Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A(-6, 2), B(6,-3) and C(-6, -3)

AB² = (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

= ( 6 -[-6])² + ( -3 -2)²

= ( 6 + 6)² + ( -3 -2)² = 12² + (-5)² = 144 + 25 =169

AB = √169 = 13 units

BC² = ( -6 -6)² + ( -3 - [-3])² = (-6-6)² + (-3 +3)²

= (-12)² + 0 = 144

BC = √144 = 12 unis

CA² = (-6 - [-6])² +(-3-2)² = (-6 + 6)² + ( -3-2)²

= 0 + (-5)² = 25

CA =√25 = 5 units

length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle = 13units

Four resistors are connected in series such that their total resistance is 50ohm . If the resistance of resistors is 5 ohm , 10o

Katyanochek1 [597]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$\boxed{R_{4}=20\Omega}$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

If resistors are in series, so the current $I$ is the same in all of them. In this problem we have four resistors. So, we can get a relationship between the Equivalent resistance of series combination and the four resistors as follows:

$R_{eq}=R_{1}+R_{2}+R_{3}+R_{4}$

$R_{eq}$ is the total resistance $50\Omega$ . Moreover:

$R_{1}=5\Omega \\ R_{2}=10\Omega \\ R_{3}=15\Omega$

Therefore:

$50=5+10+15+R_{4} \\ \\ R_{4}=50-(5+10+15) \\ \\ R_{4}=50-30 \\ \\ \boxed{R_{4}=20\Omega}$

Which real-world story is represented by the addition problem (–2) + (–3) = –5?

tangare [24]

The answer is A.

If the submarine descended then it went below, and if it ascended it went above. Therefore:

"Descended 2 miles"= -2

"Then descended another 3 miles"= -3

(-2)+(-3)=-5

Adding two negatives together will give you a bigger negative so the submarine would then be 5 miles below its original location.
