Casey travels from her house directly west to the bank and then directly north from the bank to the mall. She then travels home
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

D) 40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must find the distance between the mall and the house.  The figure formed is a right triangle.  The length of the side from the mall to the house forms the hypotenuse of the triangle.  We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length:

a² + b² = c²

The two legs of the triangle, a and b, are 15 and 8:

15² + 8² = c²

225 + 64 = c²

289 = c²

Take the square root of each side:

√289 = √(c²)

17 = c

This makes the total distance

15+8+17= 40 miles

Select from the following choices those graphs that represent only a dilation applied to this polygon with a scale factor great
romanna [79]

Answer:

B and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Select graphs that are dilated by a scale factor greater than 1

For graph A:

Graph A is smaller than the original graph. This indicates dilation with a scale factor less than 1

For graph B:

Graph B is bigger than the original graph and is dilated over (0,0). This indicates dilation with a scale factor greater than 1

For graph C:

Graph C is bigger than the original graph; however, it is not dilated over (0,0). This indicates dilation with a scale factor greater than 1

For graph D:

Graph D is bigger than the original graph; however, it is not only dilated but also flipped over (i.e. rotated).

<em>Hence, b and c is true</em>

Write the equation y- 6 = _5(x + 1) in<br> slope-intercept form.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

y = -5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 6 = -5 (x + 1)

distribute -5 (x + 1) by multiplying

y - 6 = -5x - 5

than add 6 to both sides

y = -5x + 1

I did something wrong could you help?
posledela

Answer:

Slope = 1/2

y-intercept = 30

Equation : y = 1/2x + 30

D. 150 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the two visible points you marked on the graph.

They are (0,30) which is also the y-intercept and (20,40).

Calculate change of y over change of x.

10/20 or 1/2

So the slope is 1/2 and the y-intercept is 30.

Therefore, using y = mx + b form, the equation is y = 1/2x + 30

Then, to find how many miles you drove if the cost was $105, we can plug in 105 for y in the equation.

105 = 1/2x + 30

75 = 1/2x

x = 150

Carmin is trying to find the equation of a line that passes through the points (-1,16) and (5,88) . Does the equation y=12x+28 w
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Yes! The equation, y = 12x + 28 , work.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through points (-1, 16) and (5, 88)

The slope of the line = change in y ÷ change in x

i.e slope = \frac{88 - 16}{5 - -1} = 12

Taking another point (x ,y) on the line;

Slope is \frac{y - 16}{x - -1} = 12

y - 16 = 12x + 12

y = 12x + 12 + 16

y = 12x + 28

So the equation, y = 12x + 28, work!
