Answer:

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

If 42 people equally share the bus price off 788 dollars then ech person would be expected to pay 788/42 = $18.76 (2dp) though I suppose if you needed to estimate it, you would round 788 to 800 and 42 down to 40 which would give you 800/40 = 20 dollars per person which is a pretty close estimate.

Hope this helped!

Draw the image of the following segment after a dilation centered at the origin with a scale factor of 2/3

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ends of the given segment are A and B.

Coordinates of A → (8, 6)

Coordinates of B → (12, 12)

If a point (x, y) is dilated by a scale factor 'k' about the origin, rule to be followed,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

If k = $\frac{2}{3}$

(x, y) → $(\frac{2}{3}x, \frac{2}{3}y)$

By this rule coordinates of the image points of A and B will be,

A(8, 6) → $A'(\frac{2\times 8}{3},\frac{2\times 6}{3})$

→ A'(5.3, 4)

B(12, 12) → $B'(\frac{12\times 2}{3}, \frac{12\times 2}{3})$

→ B'(8, 8)

Now we can get the image of segment AB after dilation by a scale factor of $\frac{2}{3}$ .

Will give brainliest!!! hurry up and solve it plzz

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we can say that AD is congruent to DC

so your equation for x is: 4x - 1 = 2x

solve this to get x = 0.5

plug x into and equation and multiply you answer by 2 to find the hypotenuse of triangle ABC and DEF

4(0.5) - 1 = 1

hypotenuse: 1 x 2 = 2

since we know x is 0.5, plug this into 4x + 1 to find the length of the leg FE,

4(0.5) + 1 = 3

In the diagram, it shows that the legs of triangle are congruent

this means that FE, ED, BA, and BC are all congruent

since we know FE is 3, we know that all the other sides are 3 as well

this means that the perimeter of the triangle is: leg + leg + hypotenuse

so 3 + 3 + 2

the perimeter is 8

Which is the correct answer ?????

Damm [24]

<h3>Answer: True</h3>

Explanation:

Technically you could isolate any variable you wanted, from either equation. However, convention is to pick the variable in which isolating it is easiest, and most efficient.

The key thing to look for is if there's a coefficient of 1. This is found in the second equation for the y term. Think of -4x+y = -13 as -4x+1y = -13. Due to the coefficient of 1, when solving for y we won't involve messy fractions.

If you were to solve for y, then you'd get y = 4x-13, which is then plugged in (aka substituted) into the first equation. That allows you to solve for x. Once you know x, you can determine y.

Does anyone know this answer

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The two legs are not equivalent pointing to a 30-60-90 triangle which means x=60 degrees

Yooo cuhh's is the square root of 64 a rational or irrational . ( and is it natural or a real number

Harman [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an integer (which includes the minus number).

It can be a natural number (if the value of an expression comes to +/- 8 and for some reason - 8 is not permitted because it's a length)

It is for certain a real number.
