Find the distance between the points (9, 8) and (5, 3).

Answer:

\sqrt{41} units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between two points, we can use the Pythagorean theorem by creating a right-angled triangle where sides a and b are the distances between the y-coordinates and x-coordinates of each point.

First let's find the distance between the x-coordinates:

(9,8): x-coordinate is 9, and (5,3): x-coordinate is 5.

9 - 5 = 4

The first side of our triangle is 4 units.

y-coordinates:

8 - 3 = 5

The second side of our triangle is 5 units.

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

4^{2} +5^{2} =c^{2} \\16 +25 =c^{2} \\41 = c^{2} \\\sqrt{41} =\sqrt{c^{2} } \\\sqrt{41} = c

Squareroot 41 is fully simplified as 41 is a prime number.

I have attached a picture to help visualize the triangle.

Hope this helped!

<h3>Answer: 10^(1/2)</h3>

When we use an exponent of 1/2, it is the same as a square root. The more general rule is

\sqrt{x} = x^{1/2}

In this case, we plug in x = 10.

The use of a fractional exponent is handy when you want to deal with things like cube roots on a calculator. This is because

\sqrt[3]{x} = x^{1/3}

Many calculators don't have a button labeled \sqrt[3]{} but they have the button x^y to allow fractional exponents.

A rubber ball has a radius of about 2.86 in. Can the ball be packaged in a box shaped like a cube with a volume of 125 in3?
Sonja [21]

volume of the ball = 4/3 * PI *r^3 =

4/3 * 3.14 * 2.86^3 = 97.99 cubic inches

 this is less than the volume of the box, so yes it will fit

Use the given equation to determine if the points in the brackets are on the graph
dmitriy555 [2]

The points in the brackets are on the graph are (0, 2) and (6, 10)

<h3>How to determine if the points in the brackets are on the graph?</h3>

The equation of the line is given as

4x - 3y = -6

The points are given as:

{(0,2),(1,3),(4,7),(6,10)}

Rewrite as

(x, y) = {(0,2),(1,3),(4,7),(6,10)}

Next, we substitute the x and y values in the equation 4x - 3y = -6

So, we have

(0, 2):

4(0) - 3(2) = -6

-6 = -6 ---- true

(1, 3):

4(1) - 3(3) = -6

-5 = -6 ---- false

(4, 7):

4(4) - 3(7) = -6

-5 = -6 ---- false

(6, 10):

4(6) - 3(10) = -6

-6 = -6 ---- true

Hence, the points in the brackets are on the graph are (0, 2) and (6, 10)

Im confused is 3a the same as 5a squared or 4b to 4b squared​
NeX [460]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to be like terms, the variables and exponents must be the same.

3a can be combined with 14a and 4a.

4b can be combined with 3b and 16b.

a² cannot be combined with any of the terms.
