5.48 to the nearest tenth is 5.5
9.63 is closest to 9.6
17.24 is closest to 17.2

5.5+9.6=15.1
17.2-15.1=2.1

miskamm [114]

Let the distance of Judy from intersection is x and distance of Jackie from intersection is y.

We convert the given information to equations, step by step.

Point 1: When Jackie is 1 mile farther from the intersection than Judy.

This means y is 1 mile more than x.

So,

y = 1 + x

Point 2: The distance between them is 2 miles more than Judy’s distance from the intersection.

Distance between is x+ y.

So, x+y is 2 miles more than y.

x+y = y + 2
⇒
x = 2

From point 1 we have:

y = 1 + x = 1+ 2 = 3

So,

Distance of Judy from intersection is 2 miles and distance of Jackie from intersection is 3 miles.

Answer: No, your friend is not correct. You cannot use a similarity transformation to turn a square into a rectangle. Here's why:

1) If you used a similarity transformation, the size and position of the shape would change, but the shape itself remains the same.

2) Squares and rectangles are NOT similar.* Referring to the first point I listed, if the shapes are not similar, then a similarity transformation cannot be used to turn one shape into another.

<em>*Similar means that the edges are proportional to one another, such as a square with sides of 4 meters vs a square with sides of 2 meters: the sides are different lengths, but the shape is the same.</em>

I hope this helps! Please feel free to comment below if you need any clarification. Have a good day, and good luck on your assignment. :)
