Merritt is driving to Mount Shasta. On her map, she is a distance of 7 1/2 inches away. The scale of the map is 12 inch = 50 miles. How far must Merritt travel to reach her destination?

the answer to the question is a  

it has the same slope and the same y-intercept.

answer: the answer is b. i think hope i got it correct

step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 10 +  √10  units

explanation:

first, we will need to get the length of each line using the distance formula which is as follows:

distance = 

1- length of ab:

ab =   = 5 units

2- length of ac

length of ac is the same as ab = 5 units

3- length of bc:

bc =   =  √10  units

now, we can get the perimeter by adding the side lengths as follows:

perimeter = 5 + 5 +  √10

perimeter = 10 +  √10  units

hope this : )

look at the picture.

1.

ef : ab = 2 : 3

gf : cb = 2 : 3

gh : cd = 2 : 3

he : da = 2 : 3

2.

∠a ≅ ∠e

∠b ≅ ∠f

∠c ≅ ∠g

∠d ≅ ∠h

3.

use pythagorean theorem:

the length of the abcd trapezoid sides:

|ab| = 3 cm

|bc| = 10 cm

|cd| = 3(3) cm = 9 cm

|da| = 8 cm

the perimeter of abcd = 3 + 10 + 9 + 8 = 30 cm

the ratio of perimeters of the tarapezoids is equal 2 : 3.

substitute:

      cross multiply

      divide both sides by 3
