30 points! answer asap ! will account and all the coordinates of the vertices of a polygon are (−2,−2), (3,−3), (4,−6), (1,−6), and (−2,−4). what is the perimeter of the polygon to the nearest tenth of a unit? 15.3 units 16.9 units 17.5 units 17.9 units

  16.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Sometimes the easiest way to work these problems is to get a little help from technology. The GeoGebra program/app can tell you the length of a "polyline", but it takes an extra segment to complete the perimeter. It shows the perimeter to be ...

  14.87 + 2 = 16.87 ≈ 16.9 . . . units

_____

The distance formula can be used to find the lengths of individual segments. It tells you ...

  d = √((Δx)² +(Δy)²)

where Δx and Δy are the differences between x- and y-coordinates of the segment end points.

If the segments are labeled A, B, C, D, E in order, the distances are ...

  AB = √(5²+1²) = √26 ≈ 5.099

  BC = √(1²+3²) = √10 ≈ 3.162

  CD = Δx = 3

  DE = √(3²+2²) = √13 ≈ 3.606

  EA = Δy = 2

Then the perimeter is ...

  P = AB +BC +CD +DE +EA = 5.099 +3.162 +3 +3.606 +2 = 16.867

  P ≈ 16.9

look at the picture.

y-intercept for the function on a picture is 4 → point (0, 4).

y-intercept for the function

is for x = 0. substitute:

y-intercept is 8 → point (0, 8).
