Answer 1

13.
`D = 18`

14.
`S = (x, y + 6)`

Explanation:

13.

Given

`M = (-8,2)`

`S = (10,2)`

Required

Determine the distance between M and S

Distance (D) is calculated using:

`D = √((x_2 - x_1)^2+(y_2 - y_1)^2)`

Where

`(x_1,y_1) = (-8,2)`

`(x_2,y_2) = (10,2)`

`D = √((x_2 - x_1)^2+(y_2 - y_1)^2)`

`D = √((10 - (-8))^2 + (2 - 2)^2)`

`D = √((10 +8)^2 + 0^2)`

`D = √(18^2 + 0)`

`D = √(18^2)`

`D = 18`

Hence, the distance between M and S is 18 units

14.

The coordinate of S and P are not given,

So, I'll just use (x,y) for P

i.e.

`P=(x,y)`

Required

Determine the coordinates of S

If S is 6 units above P, then the coordinates of S is

`S = (x, y + 6)`

i.e. we add the units to the y coordinate of P.
