Answer:

$8.85

Step-by-step explanation:

This a question of direct variation, so we can make out a relationship between the two factors. 12 is 2/3 of 18, so the cost of 12 would also be 2/3 of the cost of 18. We can now make an equation to solve.

$\frac{2}{3} x=5.9\\2x=17.7\\x=8.85$

I answered the rest of my questions but this one is confusing me

Gwar [14]

Answer:

the answer is 36ft by 48ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find the measurements of the green squares. Given the drawing is to scale we can say that each green square has equivalent measurements. Since there are 144 feet on each side of the original drawing, and 12 green squares on each side as well, then we need to divide 144 by 12 to find the measurements of one square. 144/12=12. the green squares are each 12ft by 12ft. to find the measurement of the jungle gym, we see how many green squares are on each side (there are 3 and 4) then multiply that number by 12. 4*12 I 48, and 3*12 is 36. Hence the measurements of 36ft by 48ft.

Identify the polygon with vertices A(5,0), B(2,4), C(−2,1), and D(1,−3), and then find the perimeter and area of the polygon. HE

inn [45]

Answer:

Part 1) The polygon is a square

Part 2) The perimeter is equal to $20\ units$

Part 3) The area is equal to $25\ units^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$A(5,0), B(2,4), C(-2,1),D(1,-3)$

Plot the points

see the attached figure

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

Find the distance AB

$A(5,0),B(2,4)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(4-0)^{2}+(2-5)^{2}}$

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

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$AB=5\ units$

Find the distance BC

$B(2,4), C(-2,1)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(1-4)^{2}+(-2-2)^{2}}$

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

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$BC=5\ units$

Find the distance CD

$C(-2,1),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-1)^{2}+(1+2)^{2}}$

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

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$CD=5\ units$

Find the distance AD

$A(5,0),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-0)^{2}+(1-5)^{2}}$

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

$d=\sqrt{25}$

$AD=5\ units$

we have that

AB=BC=CD=AD

Find the distance BD (diagonal)

$B(2,4),D(1,-3)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3-4)^{2}+(1-2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-7)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$BD=\sqrt{50}\ units$

Verify if the polygon is a square

If the triangle BDA is a right triangle, then the polygon is a square

Applying the Pythagoras theorem

$BD^{2}=AD^{2}+AB^{2}$

substitute

$(\sqrt{50})^{2}=5^{2}+5^{2}$

$50=50$ -----> is true

The triangle BDA is a right triangle

therefore

The polygon is a square

Find the Area of the polygon

The area of a square is equal to

$A=b^{2}$

we have

$b=5\ units$

$A=5^{2}=25\ units^{2}$

Find the perimeter of the polygon

The perimeter of a square is equal to

$P=4b$

we have

$b=5\ units$

$P=4(5)=20\ units$

In the graphic below,

sukhopar [10]

The external angle is suplementary to the internal angle close to it. We also know that the sum of all the internal angles of the triangle are equal to 180 degrees, this means that the angle "a" is suplementary to the sum of the angles "b" and "c". Through this logic, we can conclude that since:

$\begin{gathered} \angle d=180-\angle a \\ \angle b+\angle c=180-\angle a \end{gathered}$

Then we can conclude that:

$\angle d=\angle b+\angle c$

Therefore the statement is true, the exterior angle is equal to the sum of its remote interior angles.

Let's use an example:

On this example, the external angle is 120 degrees, therefore the sum of the remote interior angles must also be equal to that. Let's try:

$x=75+45=120$

The sum of the remote interior angles is equal to the external angle.
