What is the meaning of the variable x in terms of 2.25+0.5x=3.75?

Answer asap ! the shortest path from point a to point b goes through a pond. to avoid the pond, you must walk straight 34 meters along one edge of the pond, then take a 90 degree turn, and again walk straight 41 meters along another edge of the pond to reach point b. about how many meters would be saved if it were possible to walk through the pond? a. 11 m b. 20 m c. 30.45 m d. 21.73 m

Dexter read 11 science fiction books and 5 history books. lena read 9 science fiction books and 4 history books. compare the students’ ratios of science fiction books to history books. 1. determine the ratios’ form:    science fiction books to history books 2. write the ratios as fractions:    dexter: 115; lena: 94 3. rewrite with a common denominator. 4. compare. 5. answer the question. determine which shows the correct comparison of the ratios for this problem.

Which sum or difference identity would you use to verify that cos (180° - q) = -cos q? a.) sin (a -b) = sin a cos b – cos a sin b b.) cos (a -b) = cos a cos b – sin a sin b c.) cos (a -b) = cos a cosb + sin a sin b d.) sin (a + b) = sin a cos b + cos a sin b
