Answer:

The answer to your question is 7.8 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

H (4,3)

G (10, 8)

Process

1.- Use the distance between to points formula to find the distance

dHG = $\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}$

x1 = 4 y1 = 3

x2 = 10 y2 = 8

2.- Substitution

dHG = $\sqrt{(10 - 4)^{2} + (8 - 3)^{2}}$

3.- Simplification

dHG = $\sqrt{6^{2} + 5^{2}}$

dHG = $\sqrt{36 + 25}$

dHG = $\sqrt{61}$

4.- Result

dHG = 7.8 mi

The figure below shows a line graph and two shaded triangles that are similar:Which statement about the slope of the line is tru

zzz [600]

Here is something to keep in mind.
when there is a downward slope, the slope will ALWAYS have a negative slope. even if it is above the x-axis. negative slopes will tend to go from positive y-axis to negative y-axis
so personally would have to go with -4
because the x-axis is by 4 each time. and this slope is going downward.

your answer will be D

Point G is on segment FH such that it partitions segment FH into a ratio of 2:3.Point F is located at (5, 7) and point H is loca

Margarita [4]

Answer:

G = (9.4, 9,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is applied in the x-distance and the y-distance. The ratio is 2:3 so you have to divide the distances by 5 and 2/5 correspond to FG and 3/5 to GH

x-distance:

x2 - x1 = 16 - 5 = 11

11/5 = 2.2

y-distance:

y2 - y1 = 13 - 7 = 6

6/5 = 1.2

Point G = Point F + (2.2*2, 1.2*2)

Point G = (5, 7) + (4.4, 2.4)

= (9.4, 9.4)
