Answer:

The answer to your question is: 6.7 units or 15/√5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

slope = 2  Point (3, 8)

Another point (8, 3)

Formula

(y - y1) = m (x - x1)

d = |Ax + By + C| / √(A² + B²)

Process

Find the equation of the line

                                              (y - 8) = 2(x - 3)

                                              y - 8 = 2x - 6

                                               2x - y + 2 = 0

Find the distance between the line andt the point

d = |2(8) - 1(3) + 2| / √2² + (-1)²

d = | 16 - 3 + 2| / √ 4 + 1

d = | 15 | / √5

d = 15 / √5

d = 6.7 units

Wilma works at a bird sanctuary and stores birdseed in plastic containers. She has 2 small containers that hold 8 pounds of bird
Amanda [17]

Answer:

 60 lbs left over

Step-by-step explanation:  Since the small containers hold 8 lbs each you multiply 8 by 2 since there are 2 containers. Same for the large, multiply 9 by 12 because each container holds 12 lbs and there is 9 containers. Then, you subtract 4 from that total because she already used 4 lbs.

x=(2*8)+(9*12)-4 Multiply

x=16+108-4 Simplify

x=120

So, before she fills the bird feeders she has 120 lbs of bird seed. There are 30 bird feeders and since they hold 2 lbs each you multiply 30 and 2. Then you subtract that from the 120 lbs because she is filling the bird feeders with that seed.

120- (30*2)

120-60= 60 lbs left over

Rafael is taking a test that contains a section of 12 true-false questions. How many of the possible groups of answers to these
Klio2033 [76]
Answer: There are 495 possible different sets of answers the could contain exactly 8 correct answers of false.

Basically, we are looking for the number of different ways of selecting 8 objects out of a set of 12 objects. Our objects are answers of false and the set is the test.

This is a combination problem. The formula would be:

12! / (8! x 4!) = 495

Leticia Cox is a biochemist. She is testing two different types of drugs that induce cell growth. She has selected two cultures
Anna71 [15]

1. Culture A.

Since the number of cells increases by 200 each day and every day thereafter, then after seven days the number of cells will increase by

200\cdot 7=1,400.

2. Culture B.

The initial number of cells was 1,000. Since the number of cells increases 8% each day and every day thereafter, then after seven days the number of cells will be

1,000\cdot (1.08)^7\approx 1,713.

The number of cells that have grown by the end of the seventh day is

1,713-1,000=713.

Answer: option A -- Culture A: 1400 cells Culture B: 713 cells
