Answer:

Each pair of shoes cost 26$

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>find the total cost for shirts</em>

2 shirts * 12$ each

2 * 12 = 24

they spent 24$ on shirts

<em>create an equation</em>

24$ shirts + x$ shoes = 76$

24 + x = 76

<em>subtract 24 from both sides of the equation</em>

24 + x - 24 = 76 - 24

x = 76 - 24

x = 52

they bought 2 pairs of shoes that cost the same amount

52 = x + x

52 = 2x

<em>divide both sides of the equation</em>

52/2 = 2x/2

52/2 = x

26 = x

each pair of shoes cost 26$

A quadrilateral has exactly one right angle and two nonadjacent angles that each measure 105 degrees
LiRa [457]

Answer:

C) Kite

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that the polygon is a quadrilateral, meaning it has 4 sides. This rules out D, as pentagons have 5 sides. Our next clue is that this shape has <em>only one </em>right angle, ruling out A and B, because, by definition, rectangles and squares must have four 90 degree angles. We can already see that we are left with only one choice, but to confirm: a kite has 2 opposite angles of 105 degrees, like the problem states.

Therefore, the answer is C) Kite

Hope this helps!

It took Alice 6 5/6 hours to drive to her grandparents' house for Thanksgiving. On the way home, she ran into traffic and it too
salantis [7]

Time taken to drive to her grandparents house = 6 5/6  hours

We convert this mixed into improper fraction, we get = 41/6 hours

Time taken to drive to her grandparents house = 41/6 hours

Time taken to drive back = 8 2/9 hours

We convert this mixed into improper fraction, we get = 74/9 hours

Time taken to drive back = 74/9 hours

Difference between the two = 74/9 - 41/6  = (148-123)/18 = 25/18 hours = 1 7/18 hours

Therefore it took 1 7/18 hours longer to drive back.
