To find the percent increase you will create a ratio of the difference between the 2 prices and the starting price.

<u>(12.60-10.50)
</u> 10.50
<u>
2.10
</u>10.50
<u>
210
</u>1050
<u>
1
</u>5 is the ratio.<u>

What is the perimeter of the trapezoid with vertices Q(8, 8), R(14, 16), S(20, 16), and T(22, 8)? Round to the nearest hundredth

uysha [10]

Answer:

The perimeter of the trapezoid is $38.25\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter of the trapezoid is the sum of its four side lengths

so

In this problem

$P=QR+RS+ST+QT$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have

$Q(8, 8), R(14, 16), S(20, 16),T(22, 8)$

step 1

Find the distance QR

$Q(8, 8), R(14, 16)$

substitute the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(16-8)^{2}+(14-8)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{100}$

$QR=10\ units$

step 2

Find the distance RS

$R(14, 16), S(20, 16)$

substitute the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(16-16)^{2}+(20-14)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{36}$

$RS=6\ units$

step 3

Find the distance ST

$S(20, 16),T(22, 8)$

substitute the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(8-16)^{2}+(22-20)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-8)^{2}+(2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{68}$

$ST=8.25\ units$

step 4

Find the distance QT

$Q(8, 8),T(22, 8)$

substitute the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(8-8)^{2}+(22-8)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(14)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{196}$

$QT=14\ units$

step 5

Find the perimeter

$P=10+6+8.25+14=38.25\ units$

Can someone answer this

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x 6 a

8 48 c

-4 b 20

Let the unknown numbers of the multiplication grid are a, b and c.

1). 6 × 8 = 48

2). (-4)×6 = b

b = -24

3). (-4) × a = 20

a = -5

4). 8 × a = c

8 × (-5) = c

c = -40

Therefore, missing in the given multiplication grid are,

x 6 -5

8 48 -40

-4 -24 20
