Find the approximate perimeter of ABC plotted below.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

B. 21.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of ∆ABC = AB + BC + AC

A(-4, 1)

B(-2, 3)

C(3, -4)

✔️Distance between A(-4, 1) and B(-2, 3):

$AB = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{(-2 - (-4))^2 + (3 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (2)^2)}$

$AB = \sqrt{4 + 4}$

$AB = \sqrt{16}$

AB = 4 units

✔️Distance between B(-2, 3) and C(3, -4):

$BC = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

$BC = \sqrt{(3 - (-2))^2 + (-4 - 3)^2} = \sqrt{(5)^2 + (-7)^2)}$

$BC = \sqrt{25 + 49}$

$BC = \sqrt{74}$

BC = 8.6 units (nearest tenth)

✔️Distance between A(-4, 1) and C(3, -4):

$AC = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}$

$AC = \sqrt{(3 - (-4))^2 + (-4 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{(7)^2 + (-5)^2)}$

$AC = \sqrt{47 + 25}$

$AC = \sqrt{74}$

AC = 8.6 units (nearest tenth)

Perimeter of ∆ABC = 4 + 8.6 + 8.6 = 21.2 units

A+b=180 A=-2x+115 B=-6x+169 What is the value of B?

natulia [17]

The answer is: " 91 " .
___________________________________________________
→ " B = 91 " .
__________________________________________________

Explanation:
__________________________________________________
Given:
__________________________________________________
" A + B = 180 " ;

"A = -2x + 115 " ; ↔ A = 115 − 2x ;

"B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x ;
_____________________________________________________
METHOD 1)
_____________________________________________________
Solve for "x" ; and then plug the solved value for "x" into the expression given for "B" ; to solve for "B"
_____________________________________________________

(115 − 2x) + (169 − 6x) =

115 − 2x + 169 − 6x = ?

→ Combine the "like terms" ; as follows:

+ 115 + 169 = + 284 ;

− 2x − 6x = − 8x ;
_________________________________________________________
And rewrite as:

" − 8x + 284 " ;
_________________________________________________________
→ " - 8x + 284 = 180 " ;

Subtract: "284" from each side of the equation:

 → " - 8x + 284 − 284 = 180 − 284 " ;

to get:

→ " -8x = -104 ;

Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "-8 " ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;

→ -8x / -8 = -104/-8 ;

→ x = 13
__________________________________________________________
Now, to find the value of "B" :
__________________________________________________________
 "B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x ;

↔ B = 169 − 6x ;

= 169 − 6(13) ; ===========> Plug in our "solved value, "13", for "x" ;

= 169 − (78) ;

= 91 ;

 B = " 91 " .
__________________________________________________
The answer is: " 91 " .
____________________________________________________
→ " B = 91 " .
____________________________________________________
Now; let us check our answer:
____________________________________________________
→ A + B = 180 ;
____________________________________________________
Plug in our "solved answer" ; which is "91", for "B" ; as follows:
________________________________________________________

→ A + 91 = ? 180? ;

↔ A = ? 180 − 91 ? ;

→ A = ? -89 ? Yes!
________________________________________________________
→ " A = -2x + 115 " ; ↔ A = 115 − 2x ;

Plug in our solved value for "x"; which is: "13" ;

" A = 115 − 2x " ;

→ A = ? 115 − 2(13) ? ;

→ A = ? 115 − (26) ? ;

→ A = ? 29 ? Yes!
_________________________________________________
METHOD 2)
_________________________________________________
Given:
__________________________________________________
" A + B = 180 " ;

"A = -2x + 115 " ; ↔ A = 115 − 2x ;

"B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x ;

→ Solve for the value of "B" :
_______________________________________________________
A + B = 180 ;

→ B = 180 − A ;

→ B = 180 − (115 − 2x) ;

→ B = 180 − 1(115 − 2x) ; ==========> {Note the "implied value of "1" } ;
__________________________________________________________
Note the "distributive property" of multiplication:__________________________________________________ a(b + c) = ab + ac ; AND:
a(b − c) = ab − ac .________________________________________________________
Let us examine the following part of the problem:
________________________________________________________
→ " − 1(115 − 2x) " ;
________________________________________________________

→ " − 1(115 − 2x) " = (-1 * 115) − (-1 * 2x) ;

= -115 − (-2x) ;

= -115 + 2x ;
________________________________________________________
So we can bring down the: " {"B = 180 " ...}" portion ;

→and rewrite:
_____________________________________________________

→ B = 180 − 115 + 2x ;

→ B = 65 + 2x ;
_____________________________________________________
Now; given: "B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x ;

→ " B = 169 − 6x = 65 + 2x " ;
______________________________________________________
→ " 169 − 6x = 65 + 2x "

Subtract "65" from each side of the equation; & Subtract "2x" from each side of the equation:

→ 169 − 6x − 65 − 2x = 65 + 2x − 65 − 2x ;

to get:

→ " - 8x + 104 = 0 " ;

Subtract "104" from each side of the equation:

→ " - 8x + 104 − 104 = 0 − 104 " ;

to get:

→ " - 8x = - 104 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "-8" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;

→ -8x / -8 = -104 / -8 ;

to get:

→ x = 13 ;
______________________________________________________

Now, let us solve for: " B " ; → {for which this very question/problem asks!} ;

→ B = 65 + 2x ;

Plug in our solved value, " 13 ", for "x" ;

→ B = 65 + 2(13) ;

= 65 + (26) ;

→ B = " 91 " .
_______________________________________________________
Also, check our answer:
_______________________________________________________
Given: "B = - 6x + 169 " ; ↔ B = 169 − 6x = 91 ;

When "x = 13 " ; does: " B = 91 " ?

→ Plug in our "solved value" of " 13 " for "x" ;

→ to see if: "B = 91" ; (when "x = 13") ;

→ B = 169 − 6x ;

= 169 − 6(13) ;

= 169 − (78)______________________________________________________
→ B = " 91 " .

Ean: jenny wants to make three pillow cases using fourteen feet of fabric. She plans to use an equal amount of fabric for each p

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Approximately 4.67 feet of fabric is required for one pillow case.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of pillow cases to be made by Jenny = 3

Amount of fabric Jenny has = 14 feet

Each pillow case use same amount of fabric.

Amount of fabric used to make 1 pillow case =

$=\dfrac{\text{Amount of fabric}}{\text{Number of pillow cases}}\\\\=\dfrac{14\text{ feet}}{3}\\\\\approx 4.67\text{ feet}$

Thus, approximately 4.67 feet of fabric is required for one pillow case.

Oumou is buying tile for her kitchen. The area of Oumou’s rectangular kitchen, in square feet, can be found by using the express

SOVA2 [1]

Explanation: “The distributive property is where a number or value is distributed into a whole equation. Based on the work below as you can see I “distributed” 5 to (3m+4n) meaning I multiplied 5&3m and 5&4n, when I multiply 5&3 that give me 15, and when I multiply 5&4 that gives me 20. So when finally simplified my new equation is 15m+20n”

Make sure when you is the distributive property that you always add the variables because it will be wrong.
