You and your friend enjoy riding your bicycles. Today is a beautiful sunny day, so the two of you are taking a long ride out in

the country side. Leaving your home in Sunshine, you ride 6 miles due west to the town of Happyville, where you turn south and ride 8 miles to the town of Crimson. When the sun begins to go down, you decide that it is time to start for home. There is a road that goes directly from Crimson back to Sunshine. If you want to take the shortest route home, do you take this new road, or do you go back the way you came? Justify your decision. How much further would the longer route be than the shorter route? Assume all roads are straight.

Answer:

1)hypotenuse = straight home

sqrt(36+64) = 10

straight is 10 miles

same way is 6+8 = 14 miles

(2) hypotenuse of 3,4 5 right triangle is 5

5*6 = 30

plus enough for the knots :)

(3)diagonal (hypotenuse) length is the longest

sqrt (42^2 + 84^2) = 93.9, so no

What is the range of the function f(x) = 4x + 9, given the domain D = {-4, -2, 0, 2}?
Nat2105 [25]
Hello :
f(-4) = 4(-4)+9 = -7
f(-2) = 4(-2)+9 = 1
f(0) = 4(0)+9 = 9
f(2) = 4(2)+9 = 17
the range of the function f(x) = 4x + 9 is : <span>D' = {-7, 1, 9, 17}</span>

A customer buys 15.5 cheese pizzas which are $10.50 each. What is the total? Round it to the nearest hundredth.
Cerrena [4.2K]
First of all, how do you buy exactly 15.5 pizzas?
what is a 0.5 pizza?

anyway

cost=cost per pizza times number of pizzas
cost per pizza=10.50
number of pizzas=15.5

cost=10.50 times 15.5
cost=162.75

total cost is $162.75

Can someone help me find the area of the following figure
ExtremeBDS [4]
1. The area of the full rectangle is 21 * 28 = 588. We will need this later. 

Like you drew, there is an imaginary triangle missing. We can find the dimensions of it by subtracting from the given information. The shorter leg of it is 21 - 12 = 9, the longer leg is 28 - 14 = 14.

Now we find the area of the triangle. Area of a triangle is 1/2 * base * height. So 1/2 * 9 * 14 = 1/2 * 126 = 63. 

Now we do the full area of 588 minus the area of the missing triangle piece. 

588 - 63 = 525 ft²

2. Do the area of the rectangle and then this time add on the area of the triangle. 7 * 15 = 105. Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 2 * 7 = 1/2 * 14 = 7. 

105 + 7 = 112 in²
