Complete question is;

Roger and Rita each drive at a constant speed between Phoenix and San Diego. Each driver’s distance for the same section of the trip is displayed below. Who had a head start, and how many miles was the head start?

A) Rita had a 28-mile head start.

B) Roger had a 26-mile head start.

C) Roger had a 25-mile head start.

D) Rita had a 22-mile head start.

Answer:

A) Rita had a 28-mile head start.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that Roger travelled a distance of 60 miles

And that;

Rita travelled a distance of 32 miles

We are told that they travelled between Phoenix and San Diego.

Thus, it means that if they have different distances but covered same section of the trip, it means the one with higher distance started before the section of the trip.

Thus, it means that Rita had a head start of Roger since she covered only 32 miles.

Thus;

Rita had a head start of; 60 - 32 = 28 miles

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Square = 2 x 2 = 4

The Small triangle is half of the square so 4 divided by 2 is 2.

The big triangle 4 x 2 = 8 divided by 2 is 4.

So,

4 + 2 + 4 = 10

Answer:

Perimeter = 32.44 units

Area = 30 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Vertices

A(2,8), B(16,2) and C(6,2)

WE have to determine the lengths of all sides before finding the perimeter and area.

The formula of modulus is:

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}- x_{1})^{2} +(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}\\AB=\sqrt{(16-2)^{2} +(2-8)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{(14)^{2} +(-6)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{196+36}\\ =\sqrt{232}\\=15.23\\\\BC=\sqrt{(6-16)^{2} +(2-2)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{(-10)^{2} +(0)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{100+0}\\ =\sqrt{100}\\=10\\\\AC=\sqrt{(6-2)^{2} +(2-8)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{(4)^{2} +(-6)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{16+36}\\ =\sqrt{52}\\=7.21\\\\

So the perimeter is:

Perimeter=AB+BC+AC\\=15.23+10+7.21\\=32.44\ units

Using hero's formula,

s=\frac{perimeter}{2}\\s=\frac{32.44}{2}\\ s=16.22\\Area=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\\=\sqrt{16.22(16.22-15.23)(16.22-10)(16.22-7.21)}\\=\sqrt{(16.22)(0.99)(6.22)(9.01)}\\=\sqrt{899.91}\\=29.99\ square\ units

Rounding off will give us 30 square units ..
