help??

OpenStudy (rz172):

Is it 4? @phi

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Distance = Square Root ( (X difference)^2 + (Y difference)^2 ) Distance = Square Root ( (6 --1)^2 + (-5 --4)^2) Distance = Square Root ( (7^2 + -1^2)) Distance = Square Root ( 49 +1) Distance = square root (50)

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Rz172 - do you agree?

OpenStudy (rz172):

I guess so, but the square root of that is 7.07? So the answer is 7?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

No - rounded to the nearest tenth is 7.1

OpenStudy (rz172):

So the answer then is 7.1?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Yes 7.1

OpenStudy (rz172):

Can you help me with this one also?

OpenStudy (rz172):

Is it 1.5,1?

OpenStudy (rz172):

because 10+(-6)= 3. 3/2 = 1.5?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Distance = Square Root ( (X difference)^2 + (Y difference)^2 )) Distance = Square Root ( ( 10 --6)^2 + (-1 -3)^2)) Distance = Square Root (16)^2 + (-4)^2 Distance = Square Root (256 + 16) Distance = Square Root (272) 16.4924225025

OpenStudy (rz172):

This is finding the midpoint.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Ooops sorry

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Midpoint = ((X1 + X2) /2) , ((Y1+Y) /2) Midpoint = (10 +(-6)) /2, ((-1 +(-3))/2 Midpoint = (4/2), (-4/2) Midpoint = 2, -2

OpenStudy (rz172):

It's a positive 3 not negative?

OpenStudy (rz172):

So it's. 2,1. :D

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

CORRECTION Midpoint = (10 +(-6)) /2, ((-1 +3)/2 Midpoint = (4/2), (2/2) Midpoint = 2, 1

OpenStudy (rz172):

Could you also help me with this and 2 more?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Yes, you are right , I caught it just a little before you posted

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Distance = Square Root ( (X difference)^2 + (Y difference)^2 ) Distance = Square Root ( (8 --9)^2 + (-3 --6)^2 Distance = Square Root (17^2) + 3^2 Distance = Square Root 289 + 9 Distance = Square Root 289 Distance = 17

OpenStudy (rz172):

It's 17.26 Which means its 17.3?

OpenStudy (rz172):

How about this one?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

(10, -1) (-6, 3) Distance = Square Root ( (X difference)^2 + (Y difference)^2 ) Distance = Square Root ( 10 --6)^2 + (-1 --3)^2 Distance = Square Root 16^2 +1^2 Distance = Square Root (257)

OpenStudy (rz172):

is it 16.03? which means the answer is 16?

OpenStudy (rz172):

wait, and 3 is positive not negative?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

CORRECTION Distance = Square Root ( 10 --6)^2 + (-1 -3)^2 Distance = Square Root 16^2 +4^2 Distance = Square Root (272)

OpenStudy (rz172):

So 16.49 which means it's 16.5?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Yes, I messed up with the darned negatives ... again!!!!

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Yes, 16.5

OpenStudy (rz172):

1 more

OpenStudy (rz172):

It's midpoint.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

(1, 9) (7, -7) Midpoint = ((X1 + X2) /2) , ((Y1+Y2) /2) Midpoint = (1 + 7)/2 , (9 -7)/2 Midpoint = 4, 1
