Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5y = 3 ................ (i)

kx + 15y = 9................(ii)

Dividing eqn (ii) by 3, we get,

k/3 x + 5y = 3.............(iii)

Subtracting eqn (iii) by eqn (i), we get,

-4x - k/3 x = 0

or, -(4 - k/3 )x = 0

or, 4 - k/3 = 0/x

or, 4 - k/3 = 0

or, 4 = k/3

or, k = 4*3

:. k = 12 (Ans)

Clara created a coordinate grid of her city. The bowling alley is located at (10, 12) and the skating rink is located at (-6, -4

yulyashka [42]

First we need to know the coordinates of the movie theater, we can do this applying the midpoint formula:

$\begin{gathered} P(BA,SR)=(\frac{10-6}{2},\frac{12-4}{2})\text{ = (}\frac{4}{2},\frac{8}{2}) \\ \Rightarrow P(BA,SR)=(2,4) \end{gathered}$

We have that the movie theater is located at (2,4). Now we use this coordinates to find the location of Clara's house using again the midpoint formula:

$\begin{gathered} P(MT,SR)=(\frac{-6+2}{2},\frac{4-4}{2})=(-\frac{4}{2},0) \\ \Rightarrow P(MT,SR)=(-2,0) \end{gathered}$

Therefore, Clara's house is located at (-2,0)

Answer:

the first option

Step-by-step explanation:

solution:

distance: d=1/4 lc (because is a quarter of a circle)

length of the circumference: lc=2 pi r

pi: constant=3.14

radius of the circle: r=80 feet

replacing pi and r in the formula of lc:

lc=2 pi r

lc=2 (3.14) (80 feet)

lc=502.4 feet

replacing lc in the formula of d:

d=1/4 lc

d=1/4 (502.4 feet)

d=502.4/4 feet

d=125.6 feet
