Hello!

You have to find how many miles is 1 inch on the map

We can do this by doing 40 / 2 1/2 = 16

16 miles is equal to one inch

So we multiply this by 1 1/2

16 * 1 1/2 = 24

The answer is 24 miles

Hope this helps!

Which shows the correct substitution of the values a, b, and c from the equation 0 = – 3x2 – 2x + 6 into the quadratic formula?
AlexFokin [52]

An expression which shows the correct substitution of the values a, b, and c from the equation 0 = – 3x2 – 2x + 6 into the quadratic formula is: expression A. Therefore, the correct answer option is A.

<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation can be defined as a mathematical expression (equation) that can be used to define and represent the relationship that exists between two or more variable on a graph. In Mathematics, the standard form of a quadratic equation is given by;

ax² + bx + c = 0

Mathematically, the quadratic formula is modeled or represented by this mathematical expression:

x = \frac{-b\; \pm \;\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

From the information provided, we have the following values;

0 = -3x² - 2x + 6

Where:

a = -3

b = -2

c = 6

Substituting the values into the quadratic formula, we have;

x = \frac{-(-2)\; \pm \;\sqrt{(-2)^2 - 4(-3)(6)}}{2(-3)}\\\\x = \frac{2\; \pm \;\sqrt{4^2 - 4(-3)(6)}}{2(-3)}
