Answer:

Option B 13 units is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used to find distance between 2 points is:

$d(P1,P2)=\sqrt{(x_{2} -x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} -y_{1})^2 }$

x₁ = 12 x₂ = 0 y₁= 9 and y₂=4

Putting values in the formula:

$=\sqrt{(0-12)^2+(4-9)^2}\\=\sqrt{(-12)^2+(-5)^2}\\=\sqrt{144+25} \\=\sqrt{169} \\=13$

So, Option B 13 units is correct.

Answer:

B) 13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Use the equation for solving the distance between points:

√(x2 - x1)²+(y2-y1)²

2) In this case, we would plug them into the equation:

√(12-0)²+(9-4)²

3) Now, we simplify:

√(12)²+(5)²

4) We simplify even further:

√144+25

5) We add the two:

√169

6) Take the square root of √169:

13.

Find an equation of the line that passes through the given point and has the indicated slope:

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

"Undefined" slope means the line on the graph is vertical, and that
tells the whole story right there. The 'x' coordinate is the same for
every point on the line. If (6, -1) is a point on the line, then you know
that the x-value of EVERY point on it is 6 .

It's a vertical line that intersects the x-axis at x=6, and the equation
of the line is x=6 .

9x+1+32x+1=36

Combine like terms

41x+2=36

Subtract 2 from both sides

41x=34

X= 41/34 or 1.2

For what values of (m) does the graph of y=mx²-5x-2 have no x-intercepts?

Natali5045456 [20]

You need to find where the discriminant is less than zero
Remember the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac
a = m
b = -5
c = -2
Set up the inequality like this
(-5)^2 - 4m(-2) < 0
25 + 8m < 0
8m < -25
m < -25/8 < -3.125

So any number less than -3.125 will make this graph have no x-intercepts (or real roots)

The distance between the point (2,1,1) and the plane x-2y=5 is

Eduardwww [97]

The given plane has normal vector

$x-2y=5\implies\mathbf n=\langle1,-2,0\rangle$

Scaling n by a real number t gives a set of vectors that span an entire line through the origin. Translating this line by adding the vector <2, 1, 1> makes it so that this line passes through the point (2, 1, 1). So this line has equation

$\mathbf r(t)=\langle1,-2,0\rangle t+\langle2,1,1\rangle=\langle 2+t, 1-2t, 1\rangle$

This line passes through (2, 1, 1) when t = 0, and the line intersects with the plane when

$x-2y=5\implies(2+t)-2(1-2t)=5\implies5t=5\implies t=1$

which corresponds the point (3, -1, 1) (simply plug t = 1 into the coordinates of $\mathbf r(t)$ ).

So the distance between the plane and the point is the distance between the points (2, 1, 1) and (3, -1, 1):

$\sqrt{(2-3)^2+(1-(-1))^2+(1-1)^2}=\boxed{\sqrt5}$
