Hey there! I'm happy to help!
To find the distance between two points, you square the difference of the x-values and square the difference of the y-values, add them, and then you square root it!
First, we'll add our two x-values.
-6-0= -6
We square it, which means to multiply it by itself.
-6(-6)=36 (If you multiply an even number of negative numbers, your answer is positive. Since we have two negative numbers, we get positive 36)
Now, we do the same with the y-values.
-2-(-1)=-1 (two negatives make it a plus, as in minus minus 1 is plus one.)
We square it.
-1(-1)=1
Now, we add these x and y value differences.
36+1=37
Now, we find the square root using a calculator.
√37≈6.08
Have a wonderful day!
The answer is undefined
The slope of a line can be positive, negative, zero, or undefined. A horizontal line has slope zero since it does not rise vertically (i.e. y1 − y2 = 0), while a vertical line has undefined slope since it does not run horizontally (i.e. x1 − x2 = 0).
Answer:
y = -5x Y8
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Your function is
y = 9 − 5x = -5x+ 9
slope = -5
The parallel line
The line must have slope = -5 and include (0, 8), so
8 = -5×(0) + b
8 = 0 + b
b = 8
The equation for the parallel line is
y = -5x + 8
In the diagram below, the red line is the graph of y = 9 -5x.
The parallel blue line is the graph of y = -5x + 8.
