Find the distance between the points (0, –1) and (3, –3).

To answer this, you basically use Pythagoras' Theroem, but instead of:

c = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}}

it will be :

distance = \sqrt{(y - y1)^{2} + (x - x1)^{2}  }

So you are finding the squareroot of the (difference in y coordinates)² plus (difference in x coordinates) ²:

x is the x-coordinate of (0, -1)      (so x = 0)

y is the y-coordinte of (0, -1)        ( so y = -1)

x1 is the x coordinate of (3, -3)        ( so x1 = 3)

y1 is the y coordinate of (3, -3)        (so y1 = -3)

--------------------------------------------------

Now, lets find the distance between the two points, by substituting all of this values into the equation at the top:

distance = \sqrt{(y - y1)^{2} + (x - x1)^{2}  }    <em>(substitute in values)</em>

distance = \sqrt{( 0 -3)^{2} + (-1 - -3)^{2} }   <em>(simplify: note -1 - - 3 = -1 + 3)</em>

distance = \sqrt{( -3)^{2} + (-1 +3)^{2} }     <em>(simplify)</em>

distance = \sqrt{( -3)^{2} + (2)^{2} }           <em>(now square the numbers)</em>

distance = \sqrt{9 + 4 }                   <em>(simplify)</em>

distance = \sqrt{13 }

Answer:

C. √13

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points is given by

d =sqrt( (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)

  = sqrt( (3-0)^2 + (-3--1)^2)

  = sqrt( 3^2 + (-3+1)^2)

  = sqrt( 9+(-2)^2)

  = sqrt( 9+4)

  = sqrt(13)

A family gathered 20 small sea shells from the beach brining the total number of small seashells in their collection to 41.
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

C, x + 20 = 41

Step-by-step explanation:

X represents the number of small sea shells that we originally had. When the family adds 20 more shells, that makes x + 20. The total number is 41, so that means the number of sea shells they already had (x) plus the number of sea shells they collected (20) equals the number of shells they have now (41).

Whats the sets of a function
podryga [215]

Answer:

In mathematics, a function space is a set of functions of a given kind from a set to a set . It is called a space because in many applications it is a topological space (including metric spaces), a vector space, or both.
