Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

(6, -3) is 6 units towards the right of the y-axis

So, the shortest distance of (6, -3) from the y-axis is 6 units

Point A is at (6,-6) and point C is at(-6,-2). find the coordinates of B on AC so that AB= 3/4AC.

loris [4]

Answer:

B(-6, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find B such that ...

(B -A) = (3/4)(C -A) . . . . the required distance relation

4(B -A) = 3(C -A) . . . . . . multiply by 4

4B = 3C +A . . . . . . . . . . add 4A, simplify

Now, we can solve for B and substitute the given coordinates:

B = (3C +A)/4 = (3(-6, -2) +(-6, 6))/4 = (-24, 0)/4 = (-6, 0)

The coordinates of point B are (-6, 0).

consider the point (x,y) lying on the graph of y=(x+3)^1/2. let L be the distance between the points (x,y) and (4,0). write l as

olga_2 [115]

$L=\sqrt{ (x-4)^2 + y^2 }$
and
$y=\sqrt{x+3} \Rightarrow x = y^2-3$

$L=\sqrt{ (x-4)^2 + y^2 }=\sqrt{ (y^2 - 3-4)^2 + y^2 }=\sqrt{ (y^2-7)^2 + y^2 }$

The actual length of a machine is 12.25cm , the measured length 12.2cm find the Absolute error .

NeX [460]

Answer:

Absolute error is 0.05 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Actual length = 12.25 cm

Measured length = 12.2 cm

We need to find Absolute error.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

Absolute error is equal to measured length minus Actual actual.

framing in equation form we get;

Absolute error = $|Measured\ length - Actual\ length|= |12.2-12.25| = |-0.05|$

Hence Absolute error is 0.05 cm.
