Answer:

x = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 2.5x - 10 = 40$

Collect like terms and simplify

$- 2.5x = 40 + 10 \\ - 2.5x = 50$

Divide both sides of the equation by -2.5

$\frac{ - 2.5x}{ - 2.5} = \frac{50}{ - 2.5}$

Simplify

$x = - 20$

Explain the distance formula. Then use it to calculate the distance between A(1,1) and B (7,-7)

crimeas [40]

The distance formula is given by:

$d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2} }$

We are given two points A and B as

A(1,1) and

B(7,-7)

so we have ,

x1 = 1 , y1=1

x2= 7 and y2=-7

Plugging these in the formula we have:

$d=\sqrt{(7-1)^{2}+(-7-1)^{2} }$

d=√(36+64)

d=√100

d=10

Answer: The distance between A(1,1) and B(7,-7) is 10
