Question 47310: I need a formula to calculate the length between to points on a graph-
Example:
Between (3,3) and (3,7) would be a length of four.
I need a reusable formula for a computer program and I can't remember the name of the one we used in high school (otherwise I would just find it on the internet)

Question 48215: When you graph a quadratic function and find the vertex is on the Y-axis, you know for sure that?
I think that we know for sure that the coefficient of the x term ("b") is zero; OR
The roots of the equation is the positive and negative of the same number (+p and -p).

Question 49841: I was using your site to teach my son algebra, and we noticed an incorrect answer that we wanted to notify you about.
"Checkley71" answered question #1743 by starting this way:
Problem to graph: 2x+4y=-8
Error made in solving equation was when he subtracted 2x from both sides, he got: 4y=-2x+8
"Checkley71" accidentally changed the (-8) to a (+8) when he subtracted 2x from both sides. The rest of the problem was wrong from that point forward. Please send me an e-mail when the problem is corrected so I can again review it with my son.
Thanks for a great site!
