The map shows the location of the airport and a warehouse in a city. Though not displayed on the map, there is also a factory 104 miles due north of the warehouse.

Coordinate grid shown from negative 78 to positive 78 on x axis at intervals of 13 and negative 78 to positive 78 on y axis at intervals of 13. A straight line is shown between the points labeled Airport and Warehouse. Airport is the ordered pair negative 39, 52, and Warehouse is the ordered pair 39 and negative 52. A signage showing directions North, South, East, and West is shown in the empty quadrant on the graph.

A truck traveled from the warehouse to the airport and then to the factory. What is the total number of miles the truck traveled?

130
169
201
208

Answers

step 1

find the coordinates of the factory

the factory is 104 miles due north of the warehouse

the coordinates of the warehouse are (39,-52)

coordinates of the factory------> (39,-52+104)------> (39,52)

step 2

find the distance warehouse to airport

let

A coordinates of warehouse-------> A( 39,-52)

B coordinates of airport---------> B(-39,52)

C coordinates of factory-------> C(39,52)

distance AB=√[(52+52)²+(-39-39)²]------> distance AB=130 miles

step 3

find the distance airport to factory

B(-39,52)

C(39,52)

distance BC=√[(52-52)²+(39+39)²]-----> distance BC=39 miles

the total number of miles=distance AB+distance BC---> 130+39

the total number of miles=169 miles

Thus the answer is 169

The answer is 169 trust

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is the x-value so you replace all the x's in f(x)=-x+5 with -3,3, and 9

f(-3)=2/3(-3)+5

= 3

f(3)=2/3(3)+5

At a grocery store, you can buy a 20-ounce of peanuts for $3.59, or you can buy a one-pound (16 ounces) package for $2.59. Why is the one-pound package the better deal? Explain your answer by talking about unit rates.

Answers

Answer- The one pound package is a better deal because it costs 32 cents per ounce rather than the 20 oz, which charged 45 cents per oz.

Explanation- let’s convert all units to ONE OUNCE. 3.59/20(oz)= 0.45, do 45 cents per ounce for the first. For the second, we know that one pound is 8 oz so divide 2.59 by 8 and you get 32 cents per oz. We know that if we are getting 8 oz for 32 cents per ounce, it is the better deal rather than 45 cents per oz.

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation: when you plug 3 into both equations you get 5

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

to make this simple, plug the x-coordinate of each answer choice into x in each of the equations and plug the y-coordinate of each answer choice into y in each of the equations. if BOTH equations come out to be true, this is the solution.

ex:

y=3x-4

y=x+2

plug in (3,5)

5=3(3)-4 is correct

5=3+2 is correct

so, (3,5) is the solution.

[tex]\huge\boxed{C}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

A) [tex]m\angle11, m\angle7[/tex]

B) [tex]m\angle1, m\angle3[/tex]

C) [tex]m\angle6, m\angle2[/tex]

D) [tex]m\angle3, m\angle6[/tex]

We need to find which pairs are not equal.

We know that lines a and b are parallel. This means that line c is a transversal, and same with line d.

Let's start with A).

Are [tex]m\angle11[/tex] and [tex]m\angle7[/tex] equal?

Yes. This is true because when c is a transversal, angles 11 and 7 are alternate interior angles, meaning they're congruent, or equal. This is not the correct nswer choice as these angles are equal.

Are [tex]m\angle1[/tex] and [tex]m\angle3[/tex] equal?

Yes. When d is a transversal, angles 1 and 3 are called corresponding angles, which are always equal. Corresponding angles have 1 angle in between them.

Are [tex]m\angle6[/tex] and [tex]m\angle2[/tex] equal?

No. There is no reason that we can use to prove that [tex]m\angle6[/tex] and [tex]m\angle2[/tex] are equal. This means that C is the correct answer.

Are [tex]m\angle3[/tex] and [tex]m\angle6[/tex] equal?

Yes. [tex]m\angle3[/tex] and [tex]m\angle6[/tex]  are called vertical angles. They share one vertice, or angle. Vertical angles are always congruent.

A bottle of water 2/3 full. You drink 3/4 of the water. Use a model to find the portion of the bottle of water that you drink .
You drink _____ of the bottle?

Answers

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: You would multiply 2/3 by 3/4.

(Hint: if it is ____ of ____, you would most likely multiply)

Step 2: 2×3/3×4

Step 3: 2×3=6

Step 4: 3×4=12

Step 5: 6/12

Step 6: Simplify 6/12 = 3/6 = 1/2

Hope this helps :)

You drink half of the water in the bottle is 2/3 full.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions. The operator that performs the arithmetic operation is called the arithmetic operator.

- Subtraction operation: Subtracts the right-hand operand from the left-hand operand.

for example 4 -2 = 2

* Multiplication operation: Multiplies values on either side of the operator

For example 4*2 = 8

Given the following data;

A bottle of water is 2/3 full. You drink 3/4 of the water.

To determine the portion of the bottle of water that you drink.

To do this we would multiply 2/3 of a bottle of water by 3/4.

⇒ 2/3 × 3/4

⇒ 6/12

⇒ 1/2

Thus, you drink half of the water in the bottle is 2/3 full.
