Point D is 8 units away from the origin along the x-axis, and is 6 units away along the y-axis. Which of the following could be the coordinates of Point D

The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by:

Now we know that point D, which we can write as (x, y), is at a distance of 8 units from the origin.

Where the origin is written as (0, 0)

We also know that point D is 6 units away along the y-axis.

Then point D could be:

(x, 6)

or

(x, -6)

Now, let's find the x-value for each case, we need to solve:

notice that because we have an even power, we will get the same value of x, regardless of which y value we choose.

So we have two possible values of x.

x = 5.29

and

x = -5.29

Then the points that are at a distance of 8 units from the origin, and that are 6 units away along the y-axis are:

(5.29, 6)

(5.29, -6)

(-5.29, 6)

(-5.29, -6)

(- 1, 0 )

step-by-step explanation:

an x- intercept is where the function crosses the x- axis.

to find the x- intercept/s look for the value of x when f(x) = 0

from the given table there are 3 values of x where f(x) = 0

when x = - 1, x = 2, x = 3

the one that is listed is (- 1, 0 )
