A roller coaster at an amusement park rises to a height of 196 feet above the ground. So far, it has risen 36% of this height. T

o estimate the height the roller coaster has risen so far, Jake did the following.
1. Rounded 36% to 40%
2. Rounded 196 to 200
3. 10% of 200 is 20
4. 20 (4) = 80
5. 36% of 196 is about 80

However, Jake’s estimate was too high by almost 10 feet. Why was his estimate off by so much?

He made a computation error.

He rounded the percent up to 40% and the number up to 200.

He made a rounding error, and should have rounded 196 down to 100.

He should have rounded the percent down to 30% and the number down to 190.

How do I solve a+18=7a ?
Slav-nsk [51]
a+18=7a \ \ \ |\hbox{subtract 7a from both sides} \\
-6a+18=0 \ \ \ |\hbox{subtract 18 from both sides} \\
-6a=-18 \ \ \ |\hbox{divide both sides by (-6)} \\
a=3

We can use elimination for these set of systems.
First, we need to set up our variables.
Belts=b
Hats=h
Now, the situation is 6 belts and 8 hats for $140. The situation after is 9 belts and 6 hats for $132.
Let’s set up our system of equations.
6b+8h=140
9b+6h=132
We need to eliminate a variable. Since b has coefficients of 6 and 9, we can easily eliminate b by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom by -2.
18b+24h=420
-18b-12h=-264
Now let’s add.
12h=156
Let’s divide to get h by itself.
156/12=13=h
So a hat costs $13. We need to put in 13 for one of the equations so we can find the cost of a belt.
9b+6(13)=132
9b+78=132
We need b by itself.
9b=54
54/9=6
Belts are $6
We can also use the first equation to check our answers.
6(6)+8(13)
36+104
140.
So, the price of a belt is $6 while the price of a hat is $13.

Jordan wants to prove △PQR≅△STU using a sequence of rigid motions. This is Jordan's proof. Translate △PQR to get △P'Q'R' with R'
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

A. △P'Q'R' does not equal △P''Q''R''.

B. Reflecting across UT would change the orientation of the figure.

C. The sequence does not include a reflection that exchanges U and S.

D. Rotating about point U is not a rigid motion because it changes the orientation of the figure.

E. Translating point R' to Q' is a non-invertible transformation because it changes the location of P'.

(D) Rotating about U is not a rigid motion because it changes the orientation of the figure. [I think D is an incorrect answer choice.]

Step-by-step explanation:

Proof No.1

Jordan wants to prove △PQR≅△STU using a sequence of rigid motions. This is Jordan's proof. Translate △PQR to get △P'Q'R' with R'=U. Then rotate △P'Q'R' about point U to get △P''Q''R''. Since translation and rotation preserve distance, R''Q''=RQ=UT, and Q''=T. Reflect △P''Q''R'' across UT to get △P'''Q'''R''. Since reflection preserves distance, P'''R'''=PR=US, and P'''=S. A sequence of rigid motions maps △PQR onto △STU, so △PQR≅△STU.

Proof No.2

Jordan wants to prove △PQR≅△STU using a sequence of rigid motions. This is Jordan's proof. Translate △PQR to get △P'Q'R' with R'=U. Then rotate △P'Q'R about point U to get △P''Q''R'' so that R''Q'' and UT coincide. Since translation and rotation preserve distance, R''Q''=RQ=UT, and Q''=T. Reflect △P''Q''R'' across UT to get △P'''Q'''R''. Since reflection preserves distance, P'''R'''=PR=US, and P'''=S. A sequence of rigid motions maps △PQR onto △STU, so △PQR≅△STU.
