Answer:

The distance between the two given points is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move from (8,13) to (11,9), the change in x is 3 and that in y is -4.

Note that these distances are at right angles to one another. We apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the diagonal connecting the two points, whose length is the desired distance:

d = √(3² + [-4]²) = √25, or just 5.

The distance between the two given points is 5.

Pani-rosa [81]

Given :

Challenge given is to volunteer for about 1 1/2 hours per week .

Autum did at a rate of 6 3/4 hours per week .

To Find :

The comparison ( ratio ) her volunteers rate with the challenge rate .

Solution :

Simplifying challenge rate in in normal fraction , $1\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{2+1}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}$ .

Also , simplifying her rate , $6\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{(6\times 4)+3}{4}=\dfrac{27}{4}$ .

Now , ratio of his work by challenge is :

$R=\dfrac{\dfrac{27}{4}}{\dfrac{3}{2}}\\\\\\R=\dfrac{27\times 2}{4\times 3}\\\\R=\dfrac{9}{2}$

Therefore , the ratio is 9/2 or 4 1/2 .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Solve for g.<br> −3+5+6g=11−3g

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

g = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 + 5 + 6g = 11 - 3g

2 + 6g = 11 - 3g

Add 3g to both sides.

2 + 9g = 11

Subtract 2 from both sides

9g = 9

g = 1

You have the numbers 1–24 written on slips of paper.If you choose one slip at random, what is the probability that you will not

ollegr [7]

The numbers that are divisible by 3 are:

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
that is 8 numbers divisible by 3

24-8=16 numbers NOT divisible by 3

so the probability of not picking a number divisible by 3 is 16/24

hope this helps and is right :)
