Answer:

StartRoot 53 EndRoot units

XY = √53

Step-by-step explanation:

Choose which is point 1 and point 2 so you don't confuse the coordinates.

Point 1 (–4, 0) x₁ = –4 y₁ = 0

Point 2 (3, 2) x₂ = 3 y₂ = 2

Use the formula for the distance between two points.

$L = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}$

$XY = \sqrt{(3-(-4))^{2} + (2-0)^{2}}$

$XY = \sqrt{49 + 4}$

$XY = \sqrt{53}$

Therefore the line of segment XY is √53.

The height of a cylinder is twice the radius of its base. A cylinder has a height of 2 x and a radius of x. What expression repr

cluponka [151]

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>volume of the cylinder = 2π $x^{3}$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a cylinder is twice the radius of its base.

Let the height of the cylinder = 2x

Let the radius of the cylinder = x

By formula, volume of the cylinder = π $r^{2}$ h

here r = x, h = 2x

substituting the values in the equation, we get

volume of the cylinder = π $r^{2}$ h = π $x^{2}$ (2x)

volume of the cylinder = 2π $x^{3}$

A scientist is studying tulips and daffodils. The scientist estimates that there are 150 tulips in the population of 600 tulips

Flauer [41]

Answer: Last Option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of tulips and daffodils = 600

Number of tulips = 150

Number of daffodils is given by

$600-150\\\\=450$

So, We can get the ratio of tulips to daffodils which is given by

$Tulips:Daffodils\\\\150:450\\\\1:3$

So, we need to choose a random sample of flowers to represent the population.

1) He can choose 50 flowers.

As there are 1:3 of tulip and daffodils flowers but if we divide 50 by 4 it will give a decimal number, so it can't represent the required thing.

2) He can choose 25 tulips and 25 daffodils

As they are divided into 1:1 so, it can't represent the 1:3 tulip to daffodils population.

3) He can choose 15 tulips and 60 daffodils

As it is divided into 1:4 inspite of 1:3.So it can't represent the required population.

4) He can choose 10 tulips and 30 daffodils.

So, Last option which states that he can choose 10 tulips and 30 daffodils as in this case the ratio of tulips to daffodils is 1:3.

Hence, Last Option is correct.

If you know that a < b, and both a and b are positive numbers, then what must be true about the relationship between the oppo

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The number further left on a number line is the smaller number. For positive numbers, the number closest to zero is smaller. For negative numbers, the number closest to zero is larger. If a is less than b, and they are both positive, then a is closer to 0 than b. The opposite of a is also closer to zero than the opposite of b, so the opposite of a must be larger than the opposite of b.

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (8, 1) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y=−23x+5

elena-s [515]

Answer:

$y-1=\frac{1}{23} (x-8)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation of a line in 3 different forms including slope intercept, point-slope, and standard depending on the information we have. We have a point (8,1) and a slope from the equation y=-23x+5. We will chose point-slope since we have a point and slope.

Point slope: $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$m\neq -23$ in our new equation because it us perpendicular to it. This means we will need to change it into its negative reciprocal which is $m=\frac{1}{23}$ .

We will substitute $m=\frac{1}{23}$ and $x_1=8\\y_1=1$ .

$y-1=\frac{1}{23} (x-8)$ .

This is the equation of the line perpendicular to y=-23x+5 that crosses through (8,1).
