Answer:

x = $\frac{bc}{a+2b}$

Step-by-step explanation:

x(a + b) = b(c - x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

ax + bx = bc - bx ( add bx to both sides )

ax + 2bx = bc ← factor out x from each term on the left side

x(a + 2b) = bc ← divide both sides by (a + 2b)

x = $\frac{bc}{a+2b}$

The distance between the points (12,9) and (0,4) is A) 14 units B) 13 units C) 15 units D) 16 units

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Option B 13 units is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used to find distance between 2 points is:

$d(P1,P2)=\sqrt{(x_{2} -x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} -y_{1})^2 }$

x₁ = 12 x₂ = 0 y₁= 9 and y₂=4

Putting values in the formula:

$=\sqrt{(0-12)^2+(4-9)^2}\\=\sqrt{(-12)^2+(-5)^2}\\=\sqrt{144+25} \\=\sqrt{169} \\=13$

So, Option B 13 units is correct.
