2. A coordinate grid is used to make a map of the park. The location of the drinking fountain is (-4, 2) ; the location of the bench is (0, 2) ; and the location of the center of the slide is (0, 5). (a) What is the distance from the drinking fountain to the bench? What is the distance from the bench to the center of the slide? Explain your reasoning.
(b) What type of triangle is created by the three locations? Explain.

Use addition and subtraction to simplify the following polynomials. a. add polynomials: (3 – 4x + 8x^2) + (–6 + 2x – 5x^2) step 1: rewrite the polynomials without the parentheses. step 2: write the polynomial in descending order and use parentheses around like terms. step 3: add the like terms identified in step 2 to simplify the polynomial. b. subtract polynomials: (3x – 5 – 7x^2) – (–2 + 6x^2 – 5x) step 1: rewrite the polynomials without the parentheses. remember to multiply each term in the second parentheses by –1. show your work. step 2: write the polynomial in descending order and use parentheses around like terms. step 3: add the like terms identified in step 2 to simplify the polynomial.
