Answer:

The distance is √ 85 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the exact value, all we will simply do is to use the distance formula to solve;

D =√ (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

From the question given;

The points given are (−1, 4) and (6, −2)

so; x₁ = -1 y₁ = 4 x₂ = 6 y₂ = -2

We can now proceed to substitute the formula into the equation

D = √ (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

=√ (6 - -1)² + (-2 - 4)²

=√ (6+ 1)² + (-2 - 4)²

=√ (7)² + (-6)²

=√ 49 + 36

=√ 85

The distance is √ 85 units

Find all constants a such that the vectors (a, 4) and (2, 5) are parallel.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

$\displaystyle a = \frac{8}{5}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Two vectors $(x_1,\, y_1)$ and $(x_2,\, y_2)$ are parallel to one another if and only if the ratio between their corresponding components are equal:

$\displaystyle \frac{x_1}{x_2} = \frac{y_1}{y_2}$ .

Equivalently:

$\displaystyle \frac{x_1}{y_1} = \frac{x_2}{y_2}$ .

For the two vectors in this equation to be parallel to one another:

$\displaystyle \frac{a}{4} = \frac{2}{5}$ .

Solve for $a$ :

$\displaystyle a = \frac{8}{5}$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{8}{5}$ would be the only valid value of $a$ ; no other value would satisfy the $\displaystyle \frac{x_1}{y_1} = \frac{x_2}{y_2}$ equation.
