The problem asked you to calculate the slope of the dilated polygon which is dilated by a scale factor of 3. So, the slope of BC is 5/2 or -5/-2 and the dilated polygon has a the same slope of the original polygon.
Hope this helps :)
Let the cost of a chicken be x and the cost of a duck, y, then
50x + 30y = 550 . . . (1)
44x + 36y = 532 . . . (2)
(1) x 6 ⇒ 300x + 180y = 3,300 . . . (3)
(2) x 5 ⇒ 220x + 180y = 2,660 . . . (4)
(3) - (4) ⇒ 80x = 640
⇒ x = 640 / 80 = 8
From (1): 50(8) + 30y = 550
⇒ 30y = 550 - 400 = 150
⇒ y = 150 / 30 = 5
Therefore, the price of a chicken is $8 and the price of a duck is $5.
Answer:
44.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed = distance / time
speed from distance a to b = 50 = 10 / time
time = 10/50 = 12 minutes
Speed from a to c = 62 = distance / 30 minutes
distance = 62 x 0.5 = 31 m
diatance from b to c = 31 - 10 = 21
time = 30 - 12 = 28 minutes
speed = 21 / 28 minutes
31 / 0.47
LA = perimeter of base x height
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the base
4^2 + 6^2 = 52
Sq root of 52 is 7.2111...
4+6+7.2 = 17.2
17.2 x 8
137.6 is your answer
