What is the perimeter of a triangle with vertices of (5,1) (-3,3) (-7,-3)

timurjin [86]

$Vertices:\\
A(5,1)\\B(-3,3)\\C(-7,-3)\\\\ You\ must\ find\ length\ of\ AB,\ BC,\ AC.\\\\
A(5,1)\ \ \ \ \ \ B(-3,3)\\\\Distance\ between\ A \ and\ B:\\AB=\sqrt{(x_B-x_A)^2+(y_A-y_B)^2}\\\\AB=\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(3-1)^2}\\AB=\sqrt{8^2+2^2}\\AB=\sqrt{64+4}\\AB=\sqrt{68}
$ $
 B(-3,3)\ \ \ \ C(-7,-3)\\\\Distance\ between\ B \ and\ C:\\BC=\sqrt{(x_C-x_B)^2+(y_C-y_B)^2}\\\\BC=\sqrt{(-7-(-3))^2+(-3-3)^2}\\BC=\sqrt{(-4)^2+(-6)^2}\\BC=\sqrt{16+36}\\BC=\sqrt{52}$ $A(5,1)\ \ \ \ \ \ C(-7,-3)\\\\Distance\ between\ A \ and\ C:\\AC=\sqrt{(x_C-x_A)^2+(y_C-y_A)^2}\\\\AC=\sqrt{(-7-5)^2+(-3-1)^2}\\AC=\sqrt{(-12)^2+(-4)^2}\\AC=\sqrt{144+16}\\AC=\sqrt{160}$ $Perimeter\ of\ triangle=\ AB+AC+BC=\\\sqrt{68}+\sqrt{52}+\sqrt{160}=2\sqrt{17}+2\sqrt{13}+2\sqrt{40}$

5x+2y = 19<br> 1x + 4y=13

Mama L [17]

Answer:

{x,y} = {25/9,23/9}

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [2] for the variable x

[2] x = -4y + 13

// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]

[1] 5•(-4y+13) + 2y = 19

[1] - 18y = -46

// Solve equation [1] for the variable y

[1] 18y = 46

[1] y = 23/9

// By now we know this much :

x = -4y+13

y = 23/9

// Use the y value to solve for x
