Answer:

450m South

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance traveled Northward :

1000m + 600m = 1600m Northward

Total distance traveled Southward :

1250m + 800m = 2050m

The Displacement :

Southward - Northward

2050m - 1650m

= 450m

Since, it covers more distance towards the south, then, direction is southward

450m South

Use the quadratic formula x^2-5x+3=0
kifflom [539]

Answer:

x^2 -5x +3 = 0\\\\ x= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4*a*c} }{2a} \\\\b = -5, a = 1 , c = 3\\\\x= \frac{-b + \sqrt{b^2-4*a*c} }{2a} , x= \frac{-b -\sqrt{b^2-4*a*c} }{2a}\\\\x= \frac{5 + \sqrt{25-12} }{2}, x= \frac{5-\sqrt{25-12} }{2}\\\\x= \frac{5+\sqrt{13} }{2}, x= \frac{5- \sqrt{13} }{2}

Answer:

C) The cost increases $2.50 for every additional pair of shoes rented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice a pattern. When you buy a new pair of shoes, the total gets increased by $2.50 depending on how many pairs of shoes you buy. For example, starting with 1 pair of shoes, it costs $2.50, but when you buy another pair, the cost is $2.50+$2.50=2*$2.50=$5.00, and so on...

Therefore, the correct choice is C
