Answer:

10 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

First = 6\ blocks

Second = 8\ blocks east

Required

Determine the shortest possible distance

To better explain my solution, I've added an attachment that illustrates her movement.

Using the attachment as a point of reference, the shortest distance is calculated by calculating the length of the hypotenuse using Pythagoras theorem.

So, we have:

x^2 = 6^2 + 8^2

x^2 = 36 + 64

x^2 =100

Take positive square root of both sides

x = \sqrt{ 100

x = 10

Sienna has $8 and is saving $3 per week. Jacob has $6 and is saving $4 per week. Which model represents the equation that can de
8090 [49]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Sienna has $8 denotes the unit blocks of x tiles. So, she saved $3 per week.

This implies that:

8x + 3(1) = 8x + 3

Also,

If Jacob as well had $6 which implies 6x unit block of tiles while he saved $4;

i.e.

6(x) + 4(1) = 6x + 4

So;

the model that can determine when Sienna will have the same amount as Jacob is:

8x + 3 = 6x + 4

Sammy buys 5 pounds of oranges for 7.50 at this rate how much would 8 pounds of oranges cost
Nadusha1986 [10]

The cost of 8 pounds of oranges based on the total cost of 5 pounds bought is 12.00

What is the cost for a pound of oranges?

The cost of a pound of oranges based on the rate at which 5 pounds were bought and 8 pounds would also be bought is determined as the amount paid for 5 pounds of oranges divided by the number of pounds of oranges bought

cost per pound of oranges=cost of 5 pounds/5 pounds

cost per pound of oranges=7.50/5

cost per pound of oranges=1.50

Based on the 1.50 per pound, the cost of 8 pounds is the cost per pound multiplied by 8 pounds

cost of 8 pounds of oranges=1.50*8pounds

cost of 8 pounds of oranges=12.00
