Answer:

D = √ (x² + y²)

Step-by-step explanation:

see attached pic for reference:

in our case we are told that the points are

(0,0) and P(x,y)

substituting these into the given equation

distance D, = √ [ (x - 0)² + (y-0)²

D = √ (x² + y²)

3. What is the slope of the line represented by the equation

dusya [7]

Answer:

Slope = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use y = mx + b to find the slope (m) Write the expression as an equation (-14y)-7x=0. Rewrite in slope-intercept form by removing the parentheses, adding 7x to both sides, dividing each term by -14, then writing in y = mx + b form, which is m=-1/2x. Remove the variable, it becomes your answer of -1/2.

For some integer n, the first, the third and the fifth terms of an arithmetic sequence are respectively 3n, 5n – 6, and 11n + 8.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

a₄=8n+1= -39.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) if a₁=3n; a₃=5n-6 and a₅=11n+8, then it is possible to calculate the difference according to 0.5(a₅-a₃)=0.5(a₃-a₁). Then

2) 0.5(11n+8-5n+6)=0.5(5n-6-3n); ⇔ 6n+14=2n-6; ⇔ n= -5.

3) if n=-5, then the 4th term is:

$a_4=\frac{a_5+a_3}{2}; \ = > \ a_4=\frac{11n+8+5n-6}{2}=8n+1;$

or a₄=-39.
