There are about 1.61 kilometers in 1 mile. Let LaTeX: xx represent a distance measured in kilometers and LaTeX: yy represent the

same distance measured in miles. Write two equations that relate a distance measured in kilometers and the same distance measured in miles.

Answer:

1.61 x km= y miles  

x km= y/ 1.61 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance in Kilometers  and y represent the distance in miles then

1.61 x km= y miles

Now if we have 5 miles then

1.61(5) km = 5miles

8.05 km = 5 miles

Similarly if we want to express 1 km in miles the equation would be

x km= y/ 1.61 miles

So for 5 km the miles would be

5 km = 5/1.61 miles

5 km = 3.1055 miles

In the trapezoid ABCD ( AB ∥ CD ) point M∈ AD , so that AM:MD=3:5. Line l ∥ AB and going trough point M intersects diagonal AC a
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

BC:BN=8:3

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a trapezoid and there is a point m which belongs to AD such that AM:MD=3:5.Line "l" parallel to AB intersects the diagonal AC at p and BD at N.

Now, we know that the parallel lines divide the transversal into the segments with equal ratio, therefore, BN:NC=AM:MD

But, BC= BN+NC

Therefore, BC:BN=(BN+NC):BN

⇒BC:BN=(3+5):3

⇒BC:BN=8:3

A waitress works 1.75 hours less in the afternoon than in the evening. If she works 5      1/8
gayaneshka [121]
Let x be the number of hours that the waitress works in the evening.

We know for our problem that she works 5 \frac{1}{8} in the afternoon and that she works <span>1.75 hours less in the afternoon than in the evening, so:
</span>x=5 \frac{1}{8} -1.75
<span>Since </span>\frac{1}{8} =0.125, we can rewrite our expression:
x=5.125-1.75
x=3.375

We can conclude that she works 3.375 hours in the evening, or expressed as a mixed fraction: 3 \frac{3}{8} hours.

What is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 10 and passes through the point (–5, 1)? Check all that ap
Bond [772]

So the right options are:

y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1

2x+5y = -5

y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)

Further explanation:

Given equation of line is:

2x+5y=10

We have to convert it into point-slope form

2x+5y=10\\5y=-2x+10\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{10}{5}\\y=-\frac{2}{5}x+2

The co-efficient of x is the slope of the line

So,

m= -\frac{2}{5}

As the required line is parallel to given line, it will also have same slope.

Let m1 be the slope of required line

Then the line will be:

y=m_1x+b

Putting the value of slope

y=\frac{2}{5}x+b

Putting (-5,1) in the equation to find the value of b

1=-\frac{2}{5}(-5)+b\\1=2+b\\b=1-2\\b=-1

Putting the values of slope and b in equation

y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1

Multiplying the whole equation by 5 will give us:

5y = -2x-5

2x+5y = -5

Another form of equation of line is Point-slope form

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Putting the values of slope and point in the equation, we get

y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)

So the right options are:

y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1

2x+5y = -5

y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)

Emma borrowed $300 to repair her car. the finance (interest) charge on the loan was $20, and the term on the loan was 14 days. w
Murrr4er [49]
Given:
loan amount = 300
finance charge = 20
term = 14 days.

To solve for APR.
<span>1. Divide the finance charge by the loan amount.
20/300 = 0.0667

2. Multiply the result by 365. 
0.0667 x 365 = 24.35

3. Divide the result by the term of the loan.
24.35/14 = 1.74 (APR in decimal format)
<span>
4. Multiply the result by 100.
1.74 x 100 = 174% APR</span></span>
