Melanie's car used 8 gallons of gas to drive 314 miles. at what rate does her car use gas in miles per gallon? express your answer in simplest form.

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit rate is in miles/gallon.  If we can drive 314 miles/8gallons, then 314/8 = 39.25 miles per 1 gallon.

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
