We are given the ratio of 1/2 inch: 18 miles
Multiply both sides of the ratio by 2. I'm doing this so that the "1/2" turns into "1"
So we go from this ratio
1/2 inch: 18 miles
to this ratio
1 inch: 36 miles
which means that every inch on paper represents 36 miles in real life
----------------------------------------------------------------
The question is now: if two towns are 2.5 inches apart on paper, then how far are they in real life? (note: 2.5 is the decimal form of 2 and a half)
To find out, multiply both sides by 2.5
1 inch: 36 miles
2.5*(1 inch): 2.5*(36 miles)
2.5 inches: 90 miles
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The two towns are 90 miles apart in real life
First you need to make a line that is perpendicular to one side. The diagram is shown below. then the length of the line that is perpendicular to the triangle is
then the area of the equilateral triangle equals to
so the area would be
Answer:
$295.01
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the compounding continuously formula, we are looking for A. We have that P = 190; r = .11 (always use the decimal form of the rate!); and t = 4. Filling in we have:
Simplifying that multiplication:
.
On your calculator, raise e to the .44 power to get
A = 190(1.552707219) and
A = $295.01
Answer: Number 1 is c=89 ft
Number 2 is b=3 cm
Step-by-step explanation: a²+b²=c²
For number 1, 39 ft is a and 80 ft is b so
39²+80²=c² so 39² is 39x39=1521 and 80² is 80x80=6400 so 6400+1521=7921
7921=c² and the square root of 7921 is 89 so c=89 ft
For number 2, a=1.6 cm and c=3.4 cm so 3.4²-1.6²=b²
3.4² so 3.4x3.4 which is 11.56
1.6² so 1.6x1.6 which is 2.56
11.56-2.56=c² and 11.56-2.56=9
Square root of 9 is 3 so b=3
So number 2 answer is b=3 cm
I hope this helps
