Building a and building b are 500 meters apart. there is no road between them, so to drive from building a to building b, it is necessary to first drive to building c and then to building b. about how much farther is it to drive than to walk directly from building a to building b? round to the nearest whole number. a) 183 meters b) 250 meters c) 366 meters d) 683 meters

Option A) 183 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the distance BC

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

----> adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse

Remember that

substitute the values

step 2

Find the distance AC

In the right triangle ABC

----> opposite side divided by the hypotenuse

Remember that

substitute the values

step 3

Find the distance AC+CB

Subtract the distance AB from 683 m

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer

answer: since the question is talking about growth you have to use the growth formula which is inital amount (1 + growth)^time

step-by-step explanation:

the intial amount is 1200, the growth is 4.8, and the time is 7. plug those numbers into the equation, also i think you have to change 4.8 into a percent. but, i have forgotton how to do that. if this is a online class go on to the lesson.
