1 answer:
Refer to the diagram shown below.
The exit for Freestone is built midway between Roseville and Edgewood,
therefore the distance from O to the new exit is
(1/2)*(33+55) = 44 mi.
Let x = distance from Midtown to the new exit.
Because the distance from O to the new exit is equal to (x + 17), therefore
x + 17 = 44
x = 44 - 17 = 27 mi.

Given:
The point is T(-3,7).
To find:
The image T' after .
Solution:
, it means reflection across x-axis is followed by reflection across y-axis.
If a point is reflected across the x-axis, then
Then point is reflected across the y-axis. So,
Therefore, the coordinates of point T' are (3,-7).
Answer:
- <u>65%</u>
Explanation:
Please, see attached the chart corresponding to this question.
The<em> chart</em> is a pie chart that shows the percentage composition of the <em>expenses </em>and uses color to identify each item.
The items corresponding to<em> taxes</em> are:
- <em>Federal tax: 29%</em>
- <em>State tax: 6%</em>
All the other expenses are not taxes.
Add the two items that are taxes: 29% + 6% = 35%.
Hence, the expenses that are not taxes can be calculated by difference:
- 100% - 35% = 65%.
