You are setting up a zip line in your yard. You map out your yard in a coordinate plane. An equation of the line representing th

e zip line is y=2x+4. There is a tree in your yard at the point (−4, 11). Each unit in the coordinate plane represents 1 foot. Approximately how far away is the tree from the zip line? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

Distance is 6.7units to the nearest tenth.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we the distance formula. And this is given as:

D = \frac{|a x + b y + c|}{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}

We were given the equation:

y = 2 x + 4

This can also be rewritten as:

y – 2 x – 4 = 0.

Therefore, a = -2, b = 1 and c = -4

Also, we were given the points:

(x, y) = (–4, 11)

Making use of the above formula for distance, we have:

D = \frac{|-2\times -4 + 1\times 11 + -4|}{\sqrt{-2^2 + -4^2}}

D = \frac{15}{\sqrt{5}}

D = 6.7units (to the nearest tenth)

Find the value of x and y in the given parallelogram
frez [133]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9y-4 = 50

9y = 54

y= 6

9y-4+7x+xy = 180

9(6)-4+7x+6x= 180

54-4+13x = 180

13x+50 = 180

13x = 130

x = 10

How many solutions does the equation have?
SSSSS [86.1K]
Let's solve and find out.

4(2n - 4) + 3 = 8n - 19
8n - 16 + 3 = 8n - 19
8n - 13 = 8n - 19
-13 = -19

-13 and -19 are not equal, so the equation has no solutions.
