Using proportions, considering the cost of the taxi per mile, it is found that Gary traveled 9.375 miles, not including the first.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, the company charges 2.95 for the first mile and $0.3 per each 1/8 mile next = $2.4 per mile. After the first mile, he was charged a total of $25.45 - $2.95 = $22.5. Hence the number of miles is given by:

22.5/2.4 = 9.375.

In the above bridge, line segment BD is the perpendicular bisector of line segment AC. For the bridge to be safe, Triangle ABD i
klasskru [66]

Answer: we can get the sequence of reasons with help of below explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here It is given that, line segment BD is the perpendicular bisector of line segment AC. ( shown in below diagram)

By joining points B with A and B with C ( Construction)

We get two triangles ABD and CBD.

We have to prove that : Δ ABD ≅ Δ CBD

      Statement                                                  Reason

1. AD ≅ DC                                    1. By the property of segment bisector

2. ∠BDA ≅ ∠ BDC                        2. Right angles

3. BD ≅ BD                                   3. Reflexive

4.  Δ ABD ≅ Δ CBD                      4. By SAS postulate of congruence

What value has a z-score of -0.67, if the mean is 18 and the standard deviation is 1.68?
uranmaximum [27]
The data point is 1.6 standard deviations above the mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-score
It is the number of standard deviations from the mean that a data point is. It's a measure of how many standard deviations below or above the population mean a raw score is.
A Z-score is also known as a standard score and it can be placed on a normal distribution curve.
As in this case the Z-score is +1.6, so it means the data point is 1.6 standard deviations above the mean. Hope this helps I am kinda knew to this so I hope I helped you

Complete the point-slope equation of the line through ( − 5 , 4 ) (−5,4)left parenthesis, minus, 5, comma, 4, right parenthesis
Tanzania [10]

The point slope form of equation through given points is:

y-6=\frac{1}{3}(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are:

(x1,y1) = (-5,4)

(x2,y2) = ((1,6)

First of all we have to find the slope of line

So,

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\=\frac{6-4}{1+5}\\=\frac{2}{6}\\=\frac{1}{3}

Point-slope form is given by:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Putting m=1/3

y-y_1=\frac{1}{3}(x-x_1)

Putting (1,6) in the equation

y-6=\frac{1}{3}(x-1)

The point slope form of equation through given points is:

y-6=\frac{1}{3}(x-1)
