Each unit on the grid stands for one miles determine two ways to calculate the distance from josie's house to annies

Novosadov [1.4K]

I encountered this problem before but it had an accompanying image and list of answer choices.

I'll attach the image and include the list of options.

Each unit on the grid stands for one mile. Determine two ways to calculate the distance from Josie's house to Annie's house.
A) Distance Formula and Slope Formula
B) Midpoint Formula and Slope Formula
C) Distance Formula and Midpoint Formula
D) Distance Formula and Pythagorean Theorem

My answer is: D.) Distance formula and Pythagorean Theorem.

When looking at the image, I can visualize a right triangle. I'll simply get the measure of the long and short legs and solve for the hypotenuse.
Since the distance formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem, it can be used to determine the distance from Josie's house to Annie's house.

Which best completes the following sentence?

zlopas [31]

When two triangles are congruent they will have exactly the same three sides and exactly the same three angles. The equal sides and angles may not be in the same position (if there is a turn or a flip), but they are there.

There is a mound of g pounds of gravel in a quarry. Throughout the day, 300 pounds of gravel are added to the mound. Two orders

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

$g+300-700-700=1500, g=2600$

Step-by-step explanation:

At the start of the day there are g pounds of gravel in the quarry.

Then it says that there were 300 pounds added to the mound, so at this point the pounds of gravel in the mound are now g+300.

Then two orders of 700 pounds are sold and removed from the mound. That means they removed 700 pounds from the mound 2 times. Therefore at this point the pounds of gravel in the mound are now g+300-700-700.

Then it says that at this point, the amount of pounds in the mound are 1500. Hence we get

$g+300-700-700=1500$

To solve for g we just add 700 two times to both sides of the equation, and subtract 300 from both sides of the equation, getting:

$g+300-700-700+700+700-300=1500+700+700-300$

And so $g=2600$
