Rico wants to find the distance between the points (-2,-3) and (2,-5) his work is shown.
|-3| + |-5| = 3+5 = 8
the distance is 8 units
is Riko correct explain why or why not?

No, Riko is not correct. The points do not have the same x-coordinates. If you connect the points, they do not form a horizontal or vertical line, so you cannot count spaces or use absolute value to find the distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Its the sample response answer on edg 2020! :)

circle area = pi * radius^2

if diameter = 10 then radius = 5

circle area = pi * 5^2

circle area = pi * 25

circle area = 78.5398163397 square units

step-by-step explanation:

the simplified form is

step-by-step explanation:

we want to simplify the expression,

let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,

we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,

we factor to obtain,

we cancel the common factors to get,

we simplify to get,

the correct answer is b
