Given the scale is 1 cm to 25 km.

We have to find the length of the trail from centimeter to the nearest tenth of kilometer.

Let's take the length of the trail be x km.

The length of the trail given 7.2 cm. We will have to find the length in km.

We have to set it up as a proportion. So we can write the proportion as,

\frac{1}{25} = \frac{7.2}{x}

We have to cross multiply first. We will get,

(1)(x) = (7.2)(25)

x= (7.2)(25)

x = 180

So we have got the required length of the train in kilometer.

The actual length of the trail = 180km.

1/25 = 7.2/x.....1 cm to 25 km = 7.2 cm to x km
cross multiply
(1)(x) = (7.2)(25)
x = 180 km <===

find the average rate of change from t=2 to t=5 for the velocity function v(t)=t^2-t+10. WILL GIVE THE BRAINLIEST ANSWER--EXPLAI
Elina [12.6K]
Answer: The average rate of change is 6.
First, plug in each value of <em>t</em> into the function, v(t) to find there coordinate pairs.

v(2) = (2)^2 - (2) + 10
v(2) = 4 + 8
v(2) = 12

v(5) = (5)^2 - (5) + 10
v(5) = 25 + 5
v(5) = 30

You can write these values as coordinate pairs, like so: (2, 12) and (5, 30).
The formula for the average rate of change is A(x) =  \frac{f(x)-(f(a)}{x-a}. When you plug in the values from this particular case, the average rate of change formula becomes A(t) = \frac{30-12}{5-2}, or A(t)= \frac{18}{3}.

Looking at the equation, you can solve for the average rate of change between t = 2 and t = 5, which equals 6.

Andy completes the square for the equation x2 + 6x - 8 = 0. Which of the following equations reveals the vertex of the parabola?
Stolb23 [73]
If the equation x^2+6x-8 has undergo completing the square, the answer would be:
x^2+6x-8&#10;
x^2+6x+9-8-9
**In this example, since 6x is the middle term, what comes to my mind is the polynomial (x+3) because 2ab results into 6x. [from the special products lesson (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2 ] 
(x+3)^2 -17 = 0
So if the equation is equal to y, then this equation's
y+17=(x+3)^2
The vertex would be on the point (-3, -17)
