Find the length of AB

aniked [119]

FIRST QUESTION
Given points are:
A(2, -4) and B(6, 2)
Now, Use the distance formula.
distance formula = $\sqrt{ (x_{2}- x_{1})^{2} + ( y_{2} - y_{1} )^{2} }$

Now, plug the values into the formula, So,
distance = $\sqrt{ (6- 2)^{2} + ( 2 - (-4))^{2} }$

= $\sqrt{ (6- 2)^{2} + ( 2 +4))^{2} }$

= $\sqrt{ (4)^{2} + ( 6))^{2} }$

= $\sqrt{ 16+36}$

= $\sqrt{52}$

= $2 \sqrt{13}$

So, the length of AB is $2 \sqrt{13}$ .

THIRD QUESTION
Two points given are:
A(3, -2) and B(1, 1)
Also given that B is the midpoint of AC.

Let, the co-ordinates of C be C(a, b).
Now, using midpoint formula,
Midpoint = $(\frac{ x_{1}+ x_{2} }{2} , \frac{ y_{1}+ y_{2} }{2} )$

$(1, 1)=(\frac{ 3+ a }{2} , \frac{ -2+b }{2} )$

Now, equaling the ordered pair, we have,

$1=\frac{ 3+ a }{2}$ .............equation (1)

$1=\frac{ -2+b }{2}$ ................equation (2)

Now, taking equation (1)
$1=\frac{ 3+ a }{2}$

$1*2=3+a$

$2-3=a$

$a=-1$

Now, taking equation (2)
$1=\frac{ -2+b }{2}$

$1*2=-2+b$

$2+2=b$

$b=4$

So, the co ordinates of C are (a, b) which is (-1 , 4)


SECOND QUESTION:
Given equations are:
2x + 3y = 14.....................equation (1)
-4x + 2y = 4 .....................equation (2)
Taking equation (2)
-4x + 2y = 4
2y = 4 + 4x
y = (4 + 4x) / 2
y = 2 + 2x .......................equation (3)
Now, Taking equation (1)
2x + 3y = 14
Substituting the value of y from equation (3), we get,
2x + 3(2 + 2x) = 14
2x + 6 + 6x = 14
8x = 14 - 6
x = (14 - 6) / 8
x = 1

Taking equation (3)
y = 2 + 2x
Now, substituting the value of x in equation (3), we get,
y= 2 + 2 (1)
y = 2 + 2
y = 4

So, x=1 and y=4

Drag each tile to the correct box. not all tiles will be used.

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

$y=\frac{13}{6}x$ $y= \frac{11}{5}x$ $y = \frac{21}{9}x$ $y = \frac{19}{8}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached graph

Required

Equations with higher unit rate

First, calculate the unit rate of the graph

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Where:

$(x_1.y_1) = (0,0)$

$(x_2.y_2) = (7,15)$

So:

$m = \frac{15 - 0}{7 - 0}$

$m = \frac{15}{7}$

$m = 2.143$

For the given options.

The unit rate is the coefficient of x

So: $y = \frac{19}{8}x$

Going by the above definition of unit rate.

$m = \frac{19}{8}$

$m = 2.375$

$y = \frac{27}{13}x$

$m = \frac{27}{13}$

$m = 2.077$

$y = \frac{21}{9}x$

$m = \frac{21}{9}$

$m = 2.333$

$y= \frac{11}{5}x$

$m= \frac{11}{5}$

$m= 2.20$

$y = \frac{15}{7}x$

$m = \frac{15}{7}$

$m = 2.143$

$y = \frac{31}{15}x$

$m = \frac{31}{15}$

$y = 2.067$

$y=\frac{13}{6}x$

$m=\frac{13}{6}$

$m=2.167$

The unit rates grater than the graph's from small to large are:

$y=\frac{13}{6}x$ $y= \frac{11}{5}x$ $y = \frac{21}{9}x$ $y = \frac{19}{8}x$

$m=\frac{13}{6}$ $m= \frac{11}{5}$ $m = \frac{21}{9}$ $m = \frac{19}{8}$

Mark wrote the highest score he made on his new video game as the product of 70 X 6000. Use the Associative and Commutative Prop

sesenic [268]

I think in commutative properties of multiplication:
70 x 6000 = 70 x 6000
420,000 = 420,000

I don't know associative properties, only commutative properties. Sorry :(
