The formula of a distance between two points:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

We have:

(2,\ k)\to x_1=2,\ y_1=k\\(0,\ -6)\to x_2=0,\ y_2=-6\\d=5-\sqrt5

Substitute:

\sqrt{(0-2)^2+(-6-k)^2}=5-\sqrt5\\\\\sqrt{(-2)^2+[-(6+k)]^2}=5-\sqrt5\\\\\sqrt{4+(6+k)^2}=5-\sqrt5\ \ \ \ \ |^2\\\\4+(6+k)^2=(5-\sqrt5)^2\ \ \ \ |use\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2

4+(6+k)^2=5^2-2\cdot5\cdot\sqrt5+(\sqrt5)^2\\\\4+(6+k)^2=25-10\sqrt5+5\ \ \ \ |-4\\\\(6+k)^2=26-10\sqrt5\to6+k=\pm\sqrt{26-10\sqrt5}\ \ \ \ |-6\\\\\boxed{k=-6-\sqrt{26-10\sqrt5}\ \vee\ k=-6+\sqrt{26-10\sqrt5}}

If d=\sqrt5, then:

\sqrt{4+(6+k)^2}=\sqrt5\ \ \ \ |^2\\\\(\sqrt{4+(6+k)^2})^2=(\sqrt5)^2\\\\4+(6+k)^2=5\ \ \ \ |-4\\\\(6+k)^2=1\to 6+k=\pm\sqrt1\\\\6+k=\pm1\ \ \ \ |-6\\\\\boxed{k=-7\ \vee\ k=-5}

Find 3 consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the smallest number and the middle number is 27 less than 3 times the large
Mandarinka [93]

Let consecutive odd numbers be  

x , x+2 , x+4

Smallest number =x

Middle number =x+2

Largest number =x+4

According to condition (x) +(x+2) -27 = 3(x+4)

                                      x+x+2-27= 3(x+4)

                                      2x-25= 3x+12

Subtracting 2x and 12 both sides

                                   2x-25-2x-12=3x+12-2x-12

                                     -37= x   this is smallest odd number.

Other two odd numbers are (x+2)= (-37+2)=(-35)

                             &                (x+4)=(-37+4)=(-33)

so three consecutive odd numbers are -37 ,-35 , -33

In physics class, Carrie learns that a force, G, is equal to the mass of an object, m, times its acceleration, a. She writes the
wlad13 [49]

Your problem statement is missing the formula Carrie came up with. It should be The one she started with, divided by m.

... G/m = a

For the values given, the acceleration is

... (7.92 N)/(3.6 kg) = 2.2 m/s²

_____

The unit of newtons is abbreviated N.

1 N = 1 kg·m/s² so dividing by kilograms leaves units of m/s², which are the units of acceleration.

Very likely, your question is not concerned with the units, just the number: 2.2. It's a straight division problem, easily handled by hand, by calculator, or in your head (after you realize 7.92 = 7.2×1.1 = 2×3.6×1.1).
