Answer: (8,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The line that connects (-4,5) and (2,3) has a slope of (-2/6) or -1/3. The y-intercept is calculated from one of the points: 3 = -(1/3)*(2) + b

b = 3 2/3

The equation for the line is y = -(1/3)x + 3 2/3

The reflection covers a distance of x of (2 - (-4)) = 6. Add 6 to the x value of (2,3) and calculate the resulting y. (8,y): y = -(1/3)(8) + 3 2/3, y = -8/3 + 11/3 = 3/3 or 1

The point is (8,1)

Distance formula: distance = sqrt((x2-x1)^2 + (y2 -y1)^2))

Distance = sqrt(( -3 - -3)^2 + (9-4)^2))

Distance = sqrt(25)

Distance = 5

Find the distance between points M and N. and if anyone could kinda explain how they got it so i can do the next ones on my own

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

$\sqrt{13} = D$

Step-by-step explanation:

Method #1

We can draw a right triangle on the graph upon where the points are located and use the Pythagorean Theorem:

${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}$

${3}^{2} + {2}^{2} = {c}^{2}$

$9 + 4 = {c}^{2}$

$13 = {c}^{2}$

$\sqrt{13} = c$

* Whenever we talk about distance, we ONLY want the NON-NEGATIVE root.

_______________________________________________

Method #2

We can use the Distance Formula:

$\sqrt{[-x_1 + x_2]^{2} + [-y_1 + y_2]^{2}} = D$

N[−3, 2] M[−6, 0]

$\sqrt{[3 - 6]^{2} + [0 + 2]^{2}} = D$

$\sqrt{[-3]^{2} + 2^{2}} = D$

$\sqrt{9 + 4} = D$

$\sqrt{13} = D$

* Whenever we talk about distance, we ONLY want the NON-NEGATIVE root.

** You see? It does not matter which method you choose, as long as you are doing the work correctly.
