Answer:

Percentage increase in the cost of his train ticket = 3% (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of annual ticket paid by Patrick last year = £2,534

Cost of annual ticket paid by Patrick current year = £2,612

Find:

Percentage increase in the cost of his train ticket

Computation:

Percentage increase = [(Current - Base) / Base]100

Percentage increase in the cost of his train ticket = [(2,612 - 2,534) / 2,534]100

Percentage increase in the cost of his train ticket = [(78) / 2,534]100

Percentage increase in the cost of his train ticket = [0.03078]100

Percentage increase in the cost of his train ticket = 3.078

Percentage increase in the cost of his train ticket = 3% (Approx.)

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form.<br> (-1,9) and (4, -3)
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

GIVEN BY POINTS :-

( -1, 9) , ( 4 , -3)

Here ,

\bullet  \: \:  x _{1} = - 1 \\ \bullet \: \:  x _{2} = 4 \\ \bullet \: \:   y _{1} = 9 \\ \bullet \: \:    y _{2} =  - 3 \\

Using Distance formula :

=  >  \sf d = \sqrt{( {x _{2} - x _{1}) }^{2} + {( {y _{2} - y _{1}) }^{2} } } \\ \\  =  > \sf  d = \sqrt{ ({ 4  + 1)}^{2} + { ( - 3 - 9)}^{2} } \\  \\ =  >  \sf d = \sqrt{ {5}^{2} + {( - 12)}^{2} }  \\ \\  =  > \sf d = \sqrt{25 + 144}  \\ \\  =  > \sf d = \sqrt{169}  \\ \\ =  > \boxed{ \sf{  d = 13\:units }}\\

can someone help me understand this, please? For some reason my answer is correct but I need to understand how did I found the c
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer with step-by-step explanation:

The way the question is worded, this actually shouldn't be correct. The correct answer should be 3:4.

Because the trapezoids are similar, we can find the ratio of their perimeters by actually just finding the ratio of their sides.

Why?

By definition, the corresponding sides of a polygon are in a constant proportion. The perimeter is simply the sum of all sides of the polygon. Since we're just adding the sides, the proportion will still be maintained.

Therefore, we'll just need to ratio of their corresponding sides. The only two corresponding sides that are marked are \overline{RS} and \overline{AB}.

The ratio of \overline{RS}:\overline{AB} is 18:24\implies \boxed{3:4}.

The reason why it ideally should be 3:4 and not 4:3 is because the question states RTSU\sim ABCD, which mentions RSTU first, so our answer should follow this respective order. I believe you were marked right anyways because the specific order is not specified, but generally, you want to give your answer respectively by default.
