12. P(–4, 3), Q(2, –5) (a) d ( P, Q ) = [2 – (– 4)]2 + (–5 – 3)2

= 62 + (–8)2 = 100 = 10

1. False. (−1, 3) lies in Quadrant II. 2. False. The expression should be

( x2 − x1 ) + ( y2 − y1 ) 2

.

3. True. The origin has coordinates (0, 0) . So, the distance from (0, 0) to (a, b ) is

d = (a − 0) 2 + (b − 0) 2 = a 2 + b 2 4. True. The midpoint has coordinates ⎛ a + 3a b + ( −3b ) ⎞ ⎛ 4a −2b ⎞ ⎜ 2 , ⎟ = ⎜⎝ 2 , 2 ⎟⎠ 2 ⎝ ⎠ = (2a, − b). 5. True. When x = 0, y = 2(0) + 4 = 4, so the y-intercept is 4. When y = 0, 0 = 2x + 4 ⇒ x = −2, so the x-intercept is −2. 6. Answers will vary.
