Answer:

The answer to your question is 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-3, -1)

B (-3 , 5)

length of a side = 8 units

Process

1.- Calculate the distance between A and B

dAB = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}

x1 = -3     y1 = -1

x2 = -3    y2 = 5

-Substitution

dAB = \sqrt{(-3 + 3)^{2}+ (5 + 1)^{2}}

dAB = \sqrt{0^{2} + 6^{2}}

dAB = \sqrt{36}

dAB = 6 u

2.- Calculate the diagonal using the Pythagorean theorem.

    c² = a² + b²

    c² = 6² + 8²

    c² = 36 + 64

    c² = 100

    c = 10 units

- Conclusion

The diagonal of the rectangle measures 10 units

Kelly has 4 times as many songs on her music player as Lou. Tiffany has 6 times as many songs on her
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

113

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to know how much Lou has first !

so we have to do 682 / 6 which = 113

then 113 / 4 = 28.2

28.2 is how much Lou has

so we will go back and multiply the 4

28.2 x 4 =113

What is the answer to 2x - 6 = 8 - x
fenix001 [56]
Move the x's to the same side

2x + x = 8 +6

then simplify

3x = 14

make x stand on its own

(3x)/3 = 14/3

the 3's on the x side cancel

x = 14/3
