Answer:

  • (5, 4) to origin is √41
  • (4, 5) to origin is √41
  • √(a^2 +b^2) = √(b^2 +a^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(b) The distance of point (a, b) from the origin is ...

  d = √(a^2 +b^2)

The distance of point (b, a) from the origin is ...

  d = √(b^2 +a^2)

The commutative property of addition says these expressions have identical values:

  √(a^2 +b^2) = √(b^2 +a^2)

__

(a) The distance of interest is ...

  d = √(5^2 +4^2) = √(25+16) = √41

It is the same for (4, 5) and (5, 4) as shown above.

__

Note that a^2 = (-a)^2, so that any of the points ...

  (a, b), (b, a), (-a, b), (b, -a), (a, -b), (-b, a), (-a, -b), (-b, -a)

will all have the same distance from the origin.

What two numbers add to 8 and multiply to 28
anygoal [31]
Find numbers that multiply to 28 and add them to see if they add to 8
28=
1 and 28=29 not 8
2 and 14=16 not 8
4 and 7=11 not 8
that's it'
no 2 numbers
we must use quadratic formula

x+y=8
xy=28

x+y=8
subtract x fromb oths ides
y=8-x
subsitute
x(8-x)=28
distribute
8x-x^2=28
add x^2 to both sides
8x=28+x^2
subtract 8x
x^2-8x+28=0

if you have
ax^2+bx+c=0 then x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}
so if we have
1x^2-8+28=0 then
a=1
b=-8
c=28

x=\frac{-(-8)+/- \sqrt{(-8)^{2}-4(1)(28)} }{2(1)}
x=\frac{8+/- \sqrt{-48} }{2}
x=\frac{8+/- 4 \sqrt{-3} }{2}
x=4+/- 2 \sqrt{-3}
x=4+/- 2i \sqrt{3}
there are no real numbers that satisfy this

In Ryan coorporation the first shift produced 5 1/2 times as many lightbulbs as the second shift. if the total lightul.bs produc
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

  • first shift: 13,750 bulbs
  • second shift: 2500 bulbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The production ratio is ...

  shift 1 : shift 2 = 5.5 : 1 = 11 : 2

so, the production on shift 1 as a ratio to the total is ...

  shift 1 : total = 11 : (11+2) = 11 : 13

The first shift produced ...

  (11/13)(16,250 bulbs) = 13,750 bulbs . . . . first shift

and the second shift produced ...

  (2/13)(16,250 bulbs) = 2,500 bulbs . . . . second shift

_____

Of course, once you have one of the numbers, you can also find the other by using the 5.5 factor or by subtracting from total production.
