Dylan and Frank have designed a compression algorithm used for directions to unknown locations. In their algorithm the direction

to travel at each intersection encountered is replaced with a single letter: "E" for East, "W" for West, "N" for North and "S" for South. In addition, the string "EEE" is replaced with "A" and "SSS" is replaced with "D". Which of the following best describes the directions which are expressed as "NASSA" when compressed using Dylan and Frank’s algorithm?

Answer:

The directions followed for each intersection in order are North, 3 times East, 2 times South

and 3 times East.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the word NASSA in their algorithm we know the direction they take in the first intersection is North (N).

The second letter is A = EEE, which means in the 3 next intersections they follow the East.

The two Ss indicate they follow South in the next 2 intersections.

And finally, they follow the East in the last 3 intersections.

Their direction choices can be summarized in North-East-East-East-South-South-East-East-East.

He truck is rented at $40 per day plus they charge per mile of use the truck travel 15 miles in one day and the total charge was
Allushta [10]

Answer:

115 = 15 x + 40

the charge is $5 dollars per mile

Step-by-step explanation:

He truck is rented at $40 per day plus they charge per mile of use the truck travel 15 miles in one day and the total charge was 115

LEt x  be  the charge in dollars per hour

Initial charge is 40 and 15 miles travelled  in one day

total charge = 15x + 40

Given : total charge is 115

So the equation becomes

115 = 15 x + 40

Now we solve for x

Subtract 40 from both sides

75= 15 x

Divide both sides by 15

x= 5

so , the charge is $5 dollars per mile

A line passing (a,3) and (5,5) is perpendicular to a line passing through (0,0) and (1,a) Find the value of a.
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

a = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

(5 - 3)/(5 - a)

2/(5 - a)

perpendicular of 2/(5 - a) = -(5 - a)/2

(a - 0)/(1 - 0) = -(5 - a)/2

a/1 = -(5 - a)/2

2a = -5 + a

a = -5

Suppose Evan is trying to build a frame out of popsicle sticks x inches long. The frame will have length (2x – 3) and width of (
erik [133]

Answer:

The correct option is A)  3 square inches; 2x^2-7x+6.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the length of the frame is (2x-3) and the width is (x-2)

The area of the rectangle is: A=l\times w

Where, A is the area l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle.

Put l=(2x-3) and w=(x-2) in the area of the rectangle.

A=(2x-3)(x-2)\\A=2x^2-4x-3x+6\\A=2x^2-7x+6

The area of the frame expressed as a polynomial is 2x^2-7x+6.

Now substitute x=3 in A=2x^2-7x+6.

A=2(3)^2-7(3)+6\\A=18-21+6\\A=3

The area of the frame is 3 square inches.

Hence, the correct option is A)  3 square inches; 2x^2-7x+6.

X+2y=12. what does x equal​
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

x = -2y + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

x + 2y = 12

Step 1: Add -2y to both sides.

x + 2y + −2y = 12 + −2y

x = −2y + 12
