Answer: A composite figure is made up of simple geometric shapes. To find the area of a composite figure or other irregular-shaped figure, divide it into simple, non overlapping figures. Find the area of each simpler figure, and then add the areas together to find the total area of the composite figure.

Calculate the distance between the points P=(-1, -1) and L=(6, -9) in the coordinate plane.
Over [174]

Answer:

≈ 10.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2    }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = P(- 1, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = L(6, - 9)

d = \sqrt{(6-(-1))^2+(-9-(-1))^2}

   = \sqrt{(6+1)^2+(-9+1)^2}

   = \sqrt{7^2+(-8)^2}

   = \sqrt{49+64}

   = \sqrt{113} ≈ 10.63 ( to the nearest hundredth )

A salesperson earns $450.20 per week plus 15% of her weekly sales. Which of the following describes the sales necessary for the
lapo4ka [179]
First we must construct an equation to model the problem. (In this case we will use an inequality instead) This is what I came up with:
         450.20+0.15s>=600.10

This equation shows how if her base earnings ($450.20) are added to 15% of her sales, represented by s, then the total will be greater than or equal to $600.10
Next, we simply solve for s. (steps shown below)

1) 450.20+0.15s>=600.10 (simply restating the inequality)
2) 0.15s>=149.90 (here I isolated the variable)
3)0.15s/0.15>=149.90/0.15 (Finally I solve for s by dividing both sides by 0.15, this will isolate s on the left and leave the answer on the right)
4) s>=999.33... (here I found the total sales the salesperson would need to reach his/her goal of earning a minimum of $600.10; the 3's after the decimal are repeating so in the next step I will round up to the nearest hundredth (b/c this is what money is rounded to and if I round down he/she would make less than her goal. This means i must round up.))
5) s>=999.34 (simple rounding; once again I rounded up b/c rounding down would slightly bring the total earnings to less than the goal)

<u>Therefore, the salesperson would need his/her sales to be $999.34 in order for his/her total earnings for the week to be at least $600.10</u> (greater than or equal to $600.10)

<u>Hope this helped!</u>

ASAP GUYS PLEASE I NEED UR HELP THIS IS SO HARD<br> Solve: 5 − 7 ( z + 1 ) = 7 ( − 9 − 3 z )
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

-\frac{61}{14}

Step-by-step explanation:

Question: 5 - 7(z+1) = 7(-9-3z)

We multiply the number in front of the bracket first, since that is multiplication.

--> 5 -7z -7 = -63 - 21z

--> -7z -2 = -63 - 21z

Now, we move all the z and all the numbers to each side.

--> -7z +21z = -63 +2

--> 14z = -61

--> z = -61/14

This cannot be simplified further, so z is -61/14.
