We use the distance formula for this problem.
d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]
The distance between point (-2,-2) and point (-2,4).
d = √[(⁻2 - ⁻2)² + (4 - ⁻2)²] = 6 units
Then, compute for 20% of 6 units:
Distance traveled = 6(0.2) = 1.2 units
Use 1.2 units as distance and the starting point (-2,-2). The x-coordinate should still be at -2 because the distance is a straight line as shown in the picture.
1.2 = √[(-2 - ⁻2)² + (y - ⁻2)²]
Solving for y,
y = -0.8
The point is found at (-2,-0.8). This is located at quadrant 3. As to the distance traveled, that would be: 1.2*6 = 6 miles. Thus, the answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
hello,
the shape is a right trapezium.
you use the following formula:
area of a trapezium = ½ × sum of parallel sides× height.
or simply,
a = ½ ( a + b ) h
where a and b are the parallel sides
and h is the height.
thus,
a = ½ × ( 4 + 6 )× 4
a = ½ ( 10 ) × 4
a = 5 × 4
a = 20
have a great day! au revoir !

Step-by-step explanation:
C) (0.85 + x/100)(250+145) does not give the correct answer.
Explanation
A) works; adding the two costs together is 250+145=395. We multiply this by 0.85 because 100%-15%=85%=0.85. We also have x% tax, which is represented by x/100, added to 100% of the value, or 1.00. Altogether this gives us
395(0.85)(1+x/100) = 395(0.85 + (0.85x/100)) = 395(0.85) + 395(0.85x/100)
= 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x)
B) works; we have 250+145 for the original price; we have 85% = 0.85 of the value; we also have 100% + x%, which is (100+x)/100.
C) does not work; (0.85+x/100)(395) does not take into consideration that you are finding the tax after taking the 85%. This will simplify out to
0.85*395 + (x/100)(395) = 335.75 + 395x/100 = 335.75 + 3.95x, which is too much.
D) works; simplifying the expression from A, we have 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x) = 335.75 + 3.3575x.
