Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Maddie = y

Ryan = x

One more than means to (add 1)

Three times means to (multiply by 3)

Maddie worked for y hours

Ryan worked for

* x hours

* three times the number of hours that Maddie did

x = 3y

one more than

x = 3y + 1

Altogether

x + y = 45 hours

(3y +1) + y = 45

3y + y = 45-1

4y = 44

y= 44/4

y =11

Ryan hours (x)

x = 3y + 1

x= 3(11) + 1

x =33+ 1

x=34

Maddie hours (y)

y=11

x + y= 45

34+11= 45

Ryan: 34 hours

Maddie: 11 hours

What is the distance between (-6,4) and (-8,6)? Choose 1 answer:
lukranit [14]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the distance between (-6, 4) and (-8, 6).

We can use the distance formula given by:

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

Let (-6, 4) be (x₁, y₁) and let (-8, 6) be (x₂, y₂).

Substitute:

d=\sqrt{(-8-(-6))^2+(6-4)^2

Evaluate:

d=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(2)^2

Evaluate:

d=\sqrt{4+4}=\sqrt{8}

Hence, our answer is D.
