Elliott's bed -> 75 in
Elliott before -> 5 ft 11 in = 71 in
Elliott after -> 71 + 6 = 77 in

77 - 75 = 2 in

Elliott's bed is shorter than him by 2 inches.

( 32.45 - 4.8) - 2.06
Igoryamba

Answer:

25.59

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing that you will do is solve parenthesis (remember PEMDAS).

(32.45-4.8) - 2.06

(27.65) - 2.06

Then do the subtraction.

(27.65) - 2.06=

25.59

Hope this helps!

Polygon ABCD is reflected and dilated to give polygon PQRS. The coordinates of the preimage are (2, 2), (6, 8), (12, 8), and (16
HACTEHA [7]

Answer: The scale factor of the dilation is 0.5.

Explanation:

It is given that ABCD is polygon which is reflected and dilated , then we get PQRS.

The vertices of ABCD are (2, 2), (6, 8), (12, 8), and (16, 2) respectively. The vertices of image  PQRS are (11, 15),(9, 12), (6, 12), and (4, 15) respectively.

The reflection affects the coordinates but does not affect the length of the sides.

But when we talk about dilation it affects the length of sides according to the scale factor or a constant factor.

If a line segment AB is dilated by scale factor k then length of A'B' is k times length of AB.

|A'B'|=k\times |AB|   .... (1)

So we have to find any side length of preimage and the side length of that side in image. it means we have to find AB and PQ.

Use distance formula to find the side length.

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

AB=\sqrt{(8-2)^2+(6-2)^2}=\sqrt{36+16}=2\sqrt{13}

PQ=\sqrt{(9-11)^2+(12-15)^2}=\sqrt{4+9}=\sqrt{13}

It is noticed that the size of side in preimage is 2\sqrt{13} and the size of same side in image is \sqrt{13}.

Using equation (1), we get

\sqrt{13}=k \times 2\sqrt{13}

k=\frac{1}{2}

k=0.5

Hence, the value of scale factor is 0.5.

Zebras migrate in a circle with a round trip of about 300 miles. They travel at 64 km/h. How many hours does it take zebra to do
Tresset [83]

Answer:

7.5 hours (7 hours and 30 minutes)

Step-by-step explanation:

ok Let's start with 64km/h.

1.6 km=1 mile,

64÷1.6=40miles

so 64km/h changes into 40miles/hour.

Zebras's round trip =300miles,

300/40=7.5

so answer is 7.5 hours.

Disagree.
b/8 = 56; multiply both sides by 8 to solve for b, and you get b = 448
