Difference means to minus

5 1/4 - 2 3/4 = 

[since 1/4 cannot minus 3/4, we need to convert one of the 5 wholes into quarters: 5 1/4 = 4 5/4 ]


5 1/4 - 2 3/4
= 4 5/4 - 2 3/4
= 2 2/4
= 2 1/2

Which pair of polygons are congruent?
dalvyx [7]
<h3>Answer: D) pairs 2 and 4</h3>

Pair 2 shows one figure rotated 180 degrees compared to the other, and translated as well. So they are congruent (ie the same).

Pair 4 shows one triangle reflected over the vertical line x = 22 to get the other triangle; which shows they are the same triangle.

The other pairs are not congruent. You can show that the areas of each figure being different is enough to prove they aren't the same figure.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!! DUE TODAY

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

when  1/2 inch equals 4 feet the room is  2.25 inches, then

2 1/4 = 8/4 + 1/4  = 9/4

9/4 inches is the scale distance of the room

each 1/2 inch is 4 feet so divide  9/4 by 1/2 then multiply that by 4 to find the distance of the room

9/4 ÷ 1/2  = 9/4

9/4 * 2/1 = 18/4

18/4 = 9/2

9/2 * 4 feet = 9/2 * 4/1

9/2 * 4/1 = 36/2

36/2=18

the room is 18 feet across

then if the scale is 2/3 of an inch is  4 feet , then

2/3 * 9/4 = 18/12

18/12 = 3 inches  is the scale size of Quinto's room

In a college parking lot, the number of ordinary cars is larger than the number of sport utility vehicles by 77.3%. the differen
mezya [45]

Let x be the number of ordinary cars

Let y be the number of SUV's

The difference between the number of ordinary cars and the number of suvs is 17.

So x-y=17 ----> first equation

The number of ordinary cars is larger than the number of sport utility vehicles by 77.3%.

ordinary cars = SUV + 77.3% of SUV

x = y + 0.773y

x = 1.773y

Now we solve for y

We plug in x=1.773y in first equation

1.773y - y=17

0.773y = 17

y = 21.9922

Number of SUV's = 22
