Answer:

1 in : 50 mi . . . or . . . 1 : 3,168,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing the areas by 10, you get 1 square inch corresponding to 2500 square miles. Those areas are equivalent to 1 inch square and 50 miles square. Hence the scale factor is 1 inch : 50 miles.

Sometimes map scales are expressed as a dimensionless ratio. The number of inches in 50 miles is

... (50 mi)×(5280 ft/mi)×(12 in/ft) = 3,168,000 in

so, the map scale can be expressed as 1 : 3,168,000.

How many different 5-person subcommittees can be formed from a club having 12 members
Wittaler [7]
Given that there are 12 persons, the first choice may be in 12 different ways, the second choice may be in 11 different ways, ther third in 10 different ways, the fourth in 9 different ways and the fith in 8 different ways, for a total of:

12x11x10x9x8 different combinations.

Now you have to take in account that 5x4x3x2 are repetitions. So you have to divide the previos counting by 5x4x3x2.

(12x11x10x9x8)/(5x4x3x2) = 792 different subcommittees.

Also, you can use the formula for combinations: C(m,n) = m! / (n! (m-n)!)

C (12, 5) = 12! / (5!) (12-5)! = [12x11x10x9x8x7!] / [5! 7!] = [12x11x10x9x8]/[5x4x3x2] = 792

the graph of y= 6cos (x-2) - 3 is obtained by shifting the graph of y=6 cos x-3 horizontally 3 units to the right. true or false
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function g(x) = f(x − k), can be sketched f(x) shifted k units horizontally. if k is negative, the function is shifted k units to the left.

Given the function g(x) = f(x) + k, we can say that the function is translated vertically upwards k times. If k is negative, the function is translated vertically downwards k times.

In this case, the function is translated two units to the right and 3 units down because the number "-3" is negative.

So it's false. The graph is translated three units downwards and 2 units to the right.
