Tony's dorm is 7.5 miles far from the library.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are;

(4,0) and (12,6)

$x_1=4,\ \ \ \ \ \ \ y_1=0\\x_2=12,\ \ \ \ \ \ y_2=6$

Using point distance formula;

Distance = $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$Distance=\sqrt{(12-4)^2+(6-0)^2} \\Distance=\sqrt{(8)^2+(6)^2}\\Distance=\sqrt{64+36}\\Distance=\sqrt{100}\\Distance=10\ units$

One unit represents 0.75 miles, therefore,

10 units = 0.75*10 = 7.5 miles

Tony's dorm is 7.5 miles far from the library.

Answer:

1. Use a compass to make arc marks which intersect above and below then connect.

2. $y=\frac{1}{3}x + 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To construct a perpendicular line, use a compass to draw arc marks from one end of the segment through point P. Then repeat this again at the other end. This means at point P there will be two intersecting arc marks. Repeat the process down below with the same radius as used above. Then connect the two intersections.

2. The point slope form of a line is $(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)$ where $x_1=-3\\y_1=1$ . We write

$(y-1)=m(x--3)\\(y-1)=m(x+3)$

Since the line is to be perpendicular to the line shown it will have the negative reciprocal to the slope of the function 3x+y =-8. To find m, rearrange the function to be y=-8-3x. The slope is -3 and the negative reciprocal will be 1/3.

$(y-1)=\frac{1}{3}(x+3)$

Simplify for slope intercept form.

$(y-1)=\frac{1}{3}(x+3)\\(y-1)=\frac{1}{3}x+1\\y=\frac{1}{3}x + 2$

Complete the statement: If 8 = m/4 then m - 12 = ?. Explain.

andre [41]

Solve for m:
8 = m/4

8 = m/4 is equivalent to m/4 = 8:
m/4 = 8

Multiply both sides of m/4 = 8 by 4:
(4 m)/4 = 4×8

(4 m)/4 = 4/4×m = m:
m = 4×8

4×8 = 32:
Answer: m = 32 thus m - 12 = 32 -12 = 20
