Answer:

6.7

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to calculate the distance between two points in the XY coordinate plane.

The formula to calculate this distance is:

d = sqrt(dx^2 + dy^2)

where dx is the difference between the X coordinate of the points, dy is the difference between the Y coordinate of the points, and d is the distance.

(sqrt is the square root of what is in the parenthesis)

The first point (April's king) has X=4 and Y=2, the second point (the opponent's king) has X=7 and Y=8.

So, we have that dx = 4-7 = -3 and dy = 2-8 = -6

Now, we calculate the distance:

d = sqrt[ (-3)^2 + (-6)^2 ] = sqrt(9+36) = sqrt(45) = 6.7082 = 6.7

Darya [45]

Answer:

718\ min

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of minutes

y ----> the total charge in dollars

we know that

For x>700 min

y=0.45x+40

so

For y=48.10

substitute

48.10=0.45x+40

Multiply by 100 both sides

4,810=45x+4,000 ----> equation without decimals

solve for x

45x=4,810-4,000\\45x=810\\x=18\ min

To find out the total minutes we need to sum

18\ min+700\ min=718\ min

Determine the angle at the centre of a circle with radius 6.0 cm for an arc length of 8.0 cm.
sveta [45]

Answer:

Third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember that the formula used to calculate the arc lenght is:

arc\ length=r C

Where "r" is the radius and "C" is the central angle in radians.

You need to solve for "C":

C=\frac{arc\ length}{r}

You know the radius and the arc lenght, therefore, you can substitute values to calculate the central angle in radians. Therefore, this is:

C=\frac{8.0cm}{6.0cm}

C=\frac{4}{3}radians
