Her next step is to repeat the last process of drawing those two arcs. However, they will be mirrored since she swapped endpoints.
Check out the diagram below. Figure 1 is what she already has. Figure 2 is what happens after completing the next step. The red and blue arcs intersect to help form the endpoints of the perpendicular bisector. I used GeoGebra to make the diagrams.
All we have to do here is divide how much she paid ($1.15) by how many pounds of dried fruit she bought (2.5 pounds)
1.15 ÷ 2.5 = 0.46
Therefore each pound costs $0.46
Hope this helps

Answer:
200 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
First, set up the equations.
plan 1: initial fee of $55.96, $0.12 per mile
plan 2: initial fee of $63.96, $0.08 per mile
We want to know at what distance will the cost be the same. So, set the equations equal to each other.
0.12x + 55.96 = 0.08x + 63.96
Combine the variables.
0.04x + 55.96 = 63.96
Combine the constants.
0.04x = 8
Divide by 0.04 to isolate x.
x = 200 miles
Check by plugging x back into each equation.
y = 0.12(200) + 55.96
y = 24 + 55.96
y = $79.96
y = 0.08(200) + 63.96
y = 16 + 63.96
y = $79.96
You are correct!
Answer:
The dog's running area is approximately 942 feet².
Step-by-step explanation:
The dog is leashed to a fixed point, the leash has a length of 20 ft, therefore he can rotate around that point at the maximum distance equal to the length of the leash. This pattern forms a circle, but there is an obstruction, which is the corner of the house. This obstruction takes an arc of the original circle, so the running area of the dog is the area of the whole circle minus the area of the arc formed by the corner of the house.

The dog's running area is approximately 942 feet².
