Answer:
12.1
Step-by-step explanation:
The dashed line joining M₁ and M₂ is the hypotenuse of a right triangle as shown in red below.
The base of the triangle is
x₂ - x₁ = 2 - (-3) = 2+ 3 = 5
The height of the triangle is
y₂ - y₁ = 16 - 5 = 11
We can now use Pythagoras' theorem to calculate distance between the two midpoints.
x² = 5² + 11² = 25 + 121 = 146
x = √146 =
12.1
The distance between M₁ and M₂ is 12.1.
Answer:
m∠A = 31
b = 13.3
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>X - Intercept</u>
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
0 = -x² + 4x - 4
x = <u>-(4) +/- √((4)² - 4(-1)(-4))</u>
2(-1)
x = <u>-4 +/- √(16 - 16)</u>
-2
x = <u>-4 +/- √(0)
</u> -2<u>
</u> x = <u>-4 +/- 0
</u> -2<u>
</u> x = <u>-4 + 0</u> x = <u>-4 - 0</u>
-2 -2
x = <u>-4</u> x = <u>-4</u>
-2 -2
x = 2 x = 2
The solution to the problem is {2, 2}, or {2}. The x - intercept of the problem is (2, 0).
<u>Y - Intercept</u>
f(x) = -x² + 4x - 4
f(x) = -(0)² + 4(0) - 4
f(x) = -(0) + 0 - 4
f(x) = -0 + 0 - 4
f(x) = 0 - 4
f(x) = -4
The y - intercept of the problem is (0, -4).

6/14 = 7/x
so
x = 7 * 14 / 6
x = 98/6
x = 16.3
answer
D. x = 16.3
