Given:

Point B has coordinates ​(4,1).

The​ x-coordinate of point A is -4.

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

To find:

The possible coordinates of point​ A.

Solution:

Let the y-coordinate of point A be y. Then the two points are A(-4,y) and B(4,1).

Distance formula:

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

\sqrt{(4-(-4))^2+(1-y)^2}=10

Taking square on both sides, we get

(8)^2+(1-y)^2=100

(1-y)^2=100-64

(1-y)^2=36

Taking square root on both sides, we get

(1-y)=\pm \sqrt{36}

-y=\pm 6-1

y=1\mp 6

y=1-6 and y=1+6

y=-5 and y=7

Therefore, the possible coordinates of point​ A are either (-4,-5) or (-4,7).

Help!!! will give brainlyest if explained
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x - 3y = - 2 → (1)

4x + y = 24 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 2 and adding to (2) gives

- 4x + 6y = 4 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term

(4x - 4x) + (y + 6y) = (24 + 4), that is

7y = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = 4

Substitute y = 4 into either of the 2 equations

Substituting y = 4 into (2)

4x + 4 = 24 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

4x = 20 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 5

Thus the answers x = 5 and y = 4 are the same as her first method

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(x - 5) = 8x + 4 - 6x ← distribute left side and simplify right side

4x - 20 = 2x + 4 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x - 20 = 4 ( add 20 to both sides )

2x = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 12
