Answer:

<h2>8 units</h2>

solution,

Let the points be A and B

A(-3,4)---->(X1,y1)

B(5,4)----->(x2,y2)

now,

Distance:

$\sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2} + {(y2 - y1)}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {(5 - ( - 3))}^{2} + (4 - 4) ^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {(5 + 3)}^{2} + {(0)}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {(8)}^{2} + 0} \\ = \sqrt{64} \\ = \sqrt{ {(8)}^{2} } \\ = 8 \: units$

Hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment..

Answer:

$Apple\ muffin\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ Bran\ muffin\\10\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 4\\15\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 6\\20\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 8\\35\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 14$

Step-by-step explanation:

$For\ 5\ apple\ muffins, bran\ muffin=2\\\\Ratio\ of\ bran\ muffin\ to\ apple\ muffin=\frac{number\ of\ bran\ muffin}{number\ of\ apple\ muffin}\\\\Ratio\ of\ bran\ muffin\ to\ apple\ muffin=\frac{2}{5}\\\\Bran\ muffin=\frac{2}{5}\times apple\ muffin\\\\When\ apple\ muffin=10\\\\Bran\ muffin=\frac{2}{5}\times 10=4\\\\When\ apple\ muffin=15\\\\Bran\ muffin=\frac{2}{5}\times 15=6\\\\When\ apple\ muffin=20\\\\Bran\ muffin=\frac{2}{5}\times 20=8$
