Check the picture below.

now, you can pretty much count the units off the grid for the segments ST and RU, so each is 7 units long, and are parallel, meaning that the other two segments are also parallel, and therefore the same length each.

so we can just find the length for hmmmm say SR, since SR = TU, TU is the same length,

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
S(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad 
R(\stackrel{x_2}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5})\qquad \qquad 
%  distance value
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
SR=\sqrt{[-5-(-2)]^2+[5-1]^2}\implies SR=\sqrt{(-5+2)^2+(5-1)^2}
\\\\\\
SR=\sqrt{(-3)^2+4^2}\implies SR=\sqrt{25}\implies SR=5

sum all segments up, and that's perimeter.

Steve is trying to increase his average pace per mile by running hills. The hill on 1st Avenue rises 3 vertical feet for each ho
marissa [1.9K]
1st Avenue would be more difficult because it’s rise and run is for every one foot forward it is 3 feet up. Meanwhile avenue 16th would start at (3,1) and the rise and run would be for every 3 feet it would go up 1 foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

That function is a line that goes through the origin (0,0).

You only need one more point to be able to draw it.

Take x=4,5 the corresponding value of y is exactly what you want to know, the number of miles the lava moved after 4,5 hours.

So y = 6 * 4,5 = 27

Your second point is (4,5 , 27).

Now you can draw your line.

You deposit $1200 in an account. The annual interest rate is 3%. How long will it take you to earn $108 in simple interest?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

<em>Interest = $3,888</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

I = prt or I = p · r · t

what it stands for:

I = amount of interest

P = principal amount ($1,200)

R = interest rate (in years)(3% into decimal which would be .03)

T = amount of time (in years)($108)

so:

I = prt

I = (1,200)(.03)(108)

I = $3,888

Interest = $3,888
