Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you graph a proportional relationship, the line goes through the

origin, (0, 0). At that point, the "a" and "b" are both equal to 0.

0/0 is not constant. It's not even defined.

This is true so from the pair (0, 0), you can't determine that constant. This matches up with the fact that 0/0 is indeterminate, and therefore undefined.

Calculate the distance between the points P=(-1, -1) and L=(6, -9) in the coordinate plane.

Over [174]

Answer:

≈ 10.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

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

with (x₁, y₁ ) = P(- 1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = L(6, - 9)

d = $\sqrt{(6-(-1))^2+(-9-(-1))^2}$

= $\sqrt{(6+1)^2+(-9+1)^2}$

= $\sqrt{7^2+(-8)^2}$

= $\sqrt{49+64}$

= $\sqrt{113}$ ≈ 10.63 ( to the nearest hundredth )

Curt and Ian both ran a mile. Curt time was 8/9 of Ian time. Who ran faster?

Leona [35]

Curt because if his time was 8/9 of Ian's time then that means he ran the mile in a fraction of Ian's time, so he finished the mile quicker. Curt ran faster.
