Point QQQ is located at (-4, 6)(−4,6)left parenthesis, minus, 4, comma, 6, right parenthesis. Point RRR is located at (8, 6)(8,6)left parenthesis, 8, comma, 6, right parenthesis.
What is the distance from point QQQ to point RRR?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  12 units

=========================================================

Explanation:

Points Q and R have the same y coordinate of 6.

This means they're on the same horizontal level and we can form a number line through these points. Think of Q and R being on the x axis.

Going from -4 to 8 is a distance of 12 units because either

-4-8 = -12 which flips to +12 or 12

8-(-4) = 8+4 = 12

Effectively I used absolute value for the first part to go from -12 to 12. Distance cannot be negative.

Alternatively, you can count out the number of horizontal spaces from -4 to 8 and you should count out 12 units.

--------------------------------

If you need to use the distance formula, then this is what the steps may look like:

[tex]Q = (x_1,y_1) = (-4,6) \text{ and } R = (x_2, y_2) = (8,6)\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-4-8)^2 + (6-6)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-12)^2 + (0)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{144 + 0}\\\\d = \sqrt{144}\\\\d = 12\\\\[/tex]

In my opinion, the distance formula is overkill because we can simply apply subtraction or count out the number of spaces. It's up to you which you prefer you like better. Of course be sure to follow all instructions your teacher mentions.

If the two points weren't on the same horizontal level, then we would have no choice and have to use the distance formula. Or you could use the pythagorean theorem which is effectively what the distance formula is derived from.

The time in seconds, t, it takes for a specific object being dropped from a particular height in feet above sea level, h, to reach the ground can be found by the radical function t equals one fourth times radical h period At what height should you drop an object in order for it to reach the ground in 16 seconds?

Answers

Answer:

B.) 4,096 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

You were given a time, and time in the equation is represented by "t". To find the height, represented by "h", you just need to plug the given value in for "t" and simplify to find "h".

t = (1/4)√x                                         <--- Original equation

16 = (1/4)√x                                      <--- Plug 16 in "t"

64 = √x                                            <--- Divide both sides by (1/4)

4,096 ft = x                                    <--- Square both sides

The object reach the ground in 16 seconds, you should drop it from a height of 4096 feet.

The equation is t=1/4 √x , where t is time in seconds and x is height in feet. To determine the height  x at which an object should be dropped to reach the ground in 16 seconds, you can plug in the value of t=16 into the equation:

16 = 1/4 √x

Simplify the equation by multiplying both sides by 4:

4⋅16= √x

64= √x

Now, square both sides to isolate x:

64²=x

4096 = x

Therefore, to have the object reach the ground in 16 seconds, you should drop it from a height of 4096 feet.

The probability that two boys will be selected is 0.3 .

What is Probability ?

Probability is defined as the study of likelihood of an event.

It has the range of 0 to 1.

Probability is equal to the ratio of possibility of an event to total occurrences

It is given in the question that

There are total 5 children , 3 boys and the 2 girls

Total outcome = 5

The probability of selection of first boy is 3/5

Total outcome = 4

No. of boys left to be selected = 4

The probability of selection of second boy is 2/4

Therefore the probability that two boys will be selected

= (3/5)*(2/4)

= (3/5)*(1/2)

=3/10

= 0.3

Answers

Answer:

Not similar

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have scratch paper, its best to label the angles and sides given. You can also rotate the orientation of one of the triangles if that helps visually.

First lets look at the sides.

Notice the common factor between side AB and side XY.

14/7=2

Notice the common factor between side AC and side XZ.

22/11=2

So far so good right? Well, IF these triangles are similar, that means that angle X must correspond to angle A. Since corresponding angles of similar triangles are equal to each other, lets check of angle X is equal to angle A.

Angle X = 29 degrees

Angle A = 28 degrees

28 does not equal 29 degrees. Therefore, the triangles are not similar. If angles X and A were equal, than the triangles would have been similar due to the Side-Angle-Side rule (SAS).

Step-by-step explanation:

A vertical angle is formed from the rays that are opposite the rays that form the original angle.

__

opposite rays

The rays forming angle CXD are rays XC and XD. The ray opposite XC will have end point X, and can be named by either of the two points shown on the ray: A or P. That is, rays XA and XP are opposite ray XC.

Similarly, rays XB and XQ are opposite ray XD.

vertical angle

The vertical angle can be named using either of the first pair of opposite rays with either of the second pair:

  ∠AXB, ∠PXB, ∠AXQ, ∠PXQ

Of course, the ray names can be reversed in the angle names:

  ∠BXA, ∠BXP, ∠QXA, ∠QXP

The ratio of f to g to h is:

First, we know that g is the 60% of h, then we can write:

g = 0.6*h

Now we can write the 0.6 as a fraction, then 0.6 = 3/5.

g = (3/5)*h

So we can write:

5*g = 3*h

So the ratio of g to h is 3:5

Now, we know that f is a third of g:

f = (1/3)*g

3f = g

So the ratio of f to g is:
