The difference between jump 1 and jump 2 is 32.4 and the difference between jump 2 and jump 3 is 21.6, which is 2/3 of the first difference. So the difference between jump 3 and jump 4 should be 14.4 and the difference between jump 4 and 5 should be 9.6.  That makes jump 4 28.8 ft and jump 5 19.2 ft.  So we want only the total amount the jumper "falls" so that is 97.2+64.8+43.2+28.8+19.2=253.2.

There were 254 tickets purchased for a major league baseball game. The lower box tickets cost ​$12.50 and the upper box tickets
Jet001 [13]
This can be solved by creating a system of equations.
x + y = 254
12.5x + 10y = 2745
We can then use substitution to solve the system.
x = 254 - y
12.5(254-y) + 10y = 2745
3175 - 12.5y + 10y = 2745
-2.5y = -430
y = 172
Finally, we can use that answer to solve for x.
x + 172 = 254
x = 82

So, there were 82 of the lower box tickets sold and 172 of the upper box tickets sold.

Line CD is the perpendicular bisector of segment AB. The lines intersect at point E. Which of these statements is true?
fredd [130]

Answer:

C. E is the same distance from A and B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line CD is a perpendicular that divides segment AB into two equal parts as it intersects segment AB at point E.

This divides AB into AE and EB.

Point E is the middle of A and B. Therefore, E will be the same distance from A and from B.

That is, AE = EB.

Therefore, the statement that is true is: C. E is the same distance from A and B.

I really hate summer school help plz

This is a same side interior angle, which means that the two angles, when added, will equal 180°

y + 72 = 180

Isolate the y, subtract 72 from both sides

y + 72 (-72) = 180 (-72)

y = 180 - 72

y = 108

A) 108°, is your answer


hope this helps
