

with f(1) = 3 ← first term
