Answer:

105

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to get this is by multiplying 15 by seven because the key says that one cm equals 7 km

A swimming pool is represented on a coordinate grid with the following vertices: Vertex A is at (−2,−3) . Vertex B is at (−2,

Semmy [17]

Answer:

26 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the distance walked by Jared by finding the distances between each of the given vertex of swimming pool. We will use distance formula to find the distances between each vertex.

$\text{Distance}=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex A and vertex B}=\sqrt{(-2--2)^{2}+(-3-5)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex A and vertex B}=\sqrt{(-2+2)^{2}+(-8)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex A and vertex B}=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(-8)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex A and vertex B}=\sqrt{64}=8$

Now let us find distance between vertex B and vertex C.

$\text{Distance between vertex B and vertex C}=\sqrt{(-2-3)^{2}+(5-5)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex B and vertex C}=\sqrt{(-5)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex B and vertex C}=\sqrt{25}=5$

Now let us find distance between vertex C and vertex D.

$\text{Distance between vertex C and vertex D}=\sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(5--3)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex C and vertex D}=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(5+3)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex C and vertex D}=\sqrt{64}=8$

Now let us find distance between vertex D and vertex A.

$\text{Distance between vertex D and vertex A}=\sqrt{(3--2)^{2}+(-3--3)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex D and vertex A}=\sqrt{(3+2)^{2}+(-3+3)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex D and vertex A}=\sqrt{(5)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex D and vertex A}=\sqrt{25}=5$

Now let us add all these distances to find the total distance walked by Jared.

$\text{Total distance walked by Jared}=8+5+8+5$

$\text{Total distance walked by Jared}=26$

Since we have been given that one unit on the grid equals 1 yard, therefore, Jared walked a distance equal to 26 yards.

The solution to a quadratic are called

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

roots

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation with real or complex coefficients has two solutions, called roots.

Roots are also called x-intercepts or zeros. ... The roots of a function are the x-intercepts. By definition, the y-coordinate of points lying on the x-axis is zero. Therefore, to find the roots of a quadratic function, we set f (x) = 0, and solve the equation, ax2 + bx + c = 0.

3(x-5)=2(x-10)<br> Solce for X

stira [4]

Answer: X = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-5)=2(x-10)

3x - 15 = 2x -20

3x = 2x -5

x = -5
