So 2.5 os to 50, aka 2.5:50
divide each side by 2.5 to get the answer.
if you dont have a calculator, divide each side by 5 to get .5:10, multiply by 2 to get 1:20

To solve this problem simply set up a fraction of a ratio with the 2 numbers.

Then make a new fraction and place the unknown as the variable, here it is x minutes

2.5 miles/50 minutes = 1 mile/ x minutes

X minutes = 50 / 2.5 = 20 minutes.

B is the correct solution.

Triangle XYZ is translated 4 units up and 3 units left to yield ΔXYZ. What is the distance between any two corresponding points

Mashcka [7]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

5 units

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

A point 4 up and 3 over from its original location has moved a distance that can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.

... d² = 4² +3² = 16 +9 = 25

... d = √25 = 5 . . . . units

Solve using algebraic equation: <br> 5sin2x=3cosx<br><br> (No exponents)

DaniilM [7]

$5\sin2x=3\cos x\iff10\sin x\cos x=3\cos x$

by the double angle identity for sine. Move everything to one side and factor out the cosine term.

$10\sin x\cos x=3\cos x\iff10\sin x\cos x-3\cos x=\cos x(10\sin x-3)=0$

Now the zero product property tells us that there are two cases where this is true,

$\begin{cases}\cos x=0\\10\sin x-3=0\end{cases}$

In the first equation, cosine becomes zero whenever its argument is an odd integer multiple of $\dfrac\pi2$ , so $x=\dfrac{(2n+1)\pi}2$ where $n[/tex ]is any integer.\\Meanwhile,\\[tex]10\sin x-3=0\implies\sin x=\dfrac3{10}$

which occurs twice in the interval $[0,2\pi)$ for $x=\arcsin\dfrac3{10}$ and $x=\pi-\arcsin\dfrac3{10}$ . More generally, if you think of $x$ as a point on the unit circle, this occurs whenever $x$ also completes a full revolution about the origin. This means for any integer $n$ , the general solution in this case would be $x=\arcsin\dfrac3{10}+2n\pi$ and $x=\pi-\arcsin\dfrac3{10}+2n\pi$ .
