Answer:

18 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to do this is to start at 0 and go 3 1/4 units to your right.

Then start at 0 and go -15 units to your left. So far I have not used a formula because I want you to see intuitively what the answer is. Then we'll do it with a formula.

The total distance is 3 1/4 + 15 = 18 1/4. Purists will hate the way I've done it, but beginners should understand what they are doing.

A formula would look like this

distanace = sqrt( x2 - x1 )^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )

distance = sqrt( (3 1/4 - - 15)^2 + (4 - 4)^2 )

distance = sqrt( (18 1/4 )^2 + 0)

distance = 18 1/4

Answer:

d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to know what d would be when x = -1, so we can start off by plugging in -1 for x to get the following equation: $\sqrt{8 - (-1)} = 2(-1)+d$ . On the left hand side, 2 negatives become a positive sign, so the -(-1) becomes a +1, and 8+1 would equal 9. On the right hand side, we just multiply 2 and -1 to get -2. So, the equation now looks like this: $\sqrt{9} = d-2$ . We know that $\sqrt{9}$ = 3, so we would get 3 = d-2. THen we would add 2 to both sides to get d = 5. Hope this helps!

If it's $8 for four bottles how much is each bottle?

cluponka [151]

Hi there! $8 per 4 bottles means price/# of bottles will give you the average price per bottle.

8/4=$2

Therefore it is $2 for 1 bottle.

Hope this helps!
