Answer:

Total distance:

  • d=11/15 miles or 0.73 miles          

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Alison walks 2/5 miles from her house to the mailbox.
  • Then she walks 1/3 mile to the bus stop.

Thus, the total distance can be calculated by adding the miles

i.e.

d=\:\frac{2}{5}+\frac{1}{3}

LCM of 5,3 is 15

   =\frac{6}{15}+\frac{5}{15}

\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{c}+\frac{b}{c}=\frac{a+b}{c}

  =\frac{6+5}{15}    

  =\frac{11}{15}

   =\:0.73  miles

Thus,

Total distance:

  • d=11/15 miles or 0.73 miles

Find the distance between each pair of points. round your answer to the nearest tenth.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

5.4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between each pair of points, we use the distance formula, which is:

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} -y_{1})^2  }

So we have

x_{1} = 2\\ x_{2} = 4\\y_{1} = 8\\y_{2}=3

When we plug in the values into the formula we get:

d = \sqrt{(4-2)^2 + (3-8)^2}

d = \sqrt{4 + 25}\\ =\sqrt{29}\\ =5.4

Find x, y, and z.<br><br> Multiple choice answers are below!
labwork [276]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is B. x ≈ 4.5, y = 5, z = 9</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We will use the Pythagorean theorem for solving for x, this way:

x² = 6² - 4²

x² = 36 - 16

x² = 20

x = √20

x = 2 √5 = 4.47 ≈ 4.5

2. For solving for y, we will do it this way:

There are only two possible options: y = 5, included in answer B or y = 9 as it is defined on answer C.

If we review it carefully, we will realize that y = 9 is not accurate because as we can see in the graph y + 4 = z and in this specific case, 9 + 4 ≠ 5 but it's true that 5 + 4 = 9.

<u>Because of this reason, the correct answer is B. x ≈ 4.5, y = 5, z = 9</u>
