Answer: $3$ and $13$

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe the number line attached.

In order to find which numbers are a distance of $5\ units$ from $8$ on a number line, you can follow these steps:

First step: You must locate the number $8$ on the number line.

Second step: Move $5\ units$ to the left. Notice that the distance between the numbers $3$ and $8$ is $5\ units$

Third step: Move $5\ units$ to the right. Observe that the distance between the numbers $13$ and $8$ is $5\ units$

You can also verify this through the following addition and subtraction:

$8-5=3\\\\\\8+5=13$

Therefore, the numbers that are a distance of $5\ units$ from $8$ on a number line, are:

$3$ and $13$

Which is the graph of y = 2.5x? A. B. C. D.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

The answer is D. because first you got solve the problem.

y=2.5x
(turn y to 0)
0= 2.5x
÷2.5 ÷2.5
_________
0=x

So we got one answer (0,0)

y=2.5x
(turn x to 0)
y= 2.5(0)
y=2.5

(2.5, 0)

When you do (0,0) (2.5,0) on the graph it will look like D.)

The admission to a local fair is $10 for each adult and $6 for each child. Each ride costs $1.50 for an adult and $1 for a child

S_A_V [24]

So first start out by writing an expression for the cost of the child and the adult separately.

Child:
6 + 1r ($6 + $1 per ride)

Adult:
10 + 1.5r ($10 + $1.50 per ride)

to find how much more the adult will spend, just do Adult Expression - Child Expression which will be:

10 + 1.5r - (6 + 1r) just simplify this

For Part B, use your equation from part A where r = 7

A triangle has sides measuring 7 centimeters and 13 centimeters that form an angle measuring 44°. Which of these is CLOSEST to t

Oliga [24]

Answer:

9.3 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length of the third side of the triangle is c, then according to the Law of Cosines, c2 = 72 + 132 – 2(7)(13)(cos 44°). The value of c2 can be simplified to approximately 49 + 169 – 130.9198, or 87.0802, using a calculator. By taking the square root of 87.0802, the length of the third side of the triangle comes out to be approximately 9.3 centimeters.
