The answer for this question is 1468
Answer:
a= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
3/8 = (3 - 0)/(a - (-2))
cross multiplying,
3(a + 2) = 3(8)
3a + 6 = 24
3a = 18
a = 18/3
a = 6
The distance between two points on the plane is given by the formula below
![\begin{gathered} A=(x_1,y_1),B=(x_2,y_2) \\ \Rightarrow d(A,B)=\sqrt[]{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20A%3D%28x_1%2Cy_1%29%2CB%3D%28x_2%2Cy_2%29%20%5C%5C%20%5CRightarrow%20d%28A%2CB%29%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%28x_1-x_2%29%5E2%2B%28y_1-y_2%29%5E2%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Therefore, in our case,

Thus,
![\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow d(A,B)=\sqrt[]{(-1-5)^2+(-3-2)^2}=\sqrt[]{6^2+5^2}=\sqrt[]{36+25}=\sqrt[]{61} \\ \Rightarrow d(A,B)=\sqrt[]{61} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20%5CRightarrow%20d%28A%2CB%29%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B%28-1-5%29%5E2%2B%28-3-2%29%5E2%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B6%5E2%2B5%5E2%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B36%2B25%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B61%7D%20%5C%5C%20%5CRightarrow%20d%28A%2CB%29%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B61%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Therefore, the answer is sqrt(61)
In general,

Remember that

Therefore,
Volume of a prism is V=Bh
Since there are more parakeets than canaries, it is not possible to have only 1 of each bird in each cage <u>and</u> have the same number of birds in each cage.
He could use 42 cages, putting a canary in with the parakeet in 18 of them. Then he would have 18 cages with 2 birds each, and 24 cages with 1 bird each.
The only way to have the same number of birds (1) in all cages is to have 60 cages, 42 of which have 1 parakeet, and 18 of which have 1 canary.
_____
If more than 1 of each kind of bird can be put in the cage, the collection of birds could be put into 6 cages, each of which would be home to 7 parakeets and 3 canaries.
