What is the perimeter of a polygon with verticals at (-1, 3) , (-1, 6) , (2, 10) , (5, 6) , and (5, 3)
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

22 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a polygon is said to be the sum of the length of it's sides.

From the question, we have 5 vertices. This means the polygon is a pentagon. It's given vertices are

A = (−1, 3)

B = (−1, 6) ​

C = (2, 10)

D = (5, 6) ​​

E = (5, 3) ​

To find the distance between two points, we use the formula

d = √[(y2 - y1)² + (x2 - x1)²]

Between A and B, we have

d(ab) = √[(6 - 3)² + (-1 --1)²]

d(ab) = √(3²) + 0

d(ab) = √9 = 3

Between B and C, we have

d(bc) = √[(10 - 6)² + (2 --1)²]

d(bc) = √[4² + 3²]

d(bc) = √(16 + 9) = √25 = 5

Between C and D, we have

d(cd) = √[(6 - 10)² + (5 - 2)²]

d(cd) = √[(-4)² + 3²]

d(cd) = √(16 + 9) = √25 = 5

Between D and E, we have

d(de) = √[(3 - 6)² + (5 - 5)²]

d(de) = √(-3)² + 0

d(de) = √9 = 3

Between E and A, we have

d(ea) = √[(3 - 3)² + (5 --1)²]

d(ea) = √[0 + (6)²]

d(ea) = √36 = 6

The perimeter is given as

d(ab) + d(bc) + d(cd) + d(de) + d(ea) =

3 + 5 + 5 + 3 + 6 = 22 units

A storm Flori performance most of the daily unit counts but the owner personally recorded that there was 61 units remaining afte
Kruka [31]

Answer:

  y = -2.8x +69.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2-point form of the equation of a line can be used to find the equation of the line through points (3, 61) and (13, 33). The general form of it is ...

   y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)·(x -x1) +y1

For the given points, this is ...

  y = (33 -61)/(13 -3)·(x -3) +61

  y = -28/10(x -3) +61

  y = -2.8x +69.4 . . . . . the equation of the line through the given points

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

A "line of best fit" is one that minimizes some measure of deviation from the line. Usually, what is minimized is the square of the deviations. Choosing two points to draw the line through may be convenient, but does not necessarily result in a line of best fit.

Can someone help me with this problem 3(x+1)=11 I need it step by step
Nataly [62]

Answer:

x = 2.66666667

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 1) = 11

We multiply both x and 1 by 3 and get

3x + 3 = 11

Now we subtract 3 from both sides

3x + 3 - 3 = 11 - 3

3x = 8

Now divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 8/3

x = 2.66666667
