I'll do problem 1 to get you started.

The answer to problem 1 is <u>3400 miles</u>

============================================================

Explanation for problem 1:

We're asked to find the perimeter, which is the total distance around the exterior or outside. In other words, we need to add up the four side lengths of this quadrilateral.

We'll need the distance formula to find the lengths of the slanted sides AB and BC

----------------------------------------

Let's first find the length of segment AB

A = (x1,y1) = (0,0)

B = (x2,y2) = (400,300)

d = Length of AB

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(0-400)^2 + (0-300)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-400)^2 + (-300)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{160000 + 90000}\\\\d = \sqrt{250000}\\\\d = 500\\\\

The distance from A to B is 500 miles. This is the same as saying segment AB is 500 miles long.

----------------------------------------

Now find the length of segment BC

B = (x1,y1) = (400,300)

C = (x2,y2) = (-800,800)

d = length of BC

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(400-(-800))^2 + (300-800)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(400+800)^2 + (300-800)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(1200)^2 + (-500)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{1440000 + 250000}\\\\d = \sqrt{1690000}\\\\d = 1300\\\\

----------------------------------------

The length of CD is fairly easy to find without needing the distance formula. This is because it is a vertical line. We subtract the y coordinates of C and D to get 800-0 = 800. So CD is 800 miles long.

Segment DA is a similar story. But we subtract the x coordinates. This only works for horizontal lines. DA is 800 miles long because |-800-0| = 800. Absolute value is used to make sure the distance is never negative.

----------------------------------------

To summarize everything so far, we found these four side lengths

  • AB = 500
  • BC = 1300
  • CD = 800
  • DA = 800

The perimeter is going to be the sum of those four sides, leading to...

perimeter = sum of sides

perimeter = AB+BC+CD+DA

perimeter = 500+1300+800+800

perimeter = 3400 miles

This is the total distance traveled if you started at city A, went to B, then to C, then to D, and then finally went back to A.

Answer:

The total distance is 3400 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following points:

​A(0,0)

B(400,300)

C(−800,800)

D(−800,0)

​

we can find the distance between each of them using the following equation:

d(X,Y)=

√(x2

−x1

)2

+(y2

−y1

)

2

in this case, we only need to find the distance from A to B and from B to C:

​d(A,B)=

√(400−0)2

+(300−0)2

=

√160000+90000

=

√250000

=500

d(B,C)=

√(−800−400)2

+(800−300)2

=

√1440000+250000

=

√1690000

=1300

​

next, notice that the distance from C to D and from D to A are on lines parallel to the x-axis and the y-axis, then, we can see that the distances are the follwing:

​d(C,D)=800

d(D,A)=800

​

then, the total distance traveled will be the perimeter of the polygon, Thus, adding the distances we have:

​P=d(A,B)+d(B,C)+d(C,D)+d(D,A)=500+1300+800+800

=3400

⇒P=3400miles

50 POINTS+BRAINLIEST!!!!
Ilya [14]

Answer: So, we know that the internal angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees, yes?  

60 degrees plus 50 degrees equals 110 degrees, and subtract 110 from 180, and you get 70 degrees for angle y.

Now, if the triangles are congruent (identical) and the shape you are describing is like an hourglass, then because of the vertical angles theorem, angle x should be 70 degrees too!

Brainliest please if I am correct!  and hope it helped.

What is the inverse of f(x)=4x+5?
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

swap y and x in the function. that is

x = f(y)

we get x=4y+5

<em>S</em><em>o</em><em>l</em><em>v</em><em>e </em><em>for </em><em>y</em>

(x-5)/4=y

f ^{ - 1}(x) =  \frac{1}{4}  (x - 5)

Tom buys a shirt for 22.00 plus 7% sales tax. His cousin buys a shirt for 18.00 plus sales tax. How much do tom and his cousin p
Novay_Z [31]
Hey You!

Tom:

22*7% = 1.54

His Cousin:

18*7% = 1.26


22 + 1.54 = 23.54

18 + 1.26 = 19.26

So, Tom pays $23.54 and His Cousin pays $19.26 and Tom payed more tax.

Which phrase should be inserted on the line to correctly compare the two fractions? Use the models to help. StartFraction 7 Over
ANEK [815]

Answer:

7/8 is greater than 2/4

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question basically, what we are trying to do is to compare fractions and state which is greater or less.

The first fractions in the question is;

7/8 _ 2/4

Now, one of the best ways to go around comparing fractions is looking at the denominators.

In this question, the denominators in the fractions are 8 and 4.

The next thing to do here is to multiply the numerator and the denominator of the first by 4 and the numerator and the denominator of the second by 8. This makes it possible for us to have the same denominator in both fractions and thus compare both fractions directly.

Thus, what we have would be;

7/8 = 7/8 * 1 = 7/8 * 4/4 = 28/32

Now for the fraction;

2/4 = 2/4 * 1 = 2/4 * 8/8 = 16/32

We can see they both have a common denominator and we can directly compare their numerators.

Obviously, 28 is greater than 16 and this makes a case for the fact that 7/8 is greater than 2/4

So what we have in the blank is ; is greater than

Kindly note that the other part of the question that talks about shading circles is same as saying 7/8 and 2/4
