A recycling truck begins its weekly route at the recycling plant at point A, as pictured on the coordinate plane below. It travels from point A to point B, then points C, D, and E, respectively, before returning to the recycling plant at point A at the end of the day. The truck’s route is illustrated on the coordinate plane below. If each unit on the coordinate plane represents one mile, what is the total distance the truck travels on its route? A. 41

B. 38

C. 13

D. 5

(The picture of the graph should be there, I apologize if it isn't clear enough. Also, please explain the answer in detail, I want to try to understand it so when I approach a problem like this, I will know what to do)

41

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

We see the figure formed by the route is symmetric and

The total distance is the perimeter of the polygon

1. AB is horizontal line, 2 units long (from -1 to 1)

2. BC = √((5-1)²+(2 -(-1))²) = √(16 + 9)= √25 = 5 miles

3. CD = √(13-2)² + (5-1)²) = √121+16 = √137 = 11.7 miles

Total

Close option is option B

answer: the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

step-by-step explanation:

the given rate of interest i= 85%

in calculating the monthly payment for a loan with an interest rate compounded monthly, the value of the interest rate per period we use in the formula must be in decimal form.

to convert it in decimal, we divide it by 100, we get

hence, the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.
