Joshua wanted to know the distance between two cities. The scale on the map was 1/2 in = 10 km. The distance between the cities on the map was 2 1/4 in. What was the actual distance between the cities?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

remark : it is very unusual for a map to mix two measurement norms. they are normally either fully in the American or fully in the metric system.

but let's do the exercise.

the scale says 1/2 in = 10 km

but our measurement on the map brought us quarter inches.

so,

1/2 in = 2/4 in = 10 km

therefore

1/4 in = 10/2 = 5 km

now,

2 1/4 = 9/4 in

this is 9 times 1/4.

therefore, the distance between the 2 cities is

9 × 5 = 45 km.

The length of a rectangle is 2.3 inches more than the width. Find the dimensions of the
rectangle if the perimeter is 28.6 inches. Show work.

Answers

Answer:

See image

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w=width

And let l=length

Perimeter is the distance all the way around the outside of the shape. Add up all the sides to find it.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width of the rectangle=x

the length=x+2.3

Since perimeter=28.6

We know that perimeter of a rectangle is given by

P=2(l+w)

28.6=2(x+2.3+x)

28.6=2(2x+2.3)

28.6=4x+4.6

28.6-4.6=4x

4x=24

x=24/4=6

Therefore width is 6inches and length is 8.3inches

What is 1 1/2 divided by 8

Answers

Answer:

3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

start by converting 1 1/2 to an improper fraction by multiplying the 1 by the denomerator and then adding the 1 from teh numerator. Then place that all over the denomantor two. so you get 3/2

then set up your equation:

3/2 x 1/8

you do the resipricol of one of the numbers so instead of 8/1 we do 1/8

3 times 1= 3

2 times 8 is 16

3/16 does not simplify so thats your answer

Answer:

3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

((1 1/2)/8)=(3/2)/8

8 times 2(demoninator)=16

numerator stays same so the answer is 3/16

Find the slope of an equation f(x)=-3sqrt(x) at the point (9,-9)

Answers

Answer:

Slope is [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]f(x)=-3\sqrt{x}[/tex]

Find the derivative using the product rule:

[tex]f'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}(-3)*\sqrt{x}+-3*\frac{d}{dx}\sqrt{x}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x)=-3*\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x)=\frac{-3}{2\sqrt{x}}[/tex]

Plug in coordinates to find slope at that point:

[tex]f'(9)=\frac{-3}{2\sqrt{9}}=\frac{-3}{2(3)}=\frac{-3}{6}=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the equation at the point (9,-9) is [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex].

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An angle measures 152° more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

° and
°


Answers

Answer:

14° and 166°

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so a supplementary angle is 180°.

Let's say one angle is x and the other angle is x+152.

We know these angles add up to a supplementary angle (180°) so...

x+(x+152)=180

x+x+152=180

2x+152=180

2x=28

x=14

So now we know one angle is 14°, we also know the other angle is x+152, knowing that x=14 we can plug it in 14+152= 166° for the other angle.

Hope this helps :)

Two supplementary angles when added together need to equal 180 degrees.
Let the first angle = X
The second angle would then be X - 152
Add them together to equal 180:
X + X - 152 = 180
Simplify:
2X -152 = 180
Add 152 to each side:
2X = 332
Divide both sides by 2:
X = 332 / 2
X = 166
The first angle = X = 166 degrees.
The second angle = X - 152 = 166 - 152 = 14 degrees.
The angles are 166 and 14

A student downloaded a new game on her phone that was recommended by her friend. She wanted to show her friend how good
she was doing, so she wrote down all her scores on the game. Her first five scores on the game were 432, 543, 348, 788, and 823.
On the two questions below, round to the nearest whole number when relevant.
a. What is her mean, or average, score on the game?
b. What is her median score on the game?

Answers

Answer:

a. 587

b. 543

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Mean = sum / number of numbers

To find the sum, we can add the numbers up.

432 + 543 + 348 + 788 + 823 = 2934

There are 5 numbers. Our mean is thus

2934/5 = 586.8, or 587 when rounding up. We round up because we have a .8 at the end, and 8 ≥ 5

b. To find the median, we first must order the numbers. The numbers ordered are this:

348 ,  432 , 543 , 788 , 823

To find the median, we can cross off one number on each side until we are left with one or two numbers.

348 ,  432 , 543 , 788 , 823

cross out one number from each endpoint

432 , 543 , 788

cross out one number from each endpoint

543

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

each zero of the function will have a factor of (x - x₀)

h(x) = a(x + 3)(x + 2)(x - 1)

h(x) = a(x + 3)(x² + x - 2)

h(x) = a(x³ + 4x² + x - 6)

or the third option works if a = 1

however this equation gives us the points (0, -6) and (-1. -4), so "a" must be -2

h(x) = -2x³ - 8x² - 2x + 12

to fit ALL of the given points as it fits the three zeros and also h(0) and h(-1) so I guess that is why the given group is a partial set of solution sets

the hoover dam is 725 feet tall. how long would it take an object to fall from the top to the base of the dam? round the answer to two decimal places

Answers

Answer:

45.05 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula: d = v[tex]i[/tex] t + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] a[tex]t^{2}[/tex]

d = distance      v[tex]i[/tex] = initial velocity (m/s)    

t = time (s)     a = acceleration (m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex])

m is meters and s is seconds. They are units of measurement so leave them be.

Assuming the object is simply dropped, the initial velocity is 0 since the object was not moving before it was dropped.

The distance is 725 feet, which is 220.98 meters.

The acceleration is 9.81m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex] since that is the acceleration of Earth's gravity, aka free fall.

Time is what we are trying to find so just leave it as the variable t.

So plug the values into the equation:

220.98m = (0)(t) + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (9.81m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex])(t)

220.98m = (4.905m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex])(t)

45.0519877676s = t

t = 45.05s
