Answer: √72 or 8.49 units when rounded to the nearest hundredth.


Explanation: Because we have the endpoints if a segment and want to find the length of the entire segment, we need the distance formula.

Its general equation is √(x2-x1)+(y2-y1)

Substituting gives us √(-1-5)^2+(-9-(-3)^2


Simplifying gives us √36+36 which is √72

Also this is just a simple thing that some people forget: When you have parentheses, the exponent is distributed to everything inside including the negative. This is why we did not have a negative answer like -36 after simplifying.

What is the value of x in the equation? Two-thirds (x + 6) = negative 18 –36 –33 –24 Negative 18
koban [17]

Answer:

-33

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 (x + 6) = - 18

Multiply by 3/2 on each side

3/2 *2/3 (x + 6) = - 18*3/2

x+6 = -27

Subtract 6 from each side

x+6-6 = -27-6

x = -33

Answer:

m = -6/7

b = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-2 - 4)/(0 - (-7)) = -6/7

y = mx + b

m = -6/7

y = -6/7 x + b

Use point (-7, 4).

4 = (-6/7)(-7) + b

4 = 6 + b

b = -2

y = -6/7 x - 2

m = -6/7

b = -2
