The campers in cabin C walk 3/5 of the way to fossil cave.how many miles did they walk

Answers

3. The distance between Fossil Cave and Cabin C is 9 miles. So, 3/5 times 9 miles= 5.4 miles. They walked 5.4 miles.4. The campers in Cabin D walked 1/6 of the way to Mammoth Mountain. The distance between the 2 places is 25 miles. 1/6*25 miles= is about 4.2 miles. They walked about 4.2 miles to Mammoth Mountain.

What is the perimeter of the triangle shown on the coordinate plane, to the nearest tenth of a unit?

Answers

Answer:

25.6 units

Step-by-step explanation: From the figure we can infer that our triangle has vertices A = (-5, 4), B = (1, 4), and C = (3, -4).

First thing we are doing is find the lengths of AB, BC, and AC using the distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2} +(y_2-y_1)^{2}}

where

(x_1,y_1) are the coordinates of the first point

(x_2,y_2) are the coordinates of the second point

- For AB:

d=\sqrt{[1-(-5)]^{2}+(4-4)^2}

d=\sqrt{(1+5)^{2}+(0)^2}

d=\sqrt{(6)^{2}}

d=6

- For BC:

d=\sqrt{(3-1)^{2} +(-4-4)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(2)^{2} +(-8)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{4+64}

d=\sqrt{68}

d=8.24

- For AC:

d=\sqrt{[3-(-5)]^{2} +(-4-4)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(3+5)^{2} +(-8)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(8)^{2} +64}

d=\sqrt{64+64}

d=\sqrt{128}

d=11.31

Next, now that we have our lengths, we can add them to find the perimeter of our triangle:

p=AB+BC+AC

p=6+8.24+11.31

p=25.55

p=25.6

We can conclude that the perimeter of the triangle shown in the figure is 25.6 units.

What are the three consecutive odd integers that equal 111? After that, answer this:Are there 3 consecutive odd integers that equal 1111?

Answers

odd integers are 1 more than even ones
even intergers are represetned as 2n where n is a whole number
odd=2n+1
consecutive odd integers are 2 apart from each other so therefor the numbers are 2n+1,2n+1+2, 2n+1+2+2 or 2n+1, 2n+3, 2n+5
so they add up to 111
2n+1+2n+3+2n+5=111
add like terms
6n+9=111
subtract 9 from both sides
6n=102
divide both sides by 6
n=17
numbers are
2n+1,2n+3,2n+5
subsitute
2(17)+1=34+1=35
therefor since the other sare 2 more
35,37,39 are the numbers


are there 3 that equal 1111? solve and see if it is true
2n+1+2n+3+2n+5=1111
add like terms
6n+9=1111
subtract 9 from both sides
6n=1102
divide both sides by 6
n=183.666666666666
n is not whole so the answer is NO

answer are 35,37,39 and NO
x- the number

x
x+2
x+4
======(+)
3x+6=111
3x=105
x=35

the numbers are 35 37 39

the second problem has the same logic

x
x+2
x+4
=====(+)
3x+6=1111
3x=1105
x=368, (3) it's not an integer number

1. Why is it useful to know the definition of rational expression? Explain through an example of your own.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational expressions are in the form of (p)/(q),q\neq0

Here from the definition it is very important to know that the denominator of a rational expression is never zero.

If the denominator is zero then it becomes undefined.

Let us take an example of a rational expression.

(x+4)/(x+2)

This is a rational expression and it is defined only when

x+2\neq0\n\n\Rightarrow x\neq-2

It means that the expression is defined for all real values of x except x =-2
