A figure has four sides that are the same length and no right angles. Based on this information, what is the most specific name

PLEASE HELP!!! Calculate the length of segment with the midpoint.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

17. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A segment going from an endpoint to the midpoint of the original segment is going to be 1/2 of the original segment.

AM = 1/2 AB

2. You know that the length of AM is 5, so plug that in a solve algebraically

5 = 1/2 AB

(2)5 = (2) 1/2 AB

10 = AB

Answer:

18. 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two segments spanning from the original segment's midpoint to the end equals the length of the original segment. Because the midpoint is exactly in the middle of the original segment, the two other segments should equal each other.

1. You need to first find the length of the two segments by setting them equal to each other and plugging in their equations.

5x = x+12

2. Solve algebraically

5x = x+12

4x = 12

x = 3

3. Plug z into the equations for each segment and add them together.

RM = 5(3) MS = (3)+12

RM = 15 MS = 15

15+15 = 30

This is about fractions i have three questions: 1} subtract 3 1/4 from 4 2/3 2}simplify 7 3/4 divided by 8/62 3} subtract the su

Scrat [10]

Answer:

1 5/12
60 1/16
11/35

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 4 2/3 - 3 1/4 = (4 -3) +(2/3 -1/4) = 1 + (8/12 -3/12) = 1 5/12

__

2) (7 3/4)/(8/62) = (31/4)(62/8) = (31/4)(31/4) = 961/16 = 60 1/16

__

3) (2 5/7 +3 2/3) -(4 2/3 +1 2/5) = (2 + 3 -4 -1) +(5/7 +2/3 -2/3 -2/5)

= 5/7 -2/5 = (25 -14)/35 = 11/35

Notes on arithmetic with fractions

It can be helpful to make use of a common denominator when adding or subtracting fractions. Your knowledge of multiplication tables can help you find a suitable common denominator. Without too much effort, you can use the product of denominators as the common denominator, though doing that may require you to reduce the resulting fraction.

__

If you need a formula for addition or subtraction of fractions, this is it:

a/b + c/d = (ad +bc)/(bd)

A sign can be attached to any of these numbers, so that ...

a/b - c/d = (ad -bc)/(bd)

Using this formula is how we worked problem 3. It is essentially the same as rewriting each fraction to use the common denominator bd:

a/b = ad/(bd)

c/d = bc/(bd)

__

Of course, division of fractions (or any sort of division, actually) is the same as multiplying by the inverse (reciprocal) of the denominator. The mantra "invert and multiply" can be a useful reminder of this.

Two car washes charge a basic fee plus a fee based on the number of extras that

mezya [45]

Answer:

a. The first car wash charges more for the basic fee

b. 6 extras must be chosen for the total cost to be the same

Explanation:

The complete question is shown in the attached diagram

The general form of the linear equation is:

y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

The y-intercept represents the initial value which, in the given problem, is the basic fee

For the first car wash, we are given the equation:

y₁ = x + 9

Now, we will start by getting the equation for the second car wash:

1- getting the slope:

$m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} =\frac{12-9}{4-2}=1.5$

The equation now is: y = 1.5x+c

2- getting the y-intercept:

To get the y-intercept, we will simply choose a point, substitute with it in the equation from 1 and solve for c. I will use point (2,9)

y = 1.5 x + c

9 = 1.5 (2) + c ............> c = 6

The equation for the second car wash is:

y₂ = 1.5x + 6

Part 1:

As mentioned above, the y-intercept represents the basic fee

For the first car wash:

y₁ = x + 9 ................> The basic fee is $9

For the second car wash:

y₂ = 1.5x + 6 ..............> The basic fee is $6

It is clear that the basic fee for the first car wash charges more for the basic fee

Part 2:

In both equations, x represents the number of extras. We want the total cost to be the same. So, we will simply equate y₁ and y₂ and solve for x

x + 9 = 1.5x + 6

1.5x - x = 9 - 6

0.5x = 3

x = 6

Let's verify:

For x = 6:

y₁ = x + 9 = 6 + 9 = $15

y₂ = 1.5x + 6 = 1.5(6) + 6 = $15

Total cost is the same. This means that 6 extras must be chosen for the total cost to be the same

Hope this helps :)

Robbie was given $80 to spend at the Fair. His admission to the park costs $15.50 and each ride cost $5. He anticipates the cost

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

7 or 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Robbie was given $80.

His admission costs $15.50

80 - 15.50 = $64.50

He anticipates the cost of food at the fair will be $25.

64.50 - 25 = $39.50

What is the maximum number of rides he can take at the Fair?

(Total $ after admission and cost of food/ ride cost)

$39.50 / $5 = 7.9
