Find the distance between the points given. (-3, 2) and (9, -3) A √37 B √61 C 13

Kitty [74]

Answer:

$\huge{ \fbox{ \sf{13 \: units}}}$

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\star{ \sf{ \: Let \: the \: points \: be \: a \: and \: b}}$

$\star{ \sf{ \: let \: A(-3, 2) \: be \: (x1 \:, y1) \: and \: B(9, -3) \: be \: (x2 \:, y2) }}$

$\underline{ \sf{Finding \: the \: distance \: between \: the \: given \: points}} :$

$\boxed{ \sf{Distance = \sqrt{ {(x2 - x1)}^{2} + {(y2 - y1)}^{2} } }}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {(9 - ( - 3))}^{2} + {( - 3 - 2)}^{2} } }}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {(9 + 3)}^{2} + {( - 3 - 2)}^{2} }}}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {(12)}^{2} + {( - 5)}^{2} } }}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ \sqrt{144 + 25}}}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ \sqrt{169} }}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ \sqrt{ {(13)}^{2} } }}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{ 13 \: units}}$

Hope I helped!

Identify the percent of change as an increase or decrease. Then find the percent of change, rounding to the nearest tenth of a p

kap26 [50]

Answer:

-60% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

60 is the old value and 24 is the new value.

percent change = $\frac{new - old}{|old|}$ x 100%

so for this problem, you can substitute the values given in the formula:

percent change = $\frac{60-24}{|60|}$ x 100% = $\frac{-36}{60}$ x 100% =

-60% (decrease)

Can someone help me

barxatty [35]

Answer:

y= (-6/5)x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b , where m is the slope, and b is the y -intercept

the y -intercept is where the line intersects the y-axis so b = -2

the slope m= y(rise) /x(run) = 6/-5 = -6/5 ( to find the slope you have to know how to get from any point on the line to another point on the same line; start at point (0,-2) go up 6(y-rise) and to the left 5(x-run) at point (-5,4))

y= (-6/5)x -2

The width of a rectangle is 7 inches less than its length. The area of the rectangle is 120 square inches. Solve for the dimensi

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Length is 15 inches

Width is 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A = L*W

the Width = L-7

120 = L (L-7)

120 = L^2-7L

subtract 120 from each side

0 = L^2 - 7L - 120

(L-15) (L +8 )

so L = 15 inches

and W = 15-7 = 8 inches

check your answer: does 15*8 = 120? yes!
