The ratio is 1:20 so if you need to go up 2.5 inches you need to travel 2.5x20 inches horizontally.
2.5x20=50 inches.

Right triangle ABC is located at A (−1, −2), B (−1, 1), and C (−5, 1) on a coordinate plane. What is the equation of a circle A

Zigmanuir [339]

Find the length of the line from A to C, which would be the radius using the distance formula:

Distance = √(-5 +1)^2 + 1+2)^2)

Distance = √(4^2 + 3^2)

Distance = √25

Distance = 5

The equation of a circle is written as (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2, where h and k is the center point X and y values and r is the radius.

The center of the circle is located at A ( -1,-2) and the radius is 5.

Replace h, k and r with those values:

(x - (-1))^2 + (y- (-2))^2 = 5^2

Simplify to get:

(x+1)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 25

Suppose you are going to graph the data in the table.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

The correct representation of data on x-axis and y-axis is:

x-axis: minutes in increments of 5; y-axis: temperature in increments of 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The minutes will be plotted along the x-axis with increment of 5 minutes because the minutes represents here the independent variable

and the temperature will be plotted along the y-axis with the increment of 5 degrees Celsius because the temperature denotes the dependent variable.

For f(x) = x^2 and g(x) = x^2 + 2, find the following composite functions and state the domain of each

OleMash [197]

Answer:

$composite \: function \: is \: given \: as \: in \: two \: forms \\ \\ f(g(x))and \: g(f(x)) \: therefore \: f(g(x)) =( x {}^{2} ) {}^{2} + 2 \\ whereas \: g(f(x)) = (x {}^{2} + 2) {}^{2} \\ domain of \: f(x) = x {}^{2} is( \infty - \infty ) \: and \: domain \: of \: g(x) = x {}^{2} + 2 \: is \: also \: ( \infty - \infty )$
