Since VX is the bisector of angle V and < VXU is a right angle then UX is congruent to XW and triangle VUW is isosceles with VU = VW.

3z - 4 = x + 6
2z = 10
z = 5

so UW = 3(5) - 4 + 5 + 6 = 22
and VW = 5(5) - 1 = 24

VU = VW = 24

perimeter = 2(24) + 22 = 70

A battalion of 520 soldiers goes through 16,380 pounds of rations in 3 weeks. If 780 more soldiers join the battalion, how many

Scorpion4ik [409]

They would need 34.125 tons of rations.

In order to find this, we first need to see how many pounds of rations a single soldier eats in a week. To do this, we take the total eaten in 3 weeks and divide by 3. Then we divide by the number of soldiers.

16,380/3 weeks= 5460 lbs per week

5460/520 soldiers = 10.5 lbs per soldier per week

Now we look to see how many soldiers we will have in total after adding. There are 520 to start and we add 780 to get 1300 total. Next we multiply that by the total per soldier per week.

10.5lbs per soldier per week * 1300 soldiers = 13,650lbs per week

Then we have to multiply by the 5 weeks that battalion will be there.

13,650lbs * 5 weeks = 68,250lbs of rations or 24.125 tons.

The line plot shows the weights of packages of meat available at a grocery store. The 3 lightest packages cost $4.40 per pound.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

$42.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal axis is in fractions.

The three lightest are two $\frac{5}{8}$ pounds & one $\frac{6}{8}$ pounds. Each cost $4.40 per pound.

So cost = 4.40(5/8+5/8+6/8) = $8.8

Remaining costs 4.80 per pound. We add up the remaining and multiply by 4.80 to get their cost.

cost = $4.80(1+1\frac{1}{8}+1\frac{1}{8}+1\frac{1}{8}+1\frac{2}{8}+1\frac{3}{8})=33.6$

Hence, total cost = 8.8 + 33.6 = $42.40

Answer:

y-3 = (1/4)x; 4y = -4x +14; y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

>First find the equation of function A

general equation of a line is y=mx+b

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)= (0-(7/2))/(-7-0) = (-7/2) *(1/-7) = 1/2

consider the point (-7,0)

0 = -7(1/2) +b

7/2 = b

Function A has the equation y= (1/2)x +7/2

>rewrite the equations to fit the standard form

y-3 = (1/4)x ; add 3 to both sides

y= (1/4) x +3

4y = -4x +14 ,divide by 4 both sides

y= -x + 7/2

y=4

> intercept less than A

y-intercept for function A , y= (1/2)x +7/2, is 7/2 =3.5

y-intercept for function y= (1/4) x +3 is 3

3 < 7/2, so the answer is y-3 = (1/4)x

> intercept equal to A

y-intercept for function A , y= (1/2)x +7/2, is 7/2

y-intercept for function y= -x + 7/2 is 7/2

7/2=7/2 , so the answer is 4y = -4x +14

> intercept greater than A

y-intercept for function A , y= (1/2)x +7/2, is 7/2 =3.5

y-intercept for function y=4 is 4

4 > 7/2
