Find the distance between the points (1,8) and (9, 2).

grin007 [14]

Answer:

$distance = \sqrt{(x_{1} -x_{2})^2+(y_{1} -y_{2})^2 }\\\\$

$=\sqrt{(9-1)^2+(2-8)^2 }\\\\=\sqrt{8^2 + 6^2}\\\\=\sqrt{64 +36 }\\\\=\sqrt{100} = 10units$

Cylinder A is mathematically similar to cylinder B. The height of cylinder A is 10cm and its surface area is 440cm2 . The surf

Pie

Answer:

$440 = 2\pi {r}^{2} + 2\pi(r)10 \\$

$3960 = 2\pi {r}^{2} + 2\pi(r)h$

$\frac{3960 = 2\pi {r}^{2} + 2\pi(r)h}{440 = 2\pi {r }^{2} + 2\pi(r)10 }$

$9 = \frac{h}{10}$

h=90

A rectangular carpet is x+5 feet wide and 3x-2 feet long what is the area in square feet of the carpet in terms of x

siniylev [52]

Formula for area:
Area = Wide x Length

Wide: x + 5
Long: 3x - 2

Area = (x + 5) x (3x - 2)
Area = 3x² - 2x + 15x - 10
Area = (3x² + 13x - 10) square feet
