John = x

Mary = 3x

If John = 6 years old

===> Mary = 3(6) = 18 years old

Next birthday

===> 18 + 1 = 19 years old

M = 3j

J = 6

M = 18, she will be 19 on her next birthday

The temperature in the afternoon was 10 degrees. By 8 pm, the temperature was -5

Ket [755]

Answer:

The temperature had dropped by 15 degrees (-15 if you don't want it positive.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay!

This is a subtraction problem.

If it started off at 10, and went down to -5, we can do |-5 - 10| (I am using the two bars because it said change.) And we get 15!

What is the perimeter of the trapezoid with vertices Q(8, 8), R(14, 16), S(20, 16), and T(22, 8)? Round to the nearest hundredth

EleoNora [17]

Check the picture below.

so... you can pretty much see how long RS and QT are, you can just count the units off the grid.

now, let's find QR's length

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&Q&(~ 8 &,& 8~) 
% (c,d)
&R&(~ 14 &,& 16~)
\end{array}~~ 
% distance value
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
QR=\sqrt{(14-8)^2+(16-8)^2}\implies QR=\sqrt{6^2+8^2}
\\\\\\
QR=\sqrt{36+64}\implies QR=\sqrt{100}\implies QR=10$

and let's also find the length for ST

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&S&(~ 20 &,& 16~) 
% (c,d)
&T&(~ 22 &,& 8~)
\end{array}~ 
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
ST=\sqrt{(22-20)^2+(8-16)^2}\implies ST=\sqrt{2^2+(-8)^2}
\\\\\\
ST=\sqrt{4+64}\implies ST=\sqrt{68}\implies ST=\sqrt{4\cdot 17}
\\\\\\
ST=\sqrt{2^2\cdot 17}\implies ST=2\sqrt{17}$

so, add the lengths of all sides, and that's the perimeter of the trapezoid.
