Answer:

$10

Step-by-step explanation:

The hardcover books are $12 each which would be $60 out of the $100. There are four more paperbacks meaning they would be $10 each and cost $40 total.

I hope this helped!!! :)

kelly subscribes to a service called mysongs for downloading music she pays a $7 fee each month to download an unlimited numbers
Nastasia [14]

subtract the fee from the total to get the amount actually spent on songs

23.80-7 = 16.80

 divide that amount by price per song to get number of songs downloaded

16.80 /0.20 = 84 songs

I'll do problem 1 to get you started.

The answer to problem 1 is <u>3400 miles</u>

============================================================

Explanation for problem 1:

We're asked to find the perimeter, which is the total distance around the exterior or outside. In other words, we need to add up the four side lengths of this quadrilateral.

We'll need the distance formula to find the lengths of the slanted sides AB and BC

----------------------------------------

Let's first find the length of segment AB

A = (x1,y1) = (0,0)

B = (x2,y2) = (400,300)

d = Length of AB

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(0-400)^2 + (0-300)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-400)^2 + (-300)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{160000 + 90000}\\\\d = \sqrt{250000}\\\\d = 500\\\\

The distance from A to B is 500 miles. This is the same as saying segment AB is 500 miles long.

----------------------------------------

Now find the length of segment BC

B = (x1,y1) = (400,300)

C = (x2,y2) = (-800,800)

d = length of BC

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(400-(-800))^2 + (300-800)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(400+800)^2 + (300-800)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(1200)^2 + (-500)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{1440000 + 250000}\\\\d = \sqrt{1690000}\\\\d = 1300\\\\

----------------------------------------

The length of CD is fairly easy to find without needing the distance formula. This is because it is a vertical line. We subtract the y coordinates of C and D to get 800-0 = 800. So CD is 800 miles long.

Segment DA is a similar story. But we subtract the x coordinates. This only works for horizontal lines. DA is 800 miles long because |-800-0| = 800. Absolute value is used to make sure the distance is never negative.

----------------------------------------

To summarize everything so far, we found these four side lengths

  • AB = 500
  • BC = 1300
  • CD = 800
  • DA = 800

The perimeter is going to be the sum of those four sides, leading to...

perimeter = sum of sides

perimeter = AB+BC+CD+DA

perimeter = 500+1300+800+800

perimeter = 3400 miles

This is the total distance traveled if you started at city A, went to B, then to C, then to D, and then finally went back to A.
