Given:

The given statement is "6 less than the difference of 5 and a number".

To find:

The variable expression for the given statement.

Solution:

Let n be the unknown number or the variable.

We know that minus sign is used to represent the difference between two numbers.

Difference of 5 and a number is (5-n).

6 less than the difference of 5 and a number is (5-n)-6.

The required expression for the given statement is (5-n)-6.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

What are the vertices of AA'B'C'if AABC is dilated by a scale factor of 4?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the dilatation is centred at the origin, then multiply each of the coordinates by 4 , that is

A (0, 10 ) → A' (4(0), 4(10) ) → A' (0, 40 )

B (8, 6 ) → B' (4(8), 4(6) ) → B' (32, 24 )

C (4, 2 ) → C' (4(4), 4(2) ) → C' (16, 8 )

What is the distance between A(-8, 4) and B(4, -1)?
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The distance between A(-8, 4) and B(4, -1) is 13 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between any two points, we can use the distance formula given by:

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

We have the two points A(-8, 4) and B(4, -1). Let A(-8, 4) be (<em>x₁, y₁</em>) and let B(4, -1) be (<em>x₂, y₂</em>). Substitute:

d=\sqrt{(4-(-8))^2+(-1-4)^2}

Evaluate:

d=\sqrt{(12)^2+(-5)^2}

So:

d=\sqrt{144+25}=\sqrt{169}=13\text{ units}

The distance between A(-8, 4) and B(4, -1) is 13 units.
