Answer:

B,5.4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram RSTU

R(1,1),S(7,0),T(10,4),U(4,5)

slope of RU m=(5-1)/(4-1)=4/3

slope of RS=(0-1)/(7-1)=-1/6=-1/6

slope of ST=(4-0)/(10-7)=4/3

slope of  TU=(5-4)/(4-10)=1/(-6)=-1/6

RU||ST

eq. of line RU is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=4/3(x-1)

3y-3=4x-4

4x-3y-4+3=0

4x-3y-1=0

perpendicular distance of a point (x1,y1) from line ax+by+c=0 is

d=\frac{ax1+by1+c}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2} } \\

perpendicular distance of (7,0) from 4x-3y-1=0

d=\frac{4(7)-3(0)-1}{\sqrt{4^2+(-3)^2} } \\=\frac{28-1}{\sqrt{16+9} }\\=\frac{27}{5} \\=5.4~units

What is |x+2|>12? Solve for the absolute value inequality.
pshichka [43]

Answer:

x < - 14 or x > 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities of the type | x | > a always have solutions of the form

x < - a OR x > a, thus

x + 2 < - 12 OR x + 2 > 12 ( subtract 2 from left side of both inequalities )

x < - 14 OR x > 10
