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

The cost of a customer smartphone bill can be modeled by the equation c=10g+50
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

c=10(g+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The cost of customer smartphone bill is given by the equation as follows :

c=10g+50

Where

g is the number of gigabits of data the customer per month

We need to factor this cost polynomial

The common between 10 and 50 is 10

Taking 10 common. So,

c=10(g+5)

Hence, the required factor is equal to c=10(g+5).

Steve can run 3.5 miles in 30 minutes. If Steve increases his rate by 1/2 mile per hour, how far will he run in 2 hours?
Sati [7]

Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Steve runs 3.5 miles in 30 minutes (0.5 hours).  So his speed is:

r = 3.5 mi / 0.5 h

r = 7 mi/h

If his rate increases to 7.5 mi/h, the distance he runs in 2 hours is:

d = 7.5 mi/h × 2 h

d = 15 mi
