Find the distance between points P(9,8) and Q(7,6) to the nearest tenth.

Mathematics

sergey [27]3 years ago

Answer:

2.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of this distance as the hypotenuse of a right triangle that has a vertical leg and a horizontal one as well.

Going from P to Q, the change in x is 2 and the change in y is also 2.

Thus, by the Pythagorean Theorem, this desired distance is:

d = √(2^2 + 2^2) = 2√2 units, or 2.8 units

Answer:

x = 5√2

y = 5√6

z = 5√3

ΔABC ~ ΔBDC ~ ΔADB

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC, ΔBDC, and ΔADB are all similar triangles to each other.

By definition of similar triangles, the corresponding sides have the same ratios.

CD from ΔBDC corresponds to BD from ΔADB, and BD from ΔBDC corresponds to AD from ΔADB. So:

CD / BD = BD / AD

10 / x = x / 5

x² = 50

x = 5√2

Since ΔBDC is right, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for y:

CD² + BD² = BC²

10² + (5√2)² = y²

y² = 100 + 50 = 150

y = 5√6

Again, since ΔΔABD is right, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for z:

AD² + BD² = AB²

5² + (5√2)² = z²

z² = 25 + 50 = 75

z = 5√3

Find the indicated limit, if it exists. <br><br> See file below.
White raven [17]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

The limit exists because it's continuous since they equal each other

when x approaches zero.

Substitute both expressions with x=0 and both of them will equal 2, so the limit should be 2.

Sound policy requires that a certain number of trees be planted for every tree that is cut down for example of 8 trees are cut d
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

30 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the policy:

8 trees are cut down 48 trees will be planted

If homeowner is going to cut down five trees on his property how many trees will be planted

Since :

8 trees cut down = 48 planted

5 trees cut down = X

Cross multiply :

8 * X = 48 * 5

8X = 240

X = 240/8

X = 30

Hence, 30 trees will need to be planted

The measure of each interior angle of a regular polygon is 150 how many sides does the polygon have?
Dmitry [639]
The exterior and an interior angles always add up to 180 degrees.
180-150=One exterior angle
180-150=30
We know that all of the exterior angles add up to 360
360/30= the number of sides
360/30=12
The shape has 12 sides.
