Answer:

2 3/4 C

Step-by-step explanation:

$(21+\frac{1}{4})-(18+\frac{2}{4})\\=21-18+\frac{1}{4} -\frac{2}{4} \\=3-\frac{1}{4} \\=\frac{12-1}{4} \\=\frac{11}{4} \\=2\frac{3}{4} \\or\\21\frac{1}{4} -18\frac{2}{4} \\=\frac{85}{4} -\frac{74}{4} \\=\frac{85-74}{4} \\=\frac{11}{4} \\=2\frac{3}{4}$

Answer:

8√5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the diagram in the coordinate plane attached.

A rhombus has four equal sides and to find the perimeter of the rhombus we have to measure any of the sides of the figure of the rhombus.

The coordinates of the topmost point are (-1,-1) and that of the rightmost point are (3,-3).

Therefore, side length of the rhombus will be

$\sqrt{(- 1 - 3)^{2} + (- 1 - (- 3))^{2}} = \sqrt{20} = 2\sqrt{5}$ units.

So, the perimeter of the rhombus will be (4 × 2√5) units = 8√5 units. (Answer)

The distance between two points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ on a coordinate plane is given by

$\sqrt{(x_{1} - x_{2})^{2} + (y_{1} - y_{2})^{2}}$

Heba ate 1/12 of a box of cereal. Now the box is 3/4 full.

Alex Ar [27]

3/4 = 3/4*1

3/4 = 3/4 * 3/3 = 9/12

Box is 9/12 full after heba ate 1/12 of a box of cereal

Initial fraction will be 9/12+1/12

=10/12= 5/6
