Answer: B. 25.2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The kite consists of 4 right angle triangles. The two smaller right angles are equal. Also, the two bigger right angles are equal.
To determine the hypotenuse of each triangle, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
Considering the smaller triangle,
Hypotenuse² = 4² + 3² = 16 + 9 = 25
Hypotenuse = √25 = 5
Considering the smaller triangle,
Hypotenuse² = 7² + 3² = 49 + 9 = 58
Hypotenuse = √58 = 7.616
The perimeter of the kite is the sum of the length of each side. Therefore,
Perimeter = 5 + 5 + 7.616 + 7.616 = 25.2 units to the nearest tenth
Complete Question
Max buys six donuts and a 300ml carton of juice for $3.50,susie buys four donuts and two 300ml carton of juice for $3.00,ben buys eight donuts and five 300ml carton of juice for $6.50 How much is one donut? How much is one carton of drink
Answer:
The cost of
1 donut = x = $0.50
300ml carton of juice = y = $0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of
1 donut = x
300ml carton of juice = y
Max buys six donuts and a 300ml carton of juice for $3.50
6x + y = 3.50.....Equation 1
y = 3.50 - 6x
Susie buys four donuts and two 300ml carton of juice for $3.00
4x + 2y = 3...... Equation 2
Ben buys eight donuts and one 300ml carton of juice for $6.50
8x + 5y = 6.50......Equation 3
We substitute 3.50 - 6x for y in Equation 2
4x + 2y = 3...... Equation 2
4x + 2(3.50 - 6x) = 3
4x + 7 - 12x = 3
Collect like terms
4x - 12x = 3 - 7
-8x = -4
x = -4/-8
x = $0.50
Solving for y
y = 3.50 - 6x
y = 3.50 - 6(0.50)
y = 3.50 - 3.00
y = $0.50
Therefore:
The cost of
1 donut = x = $0.50
300ml carton of juice = y = $0.50
