Answer:

Option C √32 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

x₁ = 8

x₂ = 4

y₁ = (-3)

y₂ = (-7)

Now,

By Using Distance Formula

D = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

= √(4 - 8)² + [(-7) - (-3)]²

= √(-4)² + [(-7) + 3]²

= √16 + (-4)²

= √16 + 16

D = √32

Thus, The distance between (8, -3) and (4, -7) is √32

David & his 2 brothers deliver papers. Each 1 can deliver a paper every 2 minutes, and all 3 deliver 147 papers. How long do

garri49 [273]

Well, each one takes two minutes, regardless of how many brothers there are. If it takes 2 minutes per paper, then the answer is simply 147*2. Which is 297 minutes. Even if one of them was delivering papers, the answer would be the same. These extra numbers are put in there to confuse you. Dont forget that, be careful what you read.

Answer:

y-5 = 3/2(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form of the equation of a line is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y-5 = 3/2(x-3)

A certain triangle has a perimeter of 3084 mi. The shortest side measures 76 mi less than the middle side, and the longest side

kari74 [83]

shortest side: 851

middle side:927

longest side : 1306

Explanation

Step 1

Let

x represents the shortest side

y represents the middle side

z represents the longest side

so, set the equations

a) the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the sides, so

$\begin{gathered} \text{Perimeter= side1+side2+side3} \\ replace \\ 3084=x+y+z \\ x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \end{gathered}$

b) The shortest side measures 76 mi less than the middle side( in other words, you have to subtract 76 from middle side to get the shortest side)

$x=y-76\Rightarrow equation(2)$

c) and the longest side measures 379 mi more than the middle side,( in other words, you have to add 379 to middle side to obtain the longest side)

$z=y+379\Rightarrow equation(3)$

Step 2

solve the equations

a) now, replace the x an z value sfrom equation (2) and (3) into equation(1)

$\begin{gathered} x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \\ (y-76)+y+(y+379)=3084 \\ -76+3y+379=3084 \\ 303+3y=3084 \\ 3y=3084-303 \\ \\ 3y=2781 \\ \text{divide both sides by 3} \\ \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{2781}{3} \\ y=927 \end{gathered}$

now, replace the y value in equatino (2) to find x

$\begin{gathered} x=y-76\Rightarrow equation(2) \\ x=927-76 \\ x=851 \end{gathered}$

c) finally, prelace x and y value in equation (1) to find z

$\begin{gathered} x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \\ 851+927+z=3084 \\ \text{add like terms} \\ 1778+z=3084 \\ \text{subtract 1778 in both sides} \\ 1778+z-1778=3084-1778 \\ z=1306 \end{gathered}$

shortest side: 851

middle side:927

longest side : 1306
