Answer:

Answer: 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It says 1 inch equals 5 feet. So, every inch is on the map is an extra 5 feet in real space. So if you think about it, all this is is a simple multiplication problem.

Here is the math:

8.5 * 5 = 42.5

Think about it, for every inch there is on the map there is an extra 5 feet in real space. There is 8 inches, so we need 5 extra feet for each of those 8 inches. So what we get for 1 inch is 5 feet, for 2 inches 10 feet, 3 inches 15 feet, etc etc until we reach 8 inches. For the 0.5 inches alone that would equal 2.5 feet in real life since 1 inch is 5 feet.

Y=-x^2+6x-4 Find the Axis of Symmetry and the Vertex, Also solve the whole equation.

Inessa [10]

Answer:

1. Axis of symmetry: x = 3

2. Vertex: (3,5)

3. Solution of the equation:

x-intercepts:

$(3-\sqrt{5},0) \\\\(3+\sqrt{5},0)$

y-intercept: (0, -4)

Explanation:

1. Equation:

$y=-x^2+6x-4$

2. Axis of symmetry:

That is the equation of a parabola, whose standard form is:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

Where:

$a=-1;b=6;c=-4$

The axis of symmetry is the vertical line with equation:

$x=-b/2a$

Substitute $a=-1,\text{ and }b=6$

$x=-6/[(2)(-1)]=-6/(-2)=3$

Thus, the axis of symmetry is:

$x=3$

3. Vertex

The x-coordinate of the vertex is equal to the axys of symmetry, i.e x = 3.

To find the y-xoordinate, substitute this value of x into the equation for y:

$y=-x^2+6x-4\\\\y=-(3)^2+6(3)-4=-9+18-4=5$

Therefore, the vertex is (3, 5)

4. Find the x-intercepts

The x-intercepts are the roots of the equation, which are the points wher y = 0.

$y=-x^2+6x-4=0$

Use the quadratic equation:

$x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} \\\\x=\frac{-6\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(-1)(-4)} }{2(-1)}\\\\x_1=3-\sqrt{5} \\\\x_2=3+\sqrt{5}$

5. Find the y-intercept

The y-intercet is the value of y when x=0:

$y=-x^2+6x-4\\\\y=-(0)^2+6(0)-4=-4$

HELP PLZ DUR 11;59 plz help me

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Base = 10 cm

Height = 60 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is $area=\frac{1}{2} *b*h$ , where b is the length of the base of the triangle, and h is the length of the height of the triangle.

We know the area is 300, and since the height of the triangle is 6 times its base, we know that $h=6*b$ . We can plug in these values into our formula for the area of a triangle, which gives us the following equation to solve:

$300=\frac{1}{2} *b*(6*b)$

$3b^2=300$

$b=\sqrt{100} =10$

The base of the triangle is 10 centimeters.

Now that we know the base of the triangle, we can plug its value in to the original formula to solve for the height of the triangle, which gives us the following equation:

$300=\frac{1}{2} *10*h$
