Answer:

The Distance Formula itself is actually derived from the Pythagorean Theorem which is {a^2} + {b^2} = {c^2}a

2

+b

2

=c

2

where cc is the longest side of a right triangle (also known as the hypotenuse) and aa and bb are the other shorter sides (known as the legs of a right triangle).

The very essence of the Distance Formula is to calculate the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle which is represented by the letter cc.

a green right triangle with hypotenuse c (distance between two red dots) and legs a and b.

That’s why we can claim that the idea of the Distance Formula is borrowed and derived from the Pythagorean Theorem. If you want to see how the Distance Formula is derived from the Pythagorean Theorem, please check out my lesson on How to Derive the Distance Formula.

A woman who is 64 inches tall has a shoulder width of 16 inches. Write an equation relating height to the width. Find the height

Dahasolnce [82]

64in/16in = x/18.5
64•18.5= 1184
1184/16x= 16x/16x
1184/16x
x= 74 in

Graph the line that contains the point (-5,-3) and had a slope of -2

Ipatiy [6.2K]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: Is the slope

b: Is the cut-off point with the y axis

According to the data of the statement we have to:

$m = -2$

Then, the equation is of the form:

$y = -2x + b$

We substitute the point $(x, y): (- 5, -3)$ and find "b":

$-3 = -2 (-5) + b\\-3 = 10 + b\\-3-10 = b\\b = -13$

Finally, the equation is:

$y = -2x-13$

To graph we place the points $(-5, -3)$ and $(0, -13)$ on the coordinate axis and join the points by a line.

ANswer:

$y = -2x-13$

The graphic is attached.
