Answer:

Sofia is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark's statement depends on the starting point. He can be correct if they started at the 0 mile, but in this case we don't know where they started. They could had started at the 12 mile and their current position after the walking would be 16 miles.

On the other hand, Sofia's statement doesn't depend on where they started. She refers to how much they walked, not to where they are after the walking. Since they stopped after 4 non-stopping miles, their displacement was exactly 4 miles. So Sofia is correct.

Willie and his brothers went to TGI Mondays. Their order consisted of 3 cheeseburgers at $8.75 each, a fish sandwich for $6.75,
Sladkaya [172]

<u>Answer:</u>$68.69

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Calculation of bill value

Cheeseburgers  =    26.25

(8.75 x 3)

Fish Sandwich    =     6.75

Pizza                    =    14.99

Sweet Tea

(4 x 2.09)              =    8.36

Total of items        =  56.35

Sales tax on food  =   3.381

(56.35 x 6%)          

Total bill value       = 59.731

Calculation of tips

Bill value x 15%

=59.731 x 15%

Tips paid=8.95965

Calculation of meals cost

Total meal cost = Bill value + tips

=59.731+8.95965

=$68.69

Total meal cost is $68.69

What method would you choose to solve the equation 2x2 – 7 = 9? Explain why you chose this method.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

I would add 7 to get ...

... 2x² = 16

then divide by 2 to get

... x² = 8

Now, I would take the square root, recognizing that both positive and negative values will solve the problem.

... x = ±√8

The root can be simplified, so we have ...

... x = ±2√2

_____

The above method seemed the most obvious method to me. One could use the quadratic formula, but that seems to involve more operations.

... 2x² -16 = 0 . . . . subtract 9

... x = (-0 ± √(0² -4·2·(-16)))/(2·2) . . . . put the coefficients into the formula

... x = ±(√128)/4 = ±√8 = ±2√2 . . . . . simplify the result
