Answer:

C: 77 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The points form a right triangle triangle with the legs being 44 and 63 and the distance between Washington and Midland being the hypotenuse.

See graph and connect the dots.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse

a^2 +b^2 =c^2

44^2 + 63^2 = c^2

1936 + 3969 = c^2

5905 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

76.84399781

Rounding to the nearest mile

77 miles

Fitness Explosion charges $26 per month for a membership. Fitquest charges $15 per month plus a $55 initiation fee for membershi

hjlf

So after one month, FE (fitness explosion) costs $26 and Fitquest is $70; two months it's FE = $52, FQ = $85; three months it's FE = $78, FQ = $100; four months FE = $104, FQ = $115; five months FE = $130, FQ = $130. So answer C. 5 months is correct.

I won $60,000 I invested part in a CD at 2% interest the rest at 3%interest in a cd at the end of the year I earned $1600 in int

zaharov [31]

Let x = amount invested in 2% CD and y = amount invested in 3% CD
x + y = 60000
0.02x + 0.03y = 1600
SOLVE THE 1st EQUATION FOR x AND SUBSTITUTE RESULT IN 2nd
0.02(60000 - y) + 0.03y = 1600
1200 - 0.02y + 0.03y = 1600
0.03y = 400
y = 13333.34
x = 46666.66
