Distance between A (2, -1) and (2,a) is 4 units. Find the value of a where a is positive.

Mathematics
1 answer:
kolezko [41]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula and equate to 4

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2    }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, a)

d = \sqrt{(2-2)^2+(a+1)^2} = \sqrt{0+(a+1)^2} = \sqrt{(a+1)^2} = a + 1 then

a + 1 = 4 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

a = 3

Suppose the y-intercept of an exponential function is positive and the common ratio (r) is greater than 1. For this graph, as x
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Increase (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the common ratio is greater than 1, that means the y-value increases as the x-value increases.

If the common ratio is 1, that means the y-value stays the same as the x-value increases.

If the common ratio is between 0 and 1, that means the y-value decreases and approaches 0 ad the x-value increases.

Because the common ratio is greater than 1, the answer is A, increases

P partitions GR in ratio 2:4. GR is 36cm. How long is GP and PR?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

12 cm and 24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is divided in the ratio 2 : 4 = 2x : 4x ( x is a multiplier )

The sum is therefore

2x + 4x = 36

6x = 36 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 6

Thus

GP =  2x = 2 × 6 = 12 cm

PR = 4x = 4 × 6 = 24 cm

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

In my opinion both of the lines are tangent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because a tangent to a circle is a straight line which touches the circle at only one point. This point is called the point of tangency. The tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius at the point of tangency.
