<h3>Answer: Choice D.  12,600 feet</h3>

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

Explanation:

We have two similar triangles here, so we can set up the proportion below to solve for x

5200/(5200+6500) = 5600/x

5200/11700 = 5600/x

5200x = 11700*5600 .... cross multiply

5200x = 65,520,000

x = (65,520,000)/(5200)

x = 12,600 which shows why the answer is choice D

side note: 12,600 ft = 2.386 miles approximately

What is the equation of the line graphed below?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer: y=-\frac{1}{3}x

Step-by-step explanation:

From the origin we can see to get to the point plotted we have to go down 1 and right three giving us the slope \frac{-1}{3}

These are in the form of y=mx+b

b is the y-intercept and m is the slope

since the y-intercept is 0 b is 0 and isn't need leaving us with y=mx

We can put our slope into the equation giving us the answer in C

Using the completing-the-square method, find the vertex of the function f(x) =- 3x2 + 6x − 2 and indicate whether it is a minimu
svp [43]
F(x) = -3x² + 6x - 2
First, we make the coefficient of x² equal to 1
f(x) = -3(x² + 2x - 2/3)

Now, we must make the form a² + 2ab + b²
b = 2x/2x
b = 1

f(x) = -3(x² + 2x + 1² - 1² - 2/3)
f(x) = -3(x² + 2x + 1 - 5/3)
f(x) = -3(x + 1)² - 5

The vertex is (-1 , -5)
And this is the maximum point because the coefficient of the squared term is negative.

A manager at SUBWAY wants to find the total cost of 24 8 pounds of sliced turkey at S..89 a pound and 38.2 pounds of provolone c
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The Total of both the sliced turkey and provolone cheese together is $46.49

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

Assuming that the the sliced turkey costs $0.89 / pound (<u>Since it didn't show up correctly in the question)</u> we can create the following equation to solve for the total cost of the order.

\frac{24.8 lb}{0.89} + \frac{38.2 lb}{2.05} = Total

27.86 + 18.63 = Total ....rounded to nearest hundredth

46.49 = Total

So the total of both the sliced turkey and provolone cheese together is $46.49

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
