My neighborhood is full of one-way streets. To drive from my house to the grocery store, I have to go 1 block south, then 1 block east, then 5 blocks north, then 2 blocks east. Each block is 1/16 of a mile. How much shorter would my trip be if I could fly like a bird (that is, travel in a straight line)?
I FOUND THE distance for non bird which is 9/16. I wanna apply the pythagoreum theorum and draw a straight line to make it a triangle so I can do so but don't know where to place it
Answers
1 block south from here puts you at (0, -1/16)
1 block east from here now puts you at (1/16, -1/16)
5 blocks north from here puts you at (1/16, 4/16)
2 blocks east from here puts you at (3/16, 4/16)
You have traveled (1/16) ( 1 + 1 + 5 + 2) = 9 / 16 of a mile
The "straightline" distance between (0, 0) and (3/16, 4/16) =
sqrt [ (3/16^2 + (4/16)^2 ] = sqrt [ 25 / 256] = 5 /16 of a mile
Your trip would be [ 9/16 - 5/16 ] which equals 4/16 simplified equals 1/4 of a mile.

A bicycle manufacturing company makes a particular type of bike. Each child bike requires 4 hours to build and 4 hours to test. Each adult bike requires 6 hours to build and 4 hours to test. With the number of workers, the company is able to have up to 120 hours of building time and 100 hours of testing time for a week. If c represents child bikes and a represents adult bikes, can the company build 10 child bikes and 12 adult bikes in a week (1 point) No, because the bike order does not meet the restrictions of 4c + 6a ≤ 120 and 4c + 4a ≤ 100 No, because the bike order does not meet the restrictions of 4c + 4a ≤ 120 and 6c + 4a ≤ 100 Yes, because the bike order meets the restrictions of 4c + 6a ≤ 120 and 4c + 4a ≤ 100 Yes, because the bike order meets the restrictions of 4c + 4a ≤ 120 and 6c + 4a ≤ 100

Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
you will see, this is totally easy. so, once you understand that principle, I am sure you will agree with me that this costs more time putting it in here than just doing it yourself in the future.
you need to consider for addition and subtraction every variable combined with an exponent a different thing, a fruit for example.
you know exactly what to do, when you are being asked to add 3 apples to 2 apples, right ?
or, when are are asked to add 4 apples and 2 pears to 3 apples and 2 pears.
in the first case we simply get 5 (2+3) apples.
in the second case we get 7 (3+4) apples and 4 (2+2) pears.
and nothing else happens here.
we could call x² apples, y² pears, y³ plums, x kiwis, t strawberries, t² raspberries. and the constants could be another fruit or grams of sugar.
now, we simply combine the "fruits" that belong together. there is nothing more to this.
5x² + 3y³ - 4x² = x² - 3y³ (because 5-4 for x²)
y³ + 2y³ - 8 + 2 = 3y³ - 6 (1+2 for y³ and -8+2 constant)
9 - 3x - 4x + 2x - 12 = -5x - 3
-6t + 4t² - 6 + 7t - 4t² = t - 6 (4-4 for t², -6+7 for t)

A tire from Karens car is shown below Which is closest to the distance traveled, in feet, after 3 full rotations of the tire? use pi= 22/7
Answers
Answer:
264 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Circumference = pi x diameter
28 x 22/7 = 88 (in)
88 x 3 = 264 (in)
The closest distance traveled by Karen's car is, 18.86 feet.
What is Circle?The circle is a closed two dimensional figure , in which the set of all points is equidistance from the center.
We know that;
One rotation of the tire is equal to the circumference of the tire.
And, The formula for circumference of a circle (remember that a tire is shaped as a circle) = πd
where, π = 22/7
d = diameter
Here, The size of one revolution = 2 x 22/7
= 44/7 feet
Hence, The distance covered in one rotation of the tire is 44/7 feet
So, The distance covered in 3 rotations = (44/7) x 3
= 18.86 feet

1000 times three-fifths divided by 13/2
Answers
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation: Well use the process of elimination, there are no three-fifths in the equation so you can exclude options C and D, and then you take the remaining words left (600) and divide it by 6 and 1/2 to get how much time left. you wouldn't multiply it because that would increase the time which doesn't make sense.

2) The equation is P=2L+2W. P=2(3)+2(2). P=6+4. P=10
3) the equation for finding the perimeter of a square is P=4s. So P=4(15) P=60

169-25=(x-(-3))^2
