Answer:
Using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,200 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 30 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,200 / 30
= 40 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.00 so the total cost is:
= 40 * 3
= $120
Without using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,211 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 29 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,211 / 29
= 41.76 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.40 so the total cost is:
= 41.76 * 3.40
= $141.98
<em>Using the estimate provides a lower cost of gasoline for the trip. </em>
Answer:
I think it is C
Step-by-step explanation:
Forgive me if I am wrong the reason I think so is I did one like this last week. Sorry if it is wrong trying to remember.
I think it’s d because it’s like similar
Answer:
a. x = 14
b. Perimeter = 77
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Based on the Triangle Proportionality Theorem:



Cross multiply


Add 2 to both sides


Divide both sides by 2
x = 14
b. Perimeter of ∆QRS = RQ + QS + RS = (2x - 2) + 13 + 17 + (21 - 7) + 7
Plug in the value of x
= (2(14) - 2) + 13 + 17 + 14 + 7
= 26 + 13 + 17 + 14 + 7
= 77
Answer:
-40

Step-by-step explanation:
-33+-7 you are adding two negatives
9+(-15) you are adding a negative to a positive which gets you closer to zero
5-(-46) you are subtracting a negative which is adding
