Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance (d) using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 9, 9)

d = \sqrt{(-9+5)^2+(9-2)^2}

  = \sqrt{(-4)^2+7^2}

  = \sqrt{16+49} = \sqrt{65} ≈ 8 ( nearest unit )

Answer:  The required distance between my house and the subway stop is 8 units.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a grid shows the positions of a subway stop and my house. The subway stop is located at (-5,2) and my house is located at (-9,9).

We are to find the distance, to the nearest unit, between my house and the subway stop.

We will be using the following formula :

<u><em>Distance formula :</em></u>  The distance between the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

D=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}.

Therefore, the distance between the points (-5, 2) and (-9, 9) is given by

D\\\\=\sqrt{(-9-(-5))^2+(9-2)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{(-9+5)^2+7^2}\\\\=\sqrt{4^2+49}\\\\=\sqrt{16+49}\\\\=\sqrt{65}\\\\=8.06.

Rounding to the nearest units, we get

D = 8 units.

Thus, the required distance between my house and the subway stop is 8 units.

You have a bag that contains 20 quarters, 20 dimes, and 15 nickels. When randomly selecting two coins with no replacement find t
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

P(2 quarters) = 19/ (13*16) = 19/208  = 0.0913

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of getting 2 quarters?

ok

first draw:  there are 20 quarters to choose from

second draw: there are 19 quarters left to choose

so Total coins are 65 coins

P(2 quarters) = P( 1st quarter)* P(2nd quarter)

P(2 quarters) =  20/65   *   (19/64)

P(2 quarters) = 4/13 *  19/64

P(2 quarters) = 19/ (13*16) = 19/208

These calculations are based on the drawing of the file enclosed.

There are three right triangles.

From the big right triangle:

a^2 + b^2 = 25^2

From the small right triangle on the left side:


(25-x)^2 + 10^2 = a^2

From the small right triangle on the right side

x^2 +10^2 = b^2

=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = a^2 + b^2

=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = 25^2

=> 25^2 - 50x + x^2 + 10^2 + 10^2 = 25^2

=> x^2 -50x + 100 =0

Use the quadratic formular to find the roots:

x = 2.1 and x = 47.9

Distance from back: 25 - 2.1 = 22.9 ft

Answer: 22.9 ft
