If a=(-1, -3) and b=(11, -8) what is the length of ab?

Mathematics
1 answer:

8 0

Answer: D.  The length is 13 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1, -3 )    Find the difference between the x values and y values.

 (11, -8)  

-3-(-8) = 5

-1-11 =   -12    now find the  absolute values.

The absolute value of 5 is 5 .  The absolute value of  -12 is 12.

Now use the Pythagorean Theorem formula a^2 + b^2 =c^2  where c square is the length between AB.

5^2 + 13^2 = C^2

25 + 144 = c^2  

169=c^2

c= 13

A bicycle wheel makes five rotations. the bicycle travels 44.48 ft. Find the diameter of the wheel in inches.
Tema [17]

Answer:

2.42 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the bicycle wheel rotates 5 times and travels 37.94 feet, then we know that the circumference of the wheel (the outside of the wheel as it touches the ground 5 times around) is 37.94/5 = 7.588

 

Then we use the formula for the circumference of a circle: 2(pi)(radius) = circumference

 

We plug in what we know 2(3.14)(radius) = 7.588 and then solve for the radius

 

We divide 2 from both sides of the equation (3.14)(radius) = 3.794

 

We divide pi from both sides (radius) = 1.208

 

Then the last step, we multiply the radius by 2, because we need the diameter, which is double the radius

 

1.208 * 2 = 2.416 or 2.42 rounded up

 

Final answer = 2.42 feet

Bryce tried to solve an equation step by step. \qquad\begin{aligned} \dfrac83&=3\left(c+\dfrac53\right)\\\\ \\ \dfrac83&
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Bryce is wrong in step 1 because he did not distribute 3 over 5/3

Explanation

Given the steps taken by bryce as shown, we are to find where he made an error

\qquad\begin{aligned} \dfrac83&=3\left(c+\dfrac53\right)\\\\ \\ \dfrac83&=3c+\dfrac53&\green{\text{Step } 1}\\\\ \\ 1&=3c&\blue{\text{Step } 2}\\\\ \\ \dfrac13&=c&\purple{\text{Step } 3}\\\\ \end{aligned}

Given the expression;

\dfrac83&=3\left(c+\dfrac53\right)\\\\ \\

Step 1:Expand the bracket using the distributive law;

8/3 = 3c + 3(5/3)

<em>Simplify</em>

8/3 = 3c + 15/3

Step 2: Subtract 15/3 from both sides

8/3 - 15/3 = 3c+15/3-15/3

(8-15)/3 = 3c

-7/3 = 3c

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 1/3

-7/3 * 1/3 = 3c * 1/3

-7/9 = c

Swap

c = -7/9

From the calculation, we can see that Bryce is wrong in step 1 because he did not distribute 3 over 5/3 thereby making his solution incorrect
