Answer:

d = 7.4 cm is the distance between the two cities on the map.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d = the distance measured on the map in centimeters (cm) between any two locations and let D be the actual distance in kilometers (km) between these same two locations.

Since the scale on the map is 1 cm = 45 km, then the ratio of the distance on the map to the actual distance is equal to 1cm/45 km; therefore the quotient of any measured distance d on the map divided by the corresponding much longer actual distance D would have to maintain (equal) this same ratio; In other words, we can set up the following proportion to solve for d given the actual distance D = 333 km as follows:

1 cm/45 km = d/D

Substituting, we get:

1 cm/45 km = d/333 km

d/333 km = 1 cm/45 km

(d/333 km)(333 km) = (1 cm/45 km)(333 km)

d = (333 km/45 km)(1 cm)

d = 7.4 cm is the distance between the two cities on the map.

Check:

1 cm/45 cm = d/333 km

1 cm/45 cm = 7.4 cm/333 km

1 cm/45 cm = 1 cm/45 km (Therefore, the distance ratio of the map has been maintained

Rewrite 5-6 using the additive inverse and display the help this are the answers

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Additive inverse of (5-6) is (6-5),

------------------------------

So:

(5-6)+(6-5)=0

5-6+6-5=0

5-6=-6+5

-------------------------

Left <--- -6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ---> Right

Move 5 places to the right of -6 and you should land on -1.

Find exact values for sin θ, cos θ and tan θ if csc θ = 3/2 and cos θ < 0.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Part 1) $sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

Par 2) $cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

Part 3) $tan(\theta)=-\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the $sin(\theta)$

we have

$csc(\theta)=\frac{3}{2}$

Remember that

$csc(\theta)=\frac{1}{sin(\theta)}$

therefore

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

step 2

Find the $cos(\theta)$

we know that

$sin^{2}(\theta) +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

we have

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

substitute

$(\frac{2}{3})^{2} +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

$\frac{4}{9} +cos^{2}(\theta)=1$

$cos^{2}(\theta)=1-\frac{4}{9}$

$cos^{2}(\theta)=\frac{5}{9}$

square root both sides

$cos(\theta)=\pm\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

we have that

$cos(\theta) < 0$ ---> given problem

so

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

step 3

Find the $tan(\theta)$

we know that

$tan(\theta)=\frac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}$

we have

$sin(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}$

$cos(\theta)=-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$

substitute

$tan(\theta)=\frac{2}{3}:-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$

Simplify

$tan(\theta)=-\frac{2\sqrt{5}}{5}$
