If we can find 1 contradiction then answer is no
hmm
less than one in a fraction is when in form a/b, b>a
1/1000 times 1 and 1/2 same as 1/1000 times 3/2=3/2000
that is less than 1
answer is NO
(-4,-2)
You just plug in the numbers from the ordered pair, into your equation. Remember, the formula for ordered pairs are (x,y). :)
The total distance that the family has driven is the sum of the distances from Phoenix to San Francisco,
d = sqrt ((5 - -16)² + (-36 - -12)²) = 10.63
from San Francisco to Blythe,
d = sqrt ((-9 - 5)² + (-20 - -36)²) = 21.26
from Blythe to Los Angeles,
d = sqrt ((-4 - -9)² + (-33 - - 20)²) = 5.83
Adding the distances, we get 37.72.
