Joseph is going to pay full price for the higher priced book so we start with 15 dollars.  Then he pays 50% of the second book which is 10 dollars, so we find 50% of 10 and then add it to 15...

15 + 50% x 10 =
15 + .5 x 10 =
15 + 5 = 20

He pays a total of $20

Answer:

Alicia

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions

<u>Alicia</u>

Distance: 5 1/2 = 11/2 = 5.5 miles

Time: 1 2/5 = 7/5 = 1.4 hours

<u>Carlos</u>

Distance: 8 1/8 = 65/8 = 8.125 miles

Time: 2 1/2 = 5/2 = 2.5 hours

<u>Henry</u>

Distance: 3 2/3 = 11/3 = 3.6 reoccuring miles

Time: 1 1/10 = 11/10 = 1.1 hours

<u>Zoe</u>

Distance: 4 2/3 = 14/3 = 4.6 reoccuring miles

Time: 1 3/10 = 13/10 = 1.3 hours

After that, divide the distance by the time

Alicia = 5.5 / 1.4 = 3.93 ( 3 s.f )

Carlos = 8.125 / 2.5 = 3.25

Henry = 3.6 re / 1.1 = 3.3 reoccuring

Zoe = 4.6 / 1.3 = 3.54 ( 3 s.f )

Looking at these answers, we determine which rate is the greatest

Alicia = 3.93

Carlos = 3.25

Henry = 3.3 re

Zoe = 3.54

Alicia hiked the highest rate.

What is the distance between point A and point B to the nearest tenth?
drek231 [11]
The answer is C. If you use the pythagorean theorem,a^2+b^2=c^2, and connect the two points together at a right angle and pug in the lengths of the two lines to the equation then the answer should be C.

Hi Vance :)

a=leg unknow
b=leg
c=hypotenuse

a²+b²=c²
a²=c²-b²
a²=145² - 144²
a²=21,025 - 20,736
a²=289
a=√289
a=17

unknow leg = 17 units
