The actual distance between Yappy city and Quiet city when it is 23 cm in map is 9.2 miles.

What is scaling ?

It is the technique to resize drawing with comparing to actual size of object which uses proportion or ratio. For example, Mapping of earth, drawing prototype of automobiles.

It is given that :

The distance on the map between Yappy city and Quiet city is 23 cm

and,

5cm = 2 miles

now, for 1 cm on map it is equal to 2/5 miles of actual distance.

Therefore to find the actual distance of 23 cm in map we simply multiply 23 with 2/5 :

actual distance :

2/5 x 23 = 9.2 miles

Therefore, the actual distance between Yappy city and Quiet city is 9.2 miles.

Use the zero product property to find the solitions to the equation(x+2)(x+3)=12.

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

(x + 2) (x + 3) = x² + 3x + 2x + 6 = 12 (multiply the binomials)

(x + 2) (x + 3) = x² + 5x + 6 = 12

(x + 2) (x + 3) = x² + 5x + 6-12 = 0 (add the like term and bring the positive 12 to the other side which makes it negative)

x² + 5x + 6 = 0

Using the snowflake method - (finding the factors of 6 that adds/subtracts to give you 5).

This method will give you the factors (x + 6)(x - 1)

ZERO PROPERTY RULE:

(x + 6) = 0

x = -6

(x - 1) = 0

x = 1

The two solutions to the equation are -6 and 1.
