Kim drew a map of the Mississippi River. The scale was 5 centimeters represents 120 miles. The actual length of the Mississippi River is 2,320 miles. Approximately what is the length in centimeters of the Mississippi River on the map?

Answers

Answer 1

Considering the definition of scale, the length of the Mississippi River on the map is 96.667 cm.

Definition of scale

The scale of a cartographic representation, or map scale, is the relationship of similarity between the real dimensions of the geographical space represented and those of its image on the map.

Scale is the relationship between a real object (for example, the surface of the Earth or a portion of it) and the representation that is made of it.

The scale is represented as a fraction as follows: measured on the map/measured in reality

Length of the Mississippi River on the map

In this case, you know that:

The scale was 5 centimeters represents 120 miles. The actual length of the Mississippi River is 2,320 miles.

Considering the definition of scale, you can calculate the length of the Mississippi River on the map as follow:

5 cm/ 120 miles= measured on the map/2320 miles

(5 cm/ 120 miles)× 2320 miles= measured on the map

96.667 cm= measured on the map

Finally, the length of the Mississippi River on the map is 96.667 cm.

Answer:

y = - 8x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 8x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 8

• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = - 8x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

to find c substitute (- 0.5, 7 ) into the partial equation

7 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 7 - 4 = 3

y = - 8x + 3 ← equation of parallel line

Let f(x) = x3 + 10, g(x) = x2 - 8, and h(x) = 5x + 4. Find the rule for the function.

Answers

The rule f ( x ) - g ( x ) is given as x^3 - x^2 + 18

Given data

f(x) = x3 + 10, g(x) = x2 - 8, and h(x) = 5x + 4

How to find f(x) - g(x)

f(x) - g(x) = ( x3 + 10 ) - ( x2 - 8 )

= ( x3 + 10 ) - ( x2 - 8 )

opening the parenthesis gives

= x3 + 10 - x2 + 8

collecting like terms gives

= x3 - x2 + 18

Hence we can say that f(x) - g(x) = x3 - x2 + 18

The area of a rectangular barn is 119 square feet. its length is 10 feet longer than the width. find the length and width of the wall of the barn.

Answers

The length of the field with area 119 square feet is 17 feet and the width of the feet is 7 feet.

The area is the total region or space in two dimension that is covered by a figure , surface or object. Area of a rectangle is calculated by the product of its length and width.

A rectangle has 4 sides where each pair of  opposite side is equal .The length of a rectangle is normally the longer side and the width defines the shorter side.

Given the area of the barn is 119 square feet.

Let us consider the width of the barn to be x feet. As the length is 10 feet longer than the width then we will find the length to be ( x +10 ) feet.

Area = length × width

or, 119 = x × (x+10)

or, 119 = x² +10x

or, x² +10x - 119=0

Now we will solve the quadratic equation thus formed by middle term-factorization method:

or, x² +17x - 7x - 119 = 0

or, x ( x + 17 ) - 7 ( x + 17) = 0

or, ( x + 17 ) ( x - 7 ) = 0

Now either x + 17 = 0 or x - 7 =0

Therefore either x = 7  

or, x = -17 (The width cannot be a negative value)

Width = 7 feet and length = 7 + 10 = 17 feet.

Therefore the length of the field is 17 feet and the width of the feet is 7 feet.

Suppose Albers Elementary School has 76 teachers and Bothel Elementary School has 24 teachers. If 3 teachers teach at both Albers and Bothel, compute the total number of teachers employed at Albers and Bothel combined.

Answers

The number of teachers that work in both schools is 97.

What is an addition?

The addition is a way of combining things and counting them together as one large group.

We have,

Number of teachers in Alberts Elementary school = 76

Number of teachers in Bothel Elementary school = 24

Number of teachers that work in both schools = 3

The number of teachers that work in both schools:

= 76 + 24 - 3

We are subtracting 3 from the total because 3 teachers that work in both schools have been added twice.

= 100 - 3

= 97

Thus the number of teachers that work in both schools is 97.

The amount that would be in the account kept with BPI bank in 3 years is P3,011.2640

It would 6.9422 years for the deposit to double if interest rate is 10,5%

What is future value of immediate amount?

The future value of deposit today in 3 years means its future equivalent when the amount has earned interest over the 3 years period

FV=PV*(1+r)^N

FV=future value after 3 years=unknown

PV=immediate deposit=3,000

r=annual interest rate=0.125%

N=number of years that the deposit lasted=3

FV=3000*(1+0.125%)^3

FV=P3,011.2640

Time taken to double:

FV=future value=3000*2=6000

PV=3000

r=annual interest rate=10.5%

N=number of years that it takes initial deposit to double=unknown

6000=3000*(1+10.5%)^N

6000/3000=(1.105)^N

2=(1.105)^N

take log of both sides

ln(2)=N*ln(1.105)

N=ln(2)/ln(1.105)

N=6.9422 years

Annuity:

FV=PMT*(1+r)^N-1/r

FV=future value of annuity=unknown

PMT=annual payment=20000

r=interest rate=3%

N=number of annual payments=7

FV=20000*(1+3%)^7-1/7%

FV= 153,249.2436

FV=PMT*(1+r)^N-1/r*(1+r)

FV=20000*(1+3%)^7-1/7%*(1+7%)

FV= 157,846.7209

20,000,000=1,250,000*(1+r)^20

20,000,000/1,250,000=(1+r)^20

16=(1+r)^20

(16)^1=(1+r)^20

Answers

Answer:-

Paul has $64 pocket money each day.

Explanantion:-

Let amy ,flora and Paul 's pocket money be x,y and z respectively.

So,

By the question :

x = 3y

So, y = x/3 - eqn i

z = 7 + x - eqn ii

7(x + y + z) = 980

x + y + z = 140

Now,

x + y+ z = 140

x + x/3 + 7 + x = 140

or, 2x + x/3 = 133

or, 6x + x = 399

so, x = 399/7

so, x = $57

Now,

z = 7 + x

= 7 + $57

= $64

What is tangent?

The tangent line to a plane curve at a given point is the straight line that "just touches" the curve at that point

Given

f at x=3 is y= 4x+2

g at x=3 is y=6x-1

f(3)= 4x+2  and g(3)=6x-1

y=f(x)g(x)

at x=3,

Solution for a:

y=f(3)g(3)

=(4x+2)(6x-1)

=24x²-4x+12x-2

=24x²+8x-2

So y=24x²+8x-2 at x=3.

Solution for b:

y=f(3)/g(3)

=(4x+2)/(6x-1)

So y=(4x+2)/(6x-1) at x=3.

Therefore y=24x²+8x-2 at x=3 for y = f(x)g(x) and  y=(4x+2)/(6x-1) at x=3 for y = f(x)/g(x).

Solving for M

Answers

The solution of the given equation 4m - m - t = 0  for m is t/3.

According to the given question.

We have a linear equation in two variables i.e. 4m - t = m.

As we know that, an equation is said to be linear equation in two variables if it is written in the form of ax + by + c=0, where a, b & c are real numbers and the coefficients of x and y, i.e a and b respectively, are not equal to zero.

Since, we have to solve the given equation 4m - t = m for m. So, the solution of the equation 4m - t = m for m is given by

4m - t = m

⇒ 4m - m - t = 0   (subtracting m both the sides)

⇒ 3m - t = 0

⇒  3m = t   (adding t both the sides)

⇒ m = t/3.

Hence, the solution of the given equation 4m - m - t = 0  for m is t/3.
