The distance between two points is calculated through the equation,
                                 d = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²
Substituting the known values from the given above,
                                d = √(4 - -4)² + (4 - -4)²
                                  d = 8√2 = 11.31
The distance between the points is approximately equal to 11.31. The value that Jason presented is not the real distance because it does not account for the other set of coordinates.

The way to find the area of a triangle is A=\frac{B*H}{2}
if the base is 3 feet longer then the height we can write it like this B=H+3

now we can add it to our area equation
20=\frac{H(H+3)}{2}
20=\frac{ h^{2} +3h}{2}
40=H^{2}+3H
10\frac{1}{3}=H^{2}
h=3.2ft

Custom Greetings places an order for 300 reams of card stock paper. Its supplier offers Custom Greetings a 35% trade discount. I
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

<em>Net price: $4972.50</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

We know a ream of paper has a list price of $25.50. Custom Greetings placed an order for 300 of them. If they have purchased them at list price, the total price would have been

300*25.50=$7,650

But we also know there was a 35% trade discount, so the net price of their order is

$7,650-$7,650*35/100=$4972.50

Triangle J is shown below. James drew a scaled version of Triangle J using a scale factor of 4 and labeled it
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

The area of triangle K is 16 times greater than the area of triangle J

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If Triangle K is a scaled version of Triangle J

then

Triangle K and Triangle J are similar

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z -----> the scale factor

Ak ------> the area of triangle K

Aj -----> the area of triangle J

so

z^{2}=\frac{Ak}{Aj}

we have

z=4

substitute

4^{2}=\frac{Ak}{Aj}

16=\frac{Ak}{Aj}

Ak=16Aj

therefore

The area of triangle K is 16 times greater than the area of triangle J

Solve in(5x+7)=8 round to the nearest thousandth
Ivan

Answer:

x=\frac{1}{5}

x=0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x+7)=8

5x+7=8

Subtract 7 from both sides.

5x+7-7=8-7

Simplify.

5x=1

Divide both sides by 5.

\frac{5x}{5} =\frac{1}{5}

Simplify.

x=\frac{1}{5}

Decimal form:

0.2
