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

2n+7+7n=13+3n+8n <br><br><br>please help
Rasek [7]

first combine like terms so 2n + 7n which is 9n


so 9n + 7 = 13 + 3n + 8n


then combine on other side so 9n + 7 = 13 + 11n

then subtract 7 to 13 so 6

sp 9n + 6 = 11n

then subtract 9 to the other side so 2n


6 = 2n then divide all by 2

n= 3
