Question

can anyone help me with this question?

Answer 1

Mr. Grayson owns a wood company that sells trees. Mr. Grayson gets a request from a customer to buy a palm tree of a specific height. Mr. Grayson’s tree nursery is very large and is organized by a coordinate plane map system. He finds a palm tree that he thinks might meet the customer’s specifications. The tree is located at coordinates (35, 28). He calls his assistant to come over to help him determine the height of the tree. He asks his assistant where she’s located. His assistant says she is located at (70, 15). Each unit on the coordinate grid represents 1 ft. How far is Mr. Grayson’s assistant from the tree? Round to the nearest tenth. Show your work.

Answer 10

Distance formula

\(\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\)

Answer 11

ok

Answer 12

plug in the values

Answer 13

tghe trees are irrelevant

this is sim[plt yhe distance between two points in the XY plane

use the equation given above by @Mehek14

Answer 14

so (70^2-15^1)^2+(35^2-28^1)^2 ?

imqwerty am i right?

Answer 21

no you made a lil mistake

Answer 22

hmm

Answer 23

see if we got the coordinates of 2 points as-> \((x_1,~y_1)\) and \((x_2,~y_2)\)
then the distance between then is given by this formula->

\(distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\)

now your points are->(35, 28) and (70, 15)

now see what is \(x_1,~x_2,~y_1,~y_1\) and then substitute appropriate values and solve

Answer 24

so add the points into the distance equasion?

Answer 25

write the equation

Answer 26

s

Answer 27

i mean like what will be the equation when you substitute the values of \(x_1,~y_1,x_2,y_2\)

Answer 28

i really dont know, i just started this type of math, sorry im dumb :(

Answer 29

its alright dude
its a bit confusing

here are corresponding values

now try to put them in equation
