Answer:

16 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you go! 4 oranges is 6 fluid ounces so, 6 x 4 = 24 so you need for more bunches that have 4 in them. Therefore you must say that 4 x 4 = 16

What is the perimeter of the trapezoid with vertices Q(8, 8), R(14, 16), S(20, 16), and T(22, 8)? Round to the nearest hundredth

uysha [10]

Answer:

The perimeter of the trapezoid is $38.25\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter of the trapezoid is the sum of its four side lengths

so

In this problem

$P=QR+RS+ST+QT$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have

$Q(8, 8), R(14, 16), S(20, 16),T(22, 8)$

step 1

Find the distance QR

$Q(8, 8), R(14, 16)$

substitute the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(16-8)^{2}+(14-8)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{100}$

$QR=10\ units$

step 2

Find the distance RS

$R(14, 16), S(20, 16)$

substitute the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(16-16)^{2}+(20-14)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{36}$

$RS=6\ units$

step 3

Find the distance ST

$S(20, 16),T(22, 8)$

substitute the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(8-16)^{2}+(22-20)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-8)^{2}+(2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{68}$

$ST=8.25\ units$

step 4

Find the distance QT

$Q(8, 8),T(22, 8)$

substitute the values in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(8-8)^{2}+(22-8)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(14)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{196}$

$QT=14\ units$

step 5

Find the perimeter

$P=10+6+8.25+14=38.25\ units$

m∠RSW = 2x + 16; m∠WSV = 3x + 2 m∠UST = 2x; m∠VSU = m∠UST Find m∠WSV. please answer this geotemrty is really hard

stepladder [879]

Answer: 56 degree

Explanation:

2x + 16 + 3x + 2 + 2x + 2x = 180 (straight angle)

9x + 18 = 180
9x = 162
x = 162/9
x = 18

But WSV = 3x + 2

And x = 18

=> 3(18) + 2
=> 54 + 2 = 56

A race car is driven by a professional driver at 99 . What is this speed in and ? 1 mile = 1.61 kilometers 1 hour = 60 minutes E

Lena [83]

Let us assume that the given speed is in miles per hour.

A race car is driven by a professional driver at 99 mph.

We have to find the speed in kilometer per hour and kilometer per minutes

As 1 mile = 1.61 km

So, 99 miles = $99\times1.61=159.39$ kmph

1 km per hour = 0.0166 km per minute

So, 159.39 kmph = $159.39\times0.0166=2.6458$ km per minute

Hence, The speed is equivalent to 159.39 kilometers /hour, or 2.645 kilometers/minutes .
