Travis took a taxicab from his office to a meeting on the other side of town. The cab ride cost $8.50 which includes a $2.00 tip. In deciman form, how far is it from his office to the meeting?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: You do not have enough information to solve the problem:
The charge was $6.50 without the tip. You need to know the rate that the taxicab charges in order to solve this problem.

For example if the taxicab charged $1.30 per mile then the answer would be $6.50/$1.30 per mile = 5 miles

Which function in vertex form is equivalent to f(x) = x2 + 6x + 3?f(x) = (x + 3)2 + 3
f(x) = (x + 3)2 − 6
f(x) = (x + 6)2 + 3
f(x) = (x + 6)2 − 6

By completing the square, the second orderpolynomial in vertexform f(x) = (x + 3)² - 6 is equivalent to the polynomial in standardform f(x) = x² + 6 · x + 3. (Correct choice: B)

How to find the vertex form of the second order polynomial by algebraic means

In this question we must change the form of the second orderpolynomial from standardform into vertexform. A common method consists in completing the square, that is, to transform part of the polynomial into a perfect squaretrinomial. Now we proceed to find the vertexform of the expression:

1) x² + 6 · x + 3 Given

2) x² + 6 · x + 9 - 6 Modulative property/Existence of additive inverse/Definition of addition

3) (x + 3)² - 6 Associative property/Perfect square trinomial/Result

Solve the problem.If a lawn sprinkler sprays 15 feet in every direction, what is the area of the yard that gets watered?

Answers

The area of yard gets watered is 707.142 ft²

What is area?

The portion between any closed figure, and the extent of region of any plane is area.

Given that sprinkler sprays 15 feet in every direction

so it will form a circle with radius of 15ft

and area of circle is πr²

where r is radius of circle

value of π is 22/7

area = π x (15)²

area = 707.142 ft²

Hence area of sprinkled region is 707.142 ft²

What is the most precise term for quadrilateral ABCD with vertices A(3,1) , B(4,5) , C(7,5) , D(7,2) answer choices; A. KITE B. SQUARE C. RHOMBUS D. PARALLELOGRAM

Answers

The most precise term for the quadrilateral ABCD with the given vertices is; A: KITE

PROPERTIES OF QUADRILATERALS

Let us first check for the slope of the diagonals. If they intersect at right angles, then they could be square, rhombus or kite.

Slope of diagonal AC = (5 - 1)/(7 - 3) = 1

Slope of diagonal BD = (2 - 5)/(7 - 4) = -1

Thus, slope 1/slope 2 = 1/-1 = - 1

This means they intersect at a perpendicular point.

Let us know find the coordinates of their midpoints. If they are the same, then it could be a square or a rhombus. If they are different, then it is a kite.

Midpoint of AC = (7 + 3)/2 AND (5 + 1)/2 = (5, 3)

Midpoint of BD = (7 + 4)/2 AND (2 + 5)/2 = (5.5, 3.5)

They are not the same and as such this is a kite.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are the vertices of a quadrilateral.

WE have to find the name of the quadrilateral

WE have slope of AC = (5-1)/(7-3) = 1

and slope of BD = (2-5)/(7-4) = -1

Since m1m2 =-1 we get

the diagonals cut at right angles

This property is special property for square, rhombus and kite only.

Let us check if diagonals bisect each other

Mid point of AC = $((3+7)/(2) ,(1+5)/(2) =(5,3)$

Mid point of BD = $((4+7)/(2) ,(2+5)/(2) =\neq 5,3)$

Since diagonals do not bisect this is neither rhombus nor square.

Only possibility is kite
