Answer:
4 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance like magnitude is simply a positive value
----------------------------
Since the y coordinate is the same
the distance is just the difference in the x coordinates
from -5 to -1 is a distance of 4
Answer:
RS/VU=ST/UT and ∠S≅∠U
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The <u>Side-Angle-Side Similarity Theorem </u>states that: If two sides in one triangle are proportional to two sides in another triangle and the included angle in both are congruent, then the two triangles are similar
In this problem the included angle is
∠S≅∠U
therefore
side RS must be proportional to side VU and side ST must be proportional to side UT
so
RS/VU=ST/UT
<em>Verify</em>
substitute the given values
12/6=16/8
2=2 -----> is true
therefore
The two sides are proportional
-15.6 Is the answer. You do inverse
The answer is a = 3/4 = 0.75
First get rid of the paranthesis,

Then set the denominators equal:

Then remove the denominators and solve:

Eliminate -12a^2 by adding 12a^2 to both sides:

Take the fourth root of them or take the square root twice:
![\sqrt[4]{256 {a}^{4} } = \sqrt[4]{81} \\ 4a = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B256%20%7Ba%7D%5E%7B4%7D%20%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B81%7D%20%20%20%5C%5C%20%204a%20%3D%203)
Divide both sides by 4:
