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.

1. Jada measured the height of a plant in a science experiment and finds that, to the nearest 1/8 of an inch, it
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

here

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the height(h) of the plant to the nearest 1/4 of an inch is 3/4 inches = 0.75 inches.

it is obvious that the height will lie within the range

Thus,

a. The largest actual height could be 0.875 inches, while

b. The smallest actual height could be 0.625 inches

c. The percentage error is given by the formula

if we take the lowest value, for instance, as the exact, i.e. 0.625 inches, then % error = [(0.75-0.625)/0.75]*100% = 16.7%

What is the recursive formula for 3,7,11,15,...
scoundrel [369]

Arithmetic sequence: a_n=a_1+(n-1)d where: d = common difference between terms; n = term; a_1 = first term of sequence a_n = 3+(n-1)4 = 3+(4n-4) = 4n-1 Therefore, a_50 = 4(50)-1 = 200 - 1 = 199

2. Consider the following graph of a quadratic function.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Domain is all real numbers.

Range is -3 to infinity that is y >= -3 (that is y -3)

Increasing from x > -4 ( that is from -4 to +infinity) that is to right of -4

Decreasing from x <-4 (that is -infinity to -4) that is to left of -4

This has a minima at x= -4 with y= -3. We can write as (-4, -3)

Maxima is not there as it is going to infinity

Step-by-step explanation:
