Answer: The correct option is (B) 10.44.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given a graph that has a point A at (1, -1) and a point B at (-9, -4).

We are to find the length of the line segment AB to the nearest hundredth.

The length of the line segment AB is given by the distance between the end-points A and B.

<u><em>DISTANCE FORMULA:</em></u> The distance between two points with co-ordinates (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

$D=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}.$

Therefore, the distance between the points A(1, -1) and B(-9, -4) is

$AB\\\\=\sqrt{(-9-1)^2+(-4-(-1))^2}\\\\=\sqrt{100+9}\\\\=\sqrt{109}\\\\=10.44~\textup{units}.$

Thus, the length of the line segment AB is 10.44 units.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

Olin [163]

Just do 8 1/3 divided by 5/9 or

25/3 / 5/9

25/3 * 9/5 = 5/1 * 3/1 = 15

So 15 tacos

* = times

Wholesome Pizza surveyed a random sample of 404040 Trinity Food Festival attendees about their favorite type of pizza. Of the at

ale4655 [162]

For this case the first thing we should do is find the percentage of people surveyed who said that pizza pizza was their favorite type of pizza.
We have then:
$x = (21/40) * (100)

x = 52.5%$
We are now looking for 52.5% of 1600 people.
For this, we make the following rule of three:
1600 ----------> 100%
x ---------------> 52.5%
Clearing the value of x we have:
$x = (52.5 / 100) * (1600)

x = 840$
Answer:
the most reasonable estimate for the number of Trinity Food Festival attendees whose favorite type of pizza is sausage pizza is:
x = 840

Which is the best estimate for the diagonal of a rectangle with a width of x and a length of 2x, if x is 1.33?

german

The best estimate for the diagonal of the rectangle is 3 ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

In a rectangle:

The length and the width are perpendicular
The length of its diagonal = $\sqrt{(length)^{2}+(width)^{2}}$ (the diagonal is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are the length and the width of the rectangle)
