Answer:

x > -2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you need to divide -5 on both sides to isolate x.

-5x < 2

x > -2/5

Because we divided by a negative number, the sign has to change direction.

Find the distance between the pair of points and then round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

$d = 9.4 units$ (nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the distance formula, $d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$ , distance between (-4, 5) and (4, 0) is calculated as follows:

Let $(-4, 5) = (x_1, y_1)$

$(4, 0) = (x_2, y_2)$

$d = \sqrt{(4 - (-4))^2 + (0 - 5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{(8)^2 + (- 5)^2}$

$d = \sqrt{64 + 25}$

$d = \sqrt{89}$

$d = 9.4 units$ (nearest tenth)

Answer:

A. $\frac{(a-b)^{2} +b^{2} }{a^{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So to get the area of a square, we need to find the length of one side.

We know the length of the larger square is a, so the area of the larger cube is $a^{2}$

We can find the length of a side of the smaller square by using pythagoreans theorem to find the hypotenuse of the triangle formed in the bottom left corner. The length of one side along the x axis is a - b, and the length of the other side, along the y-axis, is b.

We can plug it into pythagoreans theorem to get

$(a-b)^{2} +b^{2} = C^{2}$ (C represents the length of one side of the smaller square, and the hypotenuse of the triangle)
