Answer:

$D=\sqrt{10}\approx 3.16$ units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the distance between $(-6,8)$ and $(-3,9)$ .

We will use distance formula to solve our given problem. $D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Let point $(-6,8)=(x_1,y_1)$ and $(-3,9)=(x_2,y_2)$ .

$D=\sqrt{(-3-(-6))^2+(9-8)^2}$

$D=\sqrt{(-3+6)^2+(1)^2}$

$D=\sqrt{(3)^2+(1)^2}$

$D=\sqrt{9+1}$

$D=\sqrt{10}$

$D\approx 3.16$

Therefore, the distance between our given points is $D=\sqrt{10}\approx 3.16$ units.

Which polynomial function could be represented by the graph below?

Svetllana [295]

Note that

1.

$f(x)=x^3+x^2-6x=x(x^2+x-6)=x(x-2)(x+3)$

The x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2. The graph should be increasing - decreasing - increasing.

2.

$f(x)=x^3-x^2-6x=x(x^2-x-6)=x(x+2)(x-3)$

The x-intercepts are at points x=-2, x=0, x=3. The graph should be increasing - decreasing - increasing.

3.

$f(x)=-2x^3-2x^2+12x=-2x(x^2+x-6)=-2x(x-2)(x+3)$

The x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2. The graph should be decreasing - increasing - decreasing.

4.

$f(x)=-2x^3+x^2+12x=-2x(x^2-x-6)=-2x(x+2)(x-3)$

The x-intercepts are at points x=-2, x=0, x=3. The graph should be decreasing - increasing - decreasing.

From the diagram you can see that x-intercepts are at points x=-3, x=0, x=2 and the graph is decreasing-increasing-decreasing.

Answer:

The slope of diagonal PS is -1.

The slope of diagonal QR is 1.

The midpoint of PS is (2, 2).

The midpoint of QR is (2, 2).

Two sides of an obtuse triangle measure 9 inches and 14 inches. The length of longest side is unknown. What is the smallest poss

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

An obtuse triangle is the triangle in which one of the side is the longest. It contains an obtuse angle and the longest side is the side that is opposite to the vertex of the obtuse angle.

Let the three sides of the obtuse triangle be a, b and c respectively with c as the longest side. Let a = 9 inches and b = 14 inches.

Now we know that for an obtuse triangle,

$c^2 > a^2 +b^2$

$c^2 > (9)^2 +(14)^2$

$c^2 > 81 +196$

$c^2 > 277$

c > 16.64

Therefore the smallest possible whole number is 17 inches.

Kira looked through online census information to determine the average number of people living in the homes in her city. What is

Goshia [24]

First we need to identify if the data is qualitative or quantitative.

The data is average number of people living in the homes.

Qualitative data as its name indicates is an attribute or characteristic. It can not be measured e.g color. Quantitative data is such a data which can be counted or measured.

Since the average number of people can be counted and measured, the data is Quantitative.

In an observational study the individuals are observed. In the given case, Kira did not observed the individuals to gather the data, rather she used an Online resource to gather the data.

Therefore, the correct answer will be:
Kira used published data that is quantitative.
