Answer:
16.9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Sometimes the easiest way to work these problems is to get a little help from technology. The GeoGebra program/app can tell you the length of a "polyline", but it takes an extra segment to complete the perimeter. It shows the perimeter to be ...
14.87 + 2 = 16.87 ≈ 16.9 . . . units
_____
The distance formula can be used to find the lengths of individual segments. It tells you ...
d = √((Δx)² +(Δy)²)
where Δx and Δy are the differences between x- and y-coordinates of the segment end points.
If the segments are labeled A, B, C, D, E in order, the distances are ...
AB = √(5²+1²) = √26 ≈ 5.099
BC = √(1²+3²) = √10 ≈ 3.162
CD = Δx = 3
DE = √(3²+2²) = √13 ≈ 3.606
EA = Δy = 2
Then the perimeter is ...
P = AB +BC +CD +DE +EA = 5.099 +3.162 +3 +3.606 +2 = 16.867
P ≈ 16.9
9 and 5/8, because 8 can go into 77, 9 times. That is 72 and, 77 subtract 72 is 5 so, 5/8. Then the answer would be 9 and 5/8 which is not simplified.
Answer:
0.625N
Step-by-step explanation:
0.50N
0.80M = 0.50N, so M = ------------
0.80
and so:
0.50N
N*M = N*------------ = (5/8)N, or 0.625N
0.80
We can solve this by multiplying those two numbers but we place them in improper fraction.
2 1/2 x 2 1/4
becomes
5/2 x 9/4
for fraction multiplication, just multiply numerator by numerator and denominator by denominator
5/2 x 9/4 = 45/8
we can simplify this into mixed fraction while numbers in whole numbers and remainder in numerator
5 5/8 is the answer
