Paul $120 Sue $280

120x3=360 360-80=280

3p-80+p=400

4p-80=400

4p=480

p=120 s=280

What is the distance between 5,4 and -1,1

spayn [35]

Answer:

3 $\sqrt{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

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

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, 1)

d = $\sqrt{(-1-5)^2+(1-4)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(-6)^2+(-3)^2}$

= $\sqrt{36+9}$

= $\sqrt{45}$

= 3 $\sqrt{5}$ ← exact value

≈ 6.71 ( to 2 dec. places )

Solve for x: −3|2x + 6| = −12

spayn [35]

Start with

$-3|2x+6|=-12$

Divide both sides by -3

$|2x+6|=4$

If the absolute value of a number is 4, that number can either be 4 or -4: we have the two solutions

$2x+6=4 \iff 2x=-2 \iff x=-1$

$2x+6=-4 \iff 2x=-10 \iff x=-5$

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words for numbers.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

x=-16

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

x = 8a

which was written to find the value of x.

We have to find the value of x when the value of a is inserted as -2

So, putting the value

x = 8(-2)

x= -16

So the value of x when a = -2 is -16 ..
