Find the distance between points A (10,-1) and B (-2,5). Round to the nearest tenth

bija089 [108]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 13.4 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

$d = \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} + ({y1 - y2})^{2} } \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

A (10,-1) and B (-2,5)

The distance is

$|AB| = \sqrt{ ({10 + 2})^{2} + ({ - 1 - 5})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {12}^{2} + ({ - 6})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{144 + 36} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ = \sqrt{180} \\ = 6 \sqrt{5} \: \: \\ =13.416407$

We have the final answer as

<h3>13.4 units to the nearest tenth</h3>

Hope this helps you

How many pairs of consecutive natural numbers have a product of less than 40000? I am in 5th grade. This is supposed to be easy

Ugo [173]

Answer:

There are 199 pairs of consecutive natural numbers whose product is less than 40000.

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice that such statement can be translated into this inequation:

$n \cdot (n+1) < 40000$

Now we solve this inequation to the highest value of $n$ that satisfy the inequation:

$n^{2}+n < 40000$

$n^{2}+n -40000$

The Quadratic Formula shows that roots are:

$n_{1,2} = \frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4\cdot (1)\cdot (-40000)}}{2\cdot (1)}$

$n_{1,2} = -\frac{1}{2}\pm \frac{1}{2} \cdot \sqrt{160001}$

$n_{1} = -\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\cdot \sqrt{160001}$

$n_{1} \approx 199.501$

$n_{2} = -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \sqrt{160001}$

$n_{2} \approx -200.501$

Only the first root is valid source to determine the highest possible value of $n$ , which is $n_{max} = 199$ . Each natural number represents an element itself and each pair represents an element as a function of the lowest consecutive natural number. Hence, there are 199 pairs of consecutive natural numbers whose product is less than 40000.
