Answer: The distance is sqrt(40).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)
(Look at the image I attached)
Let's set a = 2 and b = 6. The mystery side is c, which is opposite to the right angle that is formed when you draw perpendicular lines from each of the points.
(2)^2 + (6)^2 = c^2 <--- First, we need to simplify
4 + 36 = c^2
40 = c^2 <--- Now, we need to take the square root of both sides.
c = sqrt(40)
So, the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2) is sqrt(40). I recommend looking at some videos on Khan Academy if you need more help! Let me know if you want me to attach a link that you can visit.
Answer:
The linear function becomes:
y = 15x + 10
Here, 'x' is the number of hours, b=10 is the initial service fee i.e. $10, 15 is slope or rate of change, and 'y' is the cost.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the slope-intercept of a linear function is
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
Note: Slope is also termed as the 'rate of change'.
Given that Aron charges an initial service fee of 10$.
Thus, the y-intercept = b = 10
As the rate of change = 15$ per hour
so the slope = m = 15
Therefore, the linear function becomes:
y = 15x + 10
Here, 'x' is the number of hours, b=10 is the initial service fee i.e. $10, 15 is slope or rate of change, and 'y' is the cost.
For example, in one hour i.e. x = 1, the cost 'y' will be:
y = 15x + 10
y = 15(1) + 10
y = 25 + 10
y = $25
Therefore, in one hour (x=1), the cost will be: y = $25
