Can finding distance between a line be a decimal

Mathematics
1 answer:
nlexa [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

the answer is: Yes, the distance between a line be a decimal.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>" The distance between two straight lines in the plane is the minimum distance between any two points lying on the lines".</em>

<em>Yes, finding the distance between a line can be in decimals.</em>

let r and s be two lines such that P(a,b) and Q(c,d) are points on the line.

then the distance between lines is given by:

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

so, this square root value may come in decimal as well.

Hence, the distance between two lines can be in decimals.

On Tuesday, Karen finished all her chores in 3/4 of an hour. On Wednesday, she finished her chores in 5/12 of an hour. How much
IRISSAK [1]
1 hour = 60 minutes

Tuesday: 60 divided by 4 = 15. Karen did it 3/4 of a hour so we multiply 15 by 4 which is 45. 45 equals 45 minutes. On Tuesday, Karen finished her chores in 45 minutes

Wednesday: first we divide 60 by 12 which is 5. 5 would equal 5 minutes. now we multiply 5 by 5 which is 25. Karen finished her chores in 25 minutes.

Answer: Karen finished her chores 20 minutes faster on Wednesday than Tuesday.

The ______________ probability of an outcome is obtained by dividing the frequency of occurrence of an event by the number of tr
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Empirical probability

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical probability is data collected from experiment and real-life situation.

The "empirical probability" of an outcome is obtained by dividing the frequency of occurrence of an event by the number of trails of the experiment.

\Longrightarrow: \sf{P(E)=\dfrac{\text{number of times event occured}}{\text{number of trails}}

  • <u>Therefore, the correct answer is empirical probability.</u>

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.

write the equation of the line in slope - interact firm given the slop and the coordinates of the y-intercept. m=3/5; (0,1/6)
brilliants [131]
Y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - ¹/₆ = ³/₅(x - 0)
y - ¹/₆ = ³/₅(x) - ³/₅(0)
y - ¹/₆ = ³/₅x - 0
<u>  + ¹/₆         + ¹/₆
</u>       y = <u><em /></u><em />³/₅x + ¹/₆
       y = ³/₅(0) + ¹/₆
       y = 0 + ¹/₆
       y = ¹/₆
