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)

Arada [10]

Answer:

The 20 pound bag is a better by for only $66.98

Step-by-step explanation:

The large bag is better because the small bag is $27.93 for 7 pounds 7x3=21,so 3x27.93=83.79 is $16.81 more than the cost for the large bag

hope this makes sense;)

The largest prime factor of thirty-five is _____. 7 5 9 11
vichka [17]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 9 and 11 do not factor 35, they are not the answer.

5 is a factor of 35, but not the largest. So, the answer is 7.
