Answer:  The required length of the segment AA' is 11 units.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the point A(5, 11) is reflected across the X-axis.

We are to find the length of the segment AA'.

We know that

if a point (x, y) is reflected across X-axis, then its co-ordinates becomes (x, -y).

So, after reflection, the co-ordinates of the point A(5, 11) becomes A'(5, -11).

Now, we have the following distance formula :

The DISTANCE between two points P(a, b) and Q(c, d) gives the length of the segment PQ as follows :

PQ=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}.

Therefore, the length of the segment AA' is given by

AA'=\sqrt{(5-5)^2+(-11-11)^2}=\sqrt{11^2}=11.

Thus, the required length of the segment AA' is 11 units.

1) Solve the following system of equations algebraically. Give your solution as two
Bad White [126]

For this case we have the following system of equations:

y = x ^ 2 + 7x + 12\\y = 2x + 8

Equating both equations we have:

x ^ 2 + 7x + 12 = 2x + 8\\x ^ 2 + 7x-2x + 12-8 = 0\\x ^ 2 + 5x + 4 = 0

We must find the solutions, for this we factor. We look for two numbers that, when multiplied, result in 4 and when added, result in 5. These numbers are 4 and 1:

4 + 1 = 5\\4 * 1 = 4

Then, the factorized equation is of the form:

(x + 4) (x + 1) = 0

Thus, the solutions are:

x_ {1} = - 4\\x_ {2} = - 1

We look for solutions for the variable "y":

y_ {1} = 2 (-4) + 8 = -8 + 8 = 0\\y_ {2} = 2 (-1) + 8 = -2 + 8 = 6

Thus, the system solutions are given by:(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 4,0)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 1,6)

ANswer:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 4,0)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 1,6)

Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the slope. Since the line is horizontal, it's slope has to be 0 (this is because slope = rise/run, there is no "rise" in a horizontal line therefore the slope is 0)

Now, we need to find the y-intercept. This is where the line intercepts the y-axis. Looking at the graph, the line intercepts the axis at (0,-4), therefore the y-intercept is -4.

The equation would be:

y=0x-4

y=-4
