well, Marcus and Ben are both 5 feet tall and a little bit more, Marcus is 19/24 more and Ben is 9/16 more, so the 5's in the fraction are the same, so which one is larger, 19/24 or 9/16?
we can simply put both fractions with the same denominator, by <u>multiplying one by the other's denominator</u>, so let's proceed,
Answer:
(5,6) , (5,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the required point be P(5,y).
Its distance from (2,2) is 5 units.
So, +
= 25.
So, +
= 25.
9 + = 25.
= 16
Two cases are possible for now
case 1 : y-2 = 4 .
y = 6
required point will be (5,6)
case 2 : y - 2 = -4.
y = -2.
required point will be (5,-2).
Two points are possible : (5,6) , (5,-2).
