Below is the solution:

8 weeks to earn;
plane ticket 2200 dollars;
job 20(hours/week), 11.5(dollars/hour) versus job 40(hours/week), 100(dollars)+9(dollars/hour)

Part of the question is how many weeks to work to get the needed money $2200.
Let w be how many weeks. w needs to be a Natural Number, when finished.

Tech Internship

8 x weeks x 20 x (hours/week) x 11.5 x (dollars/hours)
20 x 11.5 w
230w >/ 2200
23w >/ 220

Amusement Park
8 x weeks x 40 x (hours/week) x 9 x (dollar/hour) + 100 dolarrs
40 x 9 x w + 100
360w + 100 >/ 2200
36w +10 > 0220
18w + 5 >/ 110

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.

A scaled drawing of a rectangle park is 5 inches wide and 7 inches long. The actual park is 280 yards long. What is the area of

bazaltina [42]

7 inches → 280 yards
1 inch → 280 ÷ 7 = 40 yards
5 inches → 40 x 5 = 200 yards

Area = 280 x 200 = 56 000 yards

Answer: 56000 yards

Find the equation of a circle whose endpoints of the diameter are (15, - 3) and (7,3). The equation of the circle is (Simplify y

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

(x - 11)² + y² = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the center

O = ( (15 +7 / 2), (-3 + 3)/2 )

O = (11, 0)

Then find the radius squared

use the distance formula from the center to either end point of the diameter

r² = (15 - 11)² + (-3 - 0)²

r² = 16 + 9

r² = 25

Formula for circle

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(h, k) is the center = (11, 0)

The equation is

(x - 11)² + y² = 25

Kayla wants to find the width, AB, of a river. She walks along the edge of the river 65 ft and marks point C. Then she walks 25

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Part A) The triangles ABC and EDC are similar by AAA, because the three internal angles are equal in both triangles

Part B) The width of the river is about $39\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and its corresponding angles are congruent

Part A) we know that

In this problem , triangles ABC and CDE are similar by AAA, because its corresponding angles are congruent

m<DCE=m<ACB -----> by vertical angles

m<EDC=m<ABC -----> is a right angle

m<DEC=m<CAB -----> the sum of the internal angles must be equal to 180 degrees

Part B) we know that

The triangles ABC and EDC are similar -------> see Part A

therefore

$\frac{BC}{DC}=\frac{AB}{DE}$

substitute the values and solve for AB

$\frac{65}{25}=\frac{AB}{15}$

$AB=15*(\frac{65}{25})=39\ ft$
