Answer:

y = 1/2x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same gradient

So,

gradient for second line = gradient of the first line = 1/2

Also,

the line passes through (-6,-17)

So, we can find the y-intercept by substitution

y = mx + c

-17 = (1/2 * -6) + c

-17 = -3 + c

c = -14

So,

the equation is y = 1/2x - 14

Hypothenus = sqrt ((x^2 - y^2)^2 + (2xy)^2) = sqrt(x^4 - 2x^2y^2 + y^4 + 4x^2y^2) = sqrt(x^4 + 2x^2y^2 + y^4) = sqrt(x^2 + y^2)^2 = x^2 + y^2

Sati [7]

Answer:

1. 9461000000000

move the desimal in 9.461 12 places to the right to get:

9461000000000

2.

5.85 x 10^-3,

2.5 x 10^-1,

3.6 x 10^8,

8.5 x 10^8,

8.5 x 10^12

the smallest exponent is the smallest. Since 8.5 x 10^8 and 3.6 x 10^8 have the same exponent, go to the desimal
