Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, what we know is that the total distance from the dormitory to the city is 1 if expressed in fraction. What we need to know is the fraction of the journey that is scheduled as the last part.

We can get this by subtracting the fractions of the first two phases from 1.

This goes as follows:

1 - (1/5) - (2/3) = 2/15

Now, we know that the final 8 kilometers constitute a fraction of just 2/5

Hence, we know that 2/15 of the total journey is 8 kilometers.

Let the total journey distance be T. This means that 2/15 of T is 8km

2/15 * T = 8km

T = ( 8 * 15 )/2 = 120/2 = 60km

I don't understand this, someone please help me

Answer:

  the distance between the points is about 9.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

It is well you should not understand it. <em>No question is asked</em>.

__

The answer choices suggest you are to find the distance between the two points. There is only one choice in a reasonable range: 9.2 units.

Each point is more than 2 units from any axis, so 2 units is clearly not the answer. The size of the graph is much less than 81 units, so clearly that is not the answer.

The difference of coordinates in the x-direction is 6; in the y-direction the difference is 7 units. The distance between the points will be more than the longest of these (7) and less than about 1.5 times that (10.5). Only one choice is in this range: 9.2 units.

__

The Pythagorean theorem is used to calculate the distance between points. The distance is considered to be the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of lengths equal to the differences of coordinates. Here, that means the distance (d) is ...

  d² = 6² + 7² = 36 +49 = 85

  d = √85 ≈ 9.2 . . . . grid squares, or "units"
