1. Find the distance from point P to QS
12345 [234]

Answer:

5.7 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from point P to QS is the distance from point P (1, 1) to the point of interception R(-3, 5).

Use distance formula to calculate distance between P and R:

PR = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Let,

P (1, 1) = (x_1, y_1)

R(-3, 5) = (x_2, y_2)

Plug in the values into the formula.

PR = \sqrt{(-3 - 1)^2 + (5 - 1)^2}

PR = \sqrt{(-4)^2 + (4)^2}

PR = \sqrt{16 + 16}

PR = \sqrt{32}

PR = 5.7 units (to nearest tenth)

Y=4x+3 table of ordered pairs
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

X:1 2 3 4 5 Y:7 11 15 19 23.

Step-by-step explanation:

We just need to put in the values of x into the equation: y = 4x + 3.

<u>x = 1: </u>

y = 4(1) + 3

  = 4 + 3

y = 7

<u>x = 2: </u>

y = 4(2) + 3

  = 8 + 3

y = 11

<u>x = 3:</u>

y = 4(3) + 3

  = 12 + 3

y = 15

<u>x = 4:</u>

y = 4(4) + 3

  = 16 + 3

y = 19

<u>x = 5:</u>

y = 4(5) + 3

  = 20 + 3

y = 23
