Answer:

11.1 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve for this using the formula when using coordinates (x1 , y1) and (x2, y2)

= √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

A(5,2), B(5,4), and C(1,1).

For AB = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= A(5,2), B(5,4)

= √(5 - 5)² +(4 - 2)²

= √ 0² + 2²

= √4

= 2 units

For BC = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

= B(5,4), C(1,1)

= √(1 - 5)² +(1 - 4)²

= √ -4² + -3²

= √16 + 9

= √25

= 5 units

For AC = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

A(5,2), C(1,1)

= √(1 - 5)² + (1 - 2)²

= √-4² + -1²

= √16 + 1

= √17

= 4.1231056256 units

The Formula for the Perimeter of Triangle = Side AB + Side BC + Side AC

= 2 units + 5 units + 4.1231056256 units

= 11.1231056256 units.

Approximately the Perimeter of a Triangle to the nearest tenth = 11.1units

Answer:

errr polynomials ahaha

so basically we can multiply the power outside of the parantheses with the exponents on the inside:

$-3x^{2*4} y^{1*4}$

this will give us:

-3x^8y^4

we also unfortunately, have to use the power on the coefficient -3 as well and we cant just MULTIPLY -3 by 4, we are going to have to multiply -3 with -3 4 TIMES(anytime we see a coefficient we MUST multiply the coefficient by itself according to the number outside of the parantheses)

so:

-3*-3*-3*-3=81

final expression

$81x^{8}y^{4}$

If a towns population currently at 50,000 experiences 5% growth every 10 years, what will its population be in 25 years

disa [49]

Answer:

56503

Step-by-step explanation:

this grows exponentialy so at the start it would be 50,000 growing by 5% every ten years. but since there is only 2 ten years in 25 years we must cut the percent in half making 2.5%

Step 1

(50,000×5%)+50,000= 52500

Step 2

(52500×5%)+52500= 55125

step 3

(55125×2.5%) +55125= 56503
