How do I find the distance between (-2,5) and (22,12)

Answer:

The distance between the two points is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the distance between two points in the coordinate plane, you must first make a right triangle and use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the missing side, which is the distance between the points.  Sometimes, it is best to graph the points to get a visual of the triangle, however, you can also find the lengths of the legs ('a' and 'b') by finding the distance between your x and y values.  In this case, there are 24 points between the x-values and 7 points between the y-values.  These represent our legs in the Pythagorean Theorem:  a² + b² = c².  Filling in the values for 'a' and 'b' gives us: 24² + 7² = c² or 576 + 49 = 625.  In order to find c, we need to take the √625, which is 25.  So, the distance between the points given is 25.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{22}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{12})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{[22-(-2)]^2+[12-5]^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(22+2)^2+(12-5)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{24^2+7^2}\implies d=\sqrt{625}\implies d=25

How many rulers of 12-inches are needed to measure a door awnser
Fudgin [204]
<span>the dimensions of a door are variable, for effects of this problem we will assume a door height of 210 cm and a door width of 80 cm

Step 1
</span><span>convert the dimensions of the door in cm to inches
</span>we know that
1 in-------------> 2.54 cm
X----------------> 210 cm
X=210/2.54=82.67 in (height)

1 in-------------> 2.54 cm
X----------------> 80 cm
X=80/2.54=31.50 in (width)

the dimensions of a door are 31.50 in x 82.67 in

Step 2
calculate the amount of rules of 12-inches necessary to measure the height of the door
82.67 in (height)
if one rule-------------> measure 12 in
X----------------------> 82.67 in
X=82.67/12=6.8-----------> 7 rules

Step 3
calculate the amount of rules of 12-inches necessary to measure the width of the door
31.50 in (width)
if one rule-------------> measure 12 in
X----------------------> 31.50 in
X=31.50/12=6.8-----------> 2.62 ------------> 3 rules

the answer is 
to measure a door are needed about 7 rules of 12-inches for the height and about 3 rules of 12-inches for the width

I seriously need someone help on this please I'm not really good in math please please please please please please help me
Mademuasel [1]
A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

A=future amount
P=present amount
r=rate in decimal
t=time in years
n=how many tmes per year it is compounded

they want 110,000=A
present amount=?
rate is 6% or 0.06
time is 12 years
semianually means 2 times per year, so n=2

110,000=P(1+ \frac{0.06}{2})^{(2)(12)}
110,000=P(1+ 0.03)^{24}
110,000=P(1.03)^{24}
divide both sides by (1.03)^24 using your graphinc calculator
