Answer: 15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The endpoints of the line segment are $(-7,10)\ \text{and}\ (-6,-5)$

The length of the line segment is given by the distance formula i.e.

$d=\sqrt{\left( x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left( y_2-y_1\right)^2}$

Insert the values,

$\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{\left( -6+7\right)^2+\left( -5-10\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{1^2+\left( -15\right)^2}\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{1+225}\\\Rightarrow d=15.0\ \text{units}$

Therefore, the length of line segment TU is 15 units

Answer:

Line z2 : Point L

Line z1 : Point A

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the complex conjugate you flip the sign of the complex number but keep the same magnitudes.

For line z2 we can see that one of the points is $6-7i$ . To find the complex conjugate we just flip the sign. So the complex conjugate is $6+7i$ .

This means that the complex conjugate of line z2 can be represented with point: L

For line z1 we do the same thing. $1-2i$ goes to $1+2i$ . This can be represented with the point A

Help need ASAP!! Thanks!! Length of a rectangle is 5 cm longer than the width. Four squares are constructed outside the rectangl

Basile [38]

Answer:

The perimeter of rectangle is $18\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the length of the rectangle

y----> the width of the rectangle

we know that

$x=y+5$ ----> equation A

$120=xy+2x^{2}+2y^{2}$ ---> equation B (area of the constructed figure)

substitute the equation A in equation B

$120=(y+5)y+2(y+5)^{2}+2y^{2}$

$120=y^{2}+5y+2(y^{2}+10y+25)+2y^{2}\\ 120=y^{2}+5y+2y^{2}+20y+50+2y^{2}\\120=5y^{2}+25y+50\\5y^{2}+25y-70=0$

using a graphing tool -----> solve the quadratic equation

see the attached figure

The solution is

$y=2\ cm$

Find the value of x

$x=y+5$ ----> $x=2+5=7\ cm$

Find the perimeter of rectangle

$P=2(x+y)=2(7+2)=18\ cm$

Write an equation of a rational function that has a hole at 3, a vertical asymptote at -4 and a horizontal asymptote at 2

Sauron [17]

F(x)=2x(x-3)/(x+4)(x+3), Creation of the hole: have 3 as a solution for both numerator and denomenator
Formation of a vertical asymptote at -4: have the denominator equal to zero when plugging in -4 such that the denominator equals to zero,
horizontal asymptote: have the highest degree of numerator and denominator equal and the quotient of their coefficient equal to 2(ever wonder why there is an "x" in the numerator? It is to set the highest degree of the numerator and denominator equal to each other.
If you need more explanations, ask, glad to help.
