Answer:

Given that the question rightly asks the amount it cost to drive from Smithville to Jones City, we have;

The question rightly asks the amount it cost to drive from Smithville to Jones City is approximately $7.209

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of Smithville is (-25, 10)

The coordinates of Jones City is (15, 12)

The cost of driving a car for a mile = $0.18

Therefore, the distance from Smithville to Jones City is given by the formula for the distance, l, between two points with coordinates as follows;

l = \sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1}  \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1}  \right )^{2}}

Where;

(x₁, y₁) = (-25, 10) and (x₂, y₂) = (15, 12)

l = \sqrt{\left (12-10  \right )^{2}+\left (15-(-25)  \right )^{2}} = 2 \cdot \sqrt{401}

The distance from Smithville to Jones City = 2·√401 ≈ 40.05 miles

The amount, A, it cost to drive from Smithville to Jones City a distance of approximately 40.05 miles is therefore given as follows;

A = 40.05 miles × $0.18 ≈ $7.209

2. Kim is x years old. Jordan is 7 years older than Kim. Four times Jordan’s age is equal to 200.
Shkiper50 [21]
Kim is X 
Jordan= x+7
So J x 4=200

This means 4(x+7) = 200
x=43
43+7=50
50 x 4=200

so Kim is 43 and Jordan is 50.

The vertices A(-2,-1), B(-3, 2), C(-1, 3), and D(0, 0) form a parallelogram. The vertices A'(-1, -2), B'(2, -3), C'(3,-1),
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule for this transformation is that (x,y) will become (y,x) if it flips over y=x OR the y-axis and the x-axis.
