6 0

Solve for m:
2 m - 5 - 3 = 10 - m

Subtract like terms. -3 - 5 = -8:
2 m - 8 = 10 - m

Add m to both sides:
2 m + m - 8 = (m - m) + 10

m - m = 0:
2 m + m - 8 = 10

2 m + m = 3 m:
3 m - 8 = 10

Add 8 to both sides:
3 m + (8 - 8) = 8 + 10

8 - 8 = 0:
3 m = 10 + 8

10 + 8 = 18:
3 m = 18

Divide both sides of 3 m = 18 by 3:
(3 m)/3 = 18/3

3/3 = 1:
m = 18/3

The gcd of 18 and 3 is 3, so 18/3 = (3×6)/(3×1) = 3/3×6 = 6:
Answer: m = 6

Find the distance between (-2, 8) and (11, 2). Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answer: 14.32 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculate the distance between two points is:

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

In this case, given the points (-2,8) and (11,2), we can identify that:

$x_2=11\\x_1=-2\\\\y_2=2\\y_1=8$

Therefore, we just need to substitute values into the formula in order to calculate the distance between the given points. This is (Rounded to the nearest hundred):

$d=\sqrt{(11-(-2))^2+(2-8)^2}\\\\d=14.32\ units$
