Considering the definition of map and scale, an actual distance of 269.59 km represent a scale distance of 5.7 inches .

<h3>Definition of map and scale</h3>

A map is a representation of a place, at a size smaller than the real size.

The scale of a cartographic representation is the relationship of similarity between the real dimensions of the geographical space represented and those of its image on the map. That is, the scale is defined as the proportionality relationship that exists between a distance measured on the ground and its corresponding measurement on the map.

One way to represent the scale is by a fraction, which indicates the proportion between the distance on a map and its corresponding distance in reality:

Scale=\frac{distance on the map}{distance in reality}

<h3>Actual distance in this case</h3>

In this case, you know that a scale distance of 3.5 inches on a map represent an actual distance of 175 km.

To know the real distance that represents a scale distance of 5.7 inches, as the scale ratio is the same as in the previous case, it is expressed:

\frac{3.7 inches}{175 km}=\frac{5.7 inches}{distance in reality}

Solving:

\frac{3.7 inches}{175 km}×distance in reality= 5.7 inches

distance in reality= \frac{5.7 inches}{\frac{3.7 inches}{175 km}}

<u><em>distance in reality= 269.59 km</em></u>

In summary, an actual distance of 269.59 km represent a scale distance of 5.7 inches .

How do i find a formula for "1+3+5+7+......+(2n-1)
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

common difference d=3-1=2

first term a=1

an=a+(n-1)d

2n-1=1+(l-1)2

2n-1=1+2l-2

2n-1=2l-1

l=n

(i used l for number of terms)

number of terms=n

S_{n}=\frac{n}{2} (first ~term+last~term)\\=\frac{n}{2} (1+2n-1)\\=n^2

How to solve <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=log_%7By%7D%285y%29%20%3D%202" id="TexFormula1" title="log_{y}(5y) = 2" alt="log_
Natalija [7]

Answer:

  y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the logarithm:

\log_y{(5)}+\log_y{(y)}=2\\\\\dfrac{\log{(5)}}{\log{(y)}}+1=2 \quad\text{change of base formula}\\\\\dfrac{\log{(5)}}{\log{(y)}}=1 \quad\text{subtract 1}\\\\\log{(5)}=\log{(y)} \quad\text{multiply by log(y)}\\\\5=y \quad\text{take the anti-log}

_____

You can also take the antilog first:

  5y = y²

  y(y -5) = 0 . . . . . subtract 5y, factor

  y = 0 or 5 . . . . . y=0 is not a viable solution, so y=5.
