Answer:

$1.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the current price of the cookie be C whilst the normal price is c.

From the information we can deduce two equations.

Firstly, since they are $0.75 less than usual:

C+$0.75=c

Secondly, since seven cost $2.80

7C=$2.80

We can simplify this equation by dividng by 7

C=$0.40

Now combine the equations via substitution this value above into the first equation

$0.40 + $0.75= c

c= $1.15

Therefore the normal price is $1.15

What does the line 2x-3y=7 look like

fenix001 [56]

2x-3y=7
-3y = -2x+7
y= 2x/3-7/3
slope of 2/3 (rise 2, run 3)
y-intercept of -7/3
Would be a positive line, starting low on left and rising towards right

Answer:

30.01 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given vertices WXYZ:

W(-4,5), X(2,4), Y(3, -4), Z(-1, -6)

Perimeter is the sum of the side length.

Use distance formula to find each side:

WX = $\sqrt{(2+4)^2+(4-5)^2} =\sqrt{37}$ ≈ 6.08
XY = $\sqrt{(3-2)^2+(-4-4)^2} =\sqrt{65}$ ≈ 8.06
YZ = $\sqrt{(-1-3)^2+(-6+4)^2} =\sqrt{20}$ ≈ 4.47
WZ = $\sqrt{(-1+4)^2+(-6-5)^2} =\sqrt{130}$ $\sqrt{(-1+4)^2+(-6-5)^2}=\sqrt{130}$ ≈ 11.40
