Answer:
8.5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between two points is given by

Taking points (-12, 11) and (-18, 17) as the first and second points respectively then


d=8.48528137423857 units
Rounded off to nearest tenths
d=8.5 units
We must take into account the following change of units:

Applying the change of units we have that the electric consumption for 1 year is given by:

Then, the total cost is given by:
Answer:
the cost of operating a 3.00-w electric clock for a year is:
$ 2.3652
M will represent Matt and J is Jackson. M-2.25=J. You minus the difference between them and show that it equals to Jacksons. A variable is a number in math that can vary.
We substitute the given into the equation
given: a=-1, b=2, c=

to continue, we can either find a common denominator or change the fraction to decimal.
Fraction to Decimal:

=-2.5
Equation=-2.5-1=-3.5
OR Common Denominator:
