Find the distance between Line L and Point P if Line L contains the points

Mathematics

svet-max [94.6K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  (b)  4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from a point to a line can be found using the formula. To use it, we need the equation of the line in general form.

We notice that the coordinates of the given points have the same y/x = 2/3 ratio. This means they lie on the line y = 2/3x. The equation for that line, written in general form is ...

  y = 2/3x

  3y = 2x

  2x -3y = 0 . . . . . . general form equation for the line through the points.

The formula for the distance from (x, y) to the line ax+by+c=0 is ...

  d = |ax +by +c|/√(a²+b²)

The distance from (x, y) to our line is given by the formula ...

  d = |2x -3y|/√(2² +(-3)²)

  d = |2x -3y|/√13

For point P(9, 11), the distance to the line is ...

  d = |2·9 -3·11|/√13 = |18 -33|/√13 = 15/√13 ≈ 4.2

How do you write 13.6% as a decimal or mixed number​
astraxan [27]

Answer: As a decimal it would be .136. You can write it as a decimal by dividing by 100 as you would need to get this total by multiplying by 100. Just reverse the steps into making a percentage.

Example: 70 out of 200.

You'd do 70 divided by 200 and get .35.

After, you would multiply by 100 to turn it into a percentage.

If you want to turn it into a decimal divide by 100.

The first and third terms in the following Fibonacci sequence are x and y.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

<h3>The second term of the sequence is y-x</h3><h3>The fourth term of the sequence is 2y-x</h3><h3>The fifth term of the sequence is 3y-x</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The next term of a Fibonacci sequence is generated by taking the sum of the 2 preceding value of the sequence. Given the the first and third term of a Fibonacci sequence to be x and y

x, _, y...

let the second term be a, fourth term be b and fifth term be c to have the sequence;

x, a, y, b, c...

According to the definition;

x+a = y... 1

a+y = b... 2 and;

y+b = c... 3

From equation 1, a = y-x

Substituting a = y-x into equation 2 to get b we have;

(y-x)+y = b

2y-x = b

b = 2y-x

Substituting b = 2y-x into equation 3 to get 'c'

y +  2y-x = c

3y-x = c

c = 3y-x

The second term of the sequence is y-x

The fourth term of the sequence is 2y-x

The fifth term of the sequence is 3y-x

Suppose triangle ABC is reflected over the x-axis. If the distance between point A and A’ is 14, what is the distance between th
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Given:

The triangle ABC is reflected over the x-axis.

The distance between point A and A’ is 14.

To find:

The distance between the x-axis and A’.

Solution:

If a figure is reflected across the x-axis then the corresponding parts are mirror image of each other about the x-axis.

It means the distance between A and x-axis is same as the distance between x-axis and A'.

The distance between point A and A’ is 14.

Let d be the distance between the x-axis and A’. Then,

d+d=14

2d=14

d=\dfrac{14}{2}

d=7

Therefore, the correct option is 1.
