Dory lives 2.5 miles from school. Jim lives 3.2 kilometers from school. Ely lives 2300 meters from school, and Chris lives 3000

yards from school. Which lists the students from closest to farthest from school? (1 mi = 1.61 km; 1 m = 1.09 yd;1 km = 1000 m)

Answer: Ely, Chris, Jim, Dory

Step-by-step explanation:

The distances must be expressed in the same uni.

Let's express the distance in meters.

We know that Dory lives 2.5 miles from school.

Since:

1\ mi = 1.61\ km

The distance  in kilometers is:

(2.5\ mi)(\frac{1.61\ km}{1\ mi})=4.025\ km

Since 1\ km = 1,000\ m

The distance in meters is:

(4.025\ km)(\frac{1,000\ m}{1\ km})=4,025\ m

 Jim lives 3.2 kilometers from school. The distance in meters is:

(3.2\ km)(\frac{1,000\ m}{1\ km})=3,200\ m

Chris lives 3,000 yards from school.

Since:

1\ m = 1.09\ yd

The distance in meters is:

(3,000\ yd)(\frac{1\ m}{1.09\ yd})=2,752.29\ m

Therefore, the order of the students from closest to farthest from school is:

Ely, Chris, Jim, Dory

Please Identify the congruent triangles in the figure.
Tpy6a [65]

The missing steps are each right angles and \angle R \cong \angle O.

Solution:

Step 1: Given data:

\overline {P Q} \cong \overline{M N}

\overline{Q R} \cong \overline{N O}

\overline{P R} \cong \overline{M O}

Step 2: In the two polygons,

\angle Q =90^\circ and \angle N =90^\circ

\angle Q \cong \angle N (Each right angle)

Step 3: Given

\angle P \cong \angle M

Step 4: By third angle theorem,

If two angles in one triangle are congruent to the two angles in the other triangle, then the third angles in the triangles also congruent.

\angle R \cong \angle O

Step 5: By the definition of congruent polygons,

If two same shape polygons have all the angles are congruent and all the corresponding sides are congruent then the polygons are congruent.

Hence \Delta P Q R \cong \Delta M N O.

Therefore the missing steps are each right angles and \angle R \cong \angle O.

7 + 2y = 8x 3x - 2y = 0 Solve the system of equations by substitution. (70/3, 140/9) (7/5, 21/10) no solution coincident
Wittaler [7]
So we have the system of equations:
7+2y=8x equation (1)
3x-2y=0 equation (2)

To use substitution, we are going to solve for one variable in one of our equations, and then we are going to replace that value in the other equation:
Solving for x in equation (2):
3x-2y=0
3x=2y
x= \frac{2}{3}y equation (3)

Replacing equation (3) in equation (1):
7+2y=8x
7+2y=8( \frac{2}{3} y)
7+2y= \frac{16}{3} y
7= \frac{10}{3} y
y= \frac{7}{ \frac{10}{3} }
y= \frac{21}{10} equation (4)

Replacing equation (4) in equation (3):
x= \frac{2}{3}y
x=( \frac{2}{3} )( \frac{21}{10} )
x= \frac{7}{5}

We can conclude that the solution of our system of equations is <span>(7/5, 21/10)</span>

Determine whether the sides given would form an acute, obtuse, or right triangle. 7, 7, 13
Brut [27]
Let a = 7 , b  = 7, and c = 13. c is always the biggest number.

Acute Triangle is when c^2 \ \textless \  a^2 + b^2

Right Triangle is when c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Obtuse Triangle is when c^2 \ \textgreater \  a^2 + b^2

Vivian has a 550 page book on folk tales . If she reads 9 pages everyday before falling asleep . how many days will it take her
zepelin [54]

Answer:

62 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that she reads 9 pages everyday before falling asleep. Then, on day one, she would read 9m pages.

On day 2, she would read another 9 pages, making 18 pages after 2 days. If she will finish the book in x days then

x = 550/9

=61 1/9 days

Converting the 1/9 into a day then, she will finish the book in 62 days, reading just a page on the 62nd day.
