I need more assistance :D Instructions: Using the image, find the distance between the points given on the graph.
1 answer:
Answer:
I usually explain even in the answer.
So we use something called distance formula which is branched of Pythagorean theorem.
But we dont need to as it just makes it more complicated. We need to find split into 2 vectors, one vertical, and horizontal. The horizontal is 5 long.
The vertical is 1, you can find them by calculating how long is it and how tall.
Use pythogorean theorem from the formula and do 5^2+1^2 = c^2
25+1 = 26, so the answer is √26
I am pretty sure answer is right. Always take abolute value
<u>√26</u>

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Correct Question: A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes. The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes. Which proportion represents the situation?
We have , A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes , i.e.
Number of beef stew calls = 1
Number of potatoes = 3
Now , The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes i.e. for every 2 pounds of beef we have 6 potatoes
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
Therefore , Pounds of beef and potatoes are in ratio or proportion of .
<h2>Answer:</h2>
For a better understanding of this problem, see the figure below. Our goal is to find . Since:
and is a common side both for ΔMRN and ΔMQN, then by SAS postulate, these two triangles are congruent and:
By Pythagorean theorem, for triangle NQP:
Applying Pythagorean theorem again, but for triangle MQN:
