Debt is negative, growth is positive, and elevation is a zero
EXAMPLE
Find the distance between the points A(−4, −3) and B(5, 7).
SOLUTION
In this case, x1 = −4, x2 = 5, y1 = −3 and y2 = 7.
AB2 = (x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2
= (5 − (−4))2 + (7 − (−3))2
= 92 + 102
= 181
Thus, AB =
Note that we could have chosen x1 = 5, x2 = −4, y1 = 7 and y2 = −3 and still obtained the same result. As long as (x1, y1) refers to one point and (x2, y2) the other point, it does not matter which one is which.
Answer:
$426
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
He bought a video game system for $299
2 games at $49 apiece= 2*49= $98
total cost = 299+98=$397
tax= 7.33%
=7.33/100*397
=0.0733*397
=29.1001
total cost = 29.1001+397
=$426
The sale price would be $150
Since both equations equal Y, set them equal to each other and solve.
3x -1 = -2x +9
Add 2x to each side:
5x - 1 = 9
Add 1 to each side:
5x = 10
Divide both sides by 5:
x = 10/5
x = 2
Now replace x with 2 and solve for y:
y = 3(2) -1 = 6-1 = 5
x = 2, y = 5 (2,5)
