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

Estimate the square root of 50 to the hundredths place
Anarel [89]
We have the following expression:
 root (50)
 Rewriting we have:
 root (50) = root (2 * 25)
 root (2 * 25) = 5 * root (2)
 5 * root (2) = 7.071067812
 Round to the hundredths place:
 root (50) = 7.07
 Answer:
 
the square root of 50 to the hundredths place is:

What is the equation in point-slope form of a line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (-4,6)? HURRY!!!!!!​
erastova [34]

Answer:

y - 7 = \frac{14}{-11}(x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula \frac{y2 - y1}{x2-x1} to work out the slope

Then pick one point to insert into the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1)

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Die 1 is loaded so that only 1, 4, and 6 are possible.

P(1) + P(4) + P(6) = 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 = 1

Similarly, Die 2 is loaded so that only 2, 3, and 5 are possible.

P(2) + P(3) + P(5) = 1

0.3 + 0.25 + P(5) = 1

P(5) = 0.45
