Answer: 16 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The car used 1/64 gallons to travel 1/4 miles. To find out how many miles the car can travel using 1 gallon, use direct proportion:

1/64 gallons : 1/4 miles

1 gallon : x miles

Cross multiply:

1/64x = 1/4

x = 1/4 ÷ 1/64

= 1/4 * 64/1

= 16 miles

On one gallon of gas, the car can travel 16 miles.

On a coordinate plane, kite W X Y Z is shown. Point W is at (negative 3, 3), point X is at (2, 3), point Y is at (4, negative 4)

Answer:

$P = 10 + 2\sqrt{53}$ units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Kite WXYZ

W (-3, 3), X (2, 3),

Y (4, -4), Z (-3, -2)

Required

Determine perimeter of the kite

First, we need to determine lengths of sides WX, XY, YZ and ZW using distance formula;

$d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

For WX:

$(x_1, y_1)\ (x_2,y_2) = (-3, 3),\ (2, 3)$

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

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

$WX = \sqrt{25}$

$WX = 5$

For XY:

$(x_1, y_1)\ (x_2,y_2) = (2, 3)\ (4,-4)$

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

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

$XY = \sqrt{-2^2 + 7^2}$

$XY = \sqrt{4 + 49}$

$XY = \sqrt{53}$

For YZ:

$(x_1, y_1)\ (x_2,y_2) = (4,-4)\ (-3, -2)$

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

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

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

$YZ = \sqrt{49 + 4}$

$YZ = \sqrt{53}$

For ZW:

$(x_1, y_1)\ (x_2,y_2) = (-3, -2)\ (-3, 3)$

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

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

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

$ZW = \sqrt{0 + 25}$

$ZW = \sqrt{25}$

$ZW = 5$

The Perimeter (P) is as follows:

$P = WX + XY + YZ + ZW$

$P = 5 + \sqrt{53} + \sqrt{53} + 5$

$P = 5 + 5 + \sqrt{53} + \sqrt{53}$

$P = 10 + 2\sqrt{53}$ units

Jaime has 6 quarters and some dimes in his pocket . The total value of the coins in 4.50. How many dimes does he have in his poc

Alexxandr [17]

Hi there! :)

<u>Answer:</u>

Jaime has 30 dimes in his pocket.

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, you need to know that:

A <em>quarter</em> is equal to = <u>$0.25</u>

A <em>dime</em> is equal to = $0.10

Jaime has 6 quarters, which means that he has 6 times $0.25:

6 × 0.25 = <u>$1.50</u>

Jaime has a total of $4.50 → Subtract the amout of money represented by the quarters and you'll be left with the amout of money represented by the dimes:

4.50 - 1.50 = <u>$3</u>

Jaime has $3 worth of dimes in his pocket. In order to know how many dimes $3 represents, you'll need to divide "3" by 0.10, which is what 1 dime is worth:

3 ÷ 0.10 = <u>30</u> → YOUR ANSWER

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
