Answer:

$\large\boxed{\sqrt{137}\approx11.7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a distance between two points:

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

We have two points (1, -5) and (-3, 6). substitute:

$d=\sqrt{(-3-1)^2+(6-(-5))^2}=\sqrt{(-4)^2+11^2}=\sqrt{16+121}=\sqrt{137}$

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The answer is the option B

$-4,-14$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$ is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$x^{2}+18x+81=25$

$x^{2}+18x+56=0$

$a=1\\b=18\\c=56$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-18(+/-)\sqrt{18^{2}-4(1)(56)}} {2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-18(+/-)\sqrt{100}} {2}$

$x=\frac{-18(+/-)10} {2}$

$x1=\frac{-18+10} {2}=-4$

$x2=\frac{-18-10} {2}=-14$

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Your hair grows 2 to 4 inches in 4 months, 4 to 6 inches in 9 months, and 6 to 8 inches in a year. Though this is how the usual growth cycle works, it also depends on seasonal changes, hair and scalp health, medications, hormonal changes, and diet among other factors.

Use intercepts to graph the line described by each equation. -6y=-4x+24

Aloiza [94]

First, you have to get the equation to the normal form of a line. To do this, you divide both sides by -6 to get $\frac{2}{3} x-4$ . The y-intercept is at -4 and your slope is 2/3. Use this to graph the equation.
