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

The picture can be divided into 2 same triangles and one rectangular.

The triangle areas is {1/2 *base * height}*2 (because 2 same triangles)

and you need to sum rectangular area (width * base).
The result will be area of 2 triangle +area of rectangular.
=2(1/2*base of triangle* height)+ (base of rectangular * height)
= (base of triangle* height)+(base of rectangular * height)
=(base of triangle +base of rectangular)*height

b1 is top length
b2 is bottom length, and so

Base of triangle =(b1-b2/2)
Base of rectangular =b2
Height =h
Thus A ={(b1-b2/2)+b2 }*h
A= [(b1+b2)/2]*h

Identify the y-coordinate for the solution to the system of equations. Solve the system using substitution.
eimsori [14]

Answer:

x = 23/5 OR 4.6

y = 157/15 OR 10.46

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 4x + 6x - 33 = 13

> 10x - 33 = 13

> 10x = 13 + 33

> 10x = 46

y = 4 (25/5) + 3y = -13

> 92/5 + 37 = -13

> 3y = -13 - 92/5

> 3y = - 157/5
