Since it is 1 out of 14, take 400 and divide it by 14 (400/14) which would give 28.57142857... . So round to the nearest whole number = 29. SO THE ANSWER IS “C, 29”

Four times a number added to 3 times a larger number is 31. Seven subtracted from the larger number is equal to twice the smalle
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Let x represent the smaller number and y represent the larger number

<u>For the first equation </u>

Four times a number added to 3 times a larger number is 31 is written as

4x + 3y = 31

Making y the subject we have

3y = - 4x + 31

Divide both sides by 3

That's

y =  -  \frac{4}{3} x +  \frac{31}{3}

<u>For the second equation</u>

Seven subtracted from the larger number is equal to twice the smaller number is written as

y - 7 = 2x

Making y the subject

We have

<h3>y = 2x + 7</h3>

Hope this helps you

Find the perimeter of the polygon. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Perimeter is 38.8 units and approximately 39 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Graph

To find: perimeter of the polygon

Solution:

Distance between points (x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2) is given by \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

As per the graph,

point P is (-2,11)

point Q is (-4,6)

point R is (2,0)

point S is (1,7)

point T is (8,7)

PQ=\sqrt{(-4+2)^2+(6-11)^2}=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{29}=5.4\,\,units\\QR=\sqrt{(2+4)^2+(0-6)^2}=\sqrt{(6)^2+(-6)^2}=\sqrt{72}=8.5\,\,units\\RS=\sqrt{(1-2)^2+(7-0)^2}=\sqrt{(-1)^2+(7)^2}=\sqrt{50}=7.1\,\,units\\ST=\sqrt{(8-1)^2+(7-7)^2}=\sqrt{(7)^2+(0)^2}=\sqrt{49}=7\,\,units\\PT=\sqrt{(8+2)^2+(7-11)^2}=\sqrt{(10)^2+(-4)^2}=\sqrt{116}=10.8\,\,units

Perimeter refers to sum of lengths of all the sides.

Perimeter = 5.4+8.5+7.1+7+10.8=38.8

Or approximately 39 units

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP! MUST BE CORRECT! MORE POINTS GIVEN!!!

These are the two rules for when a and b are positive numbers.
a + b = b + a
a - b ≠ b -a
a - b = -b + a

For example:

5.71 + 2.84 = 2.84 + 5.71
8.55 = 8.55

5.71 - 2.84 ≠ 2.84 - 5.71
2.87 ≠ -2.87

5.71 - 2.84 = -2.84 + 5.71
2.87 = 2.87



These are the rules for when a and b are negative numbers.
a + b = b + a
a - b = b + a

For example,

-6.2 + (-3.96) = -3.96 + (-6.2)
-6.2 - 3.96 = -3.96 - 6.2
-10.16 = -10.16

-6.2 - (3.96) = -3.96 + (-6.2)
-10.16 = -10.16



Also, if a is a positive number, while b is a negative number, we see these rules:
a + b = a - b
a - b = a + b

For example,

5.71 + (-6.2) = 5.71 - 6.2
-0.49 = -0.49

5.71 - (-6.2) = 5.71 + 6.2
11.91 = 11.91


Also, if a is a negative number while b is a positive number, then these rules will apply:
a + b = b - a
a - b = -b - a

For example,

-3.96 + 2.84 = 2.84 - 3.96
-1.12 = <span>-1.12
</span>
-3.96 - 2.84 = -2.84 - 3.96
-6.8 = -6.8


I hope this helps! :)
