What is the length of the line segment that has endpoints at (-5,7) and (7,2) A 13
B 10.9
C 5.4
D 15

A

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt of (x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2

sqrt of (7 - -5)^2 + (2 - 7)^2

sqrt of (12)^2 + (-5)^2

sqrt of (144 + 25)

sqrt of (169)

13

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.

1,407.5 hours

step-by-step explanation:

we first convert all the time to hours and then sum them up.

there are 24 hours in 1 day, in 58 days, there are 24 x 58 = 1,392 hours.

there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, thus, 30 minutes will be equivalent to 30 / 60 = 0.5 hours.

therefore, the number of hours it will take mercury to complete a full rotation is 1,392 + 15 + 0.5 = 1,407.5 hours
