The answer:
the total distance of the trip is 821 miles from home,
for this the car <span>gets 24 miles per gallon
</span>the average price of gas is $3.74 per gallon
the price can be calculated as:
for the trip,
24 miles-------------1 gallon
821 miles------------ x= 821/24=34.20 gallons
1 gallon------------- $3.74
34.20 gallons---------x=?
to find this value
34.20 gallons x $3.74 = $127.93.

Answer: A. 9</h3>
=====================================================
Explanation:
Draw in the segments AO and OC.
Triangle ABO is congruent to triangle CBO. We can prove this through the use of the HL theorem. HL stands for hypotenuse leg.
Since the triangles are congruent, this means the corresponding pieces AB and BC are the same length.
Then we can say:
AB+BC = AC .... segment addition postulate
AB+AB = AC .... plug in BC = AB
2*AB = AC
2*AB = 18
AB = 18/2 .... divide both sides by 2
AB = 9
In short, the chord AC is bisected by the perpendicular radius drawn in the diagram. So all we do is cut AC = 18 in half to get AB = 9.
Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to simplify.
5x + 32 = 4 - 2x
7x + 32 = 4
7x = -28
x = -4
Hope this helps!
