Answer:

1 dm on map equals 25 km in real distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that 50 km in real distance is 2 dm on a map. We are asked to find the scale of the map.

To answer our given problem we will use unit rate. When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, they are called unit rates. Such as 3 feet per second or 10 miles per hour.

To find the unit rate we will divide 50 km by 2 dm.

$\text{Unit rate}=\frac{50\text{ km}}{2\text{ dm}}$

$\text{Unit rate}=25\frac{\text{ km}}{\text{ dm}}$

Therefore, 1 dm on map equals 25 km in real distance or we can say scale of map is 25 km per dm.

Consider H0: μ = 45 versus H1: μ < 45. A random sample of 25 observations produced a sample mean of 41.8. Using α = .025 and

a_sh-v [17]

Given
$H0: \ \mu=45 \\ \\ H1: \ \mu\ \textless \ 45$
This is a one-tailed test.

$z= \frac{41.8-45}{6/ \sqrt{25} } = \frac{-3.2}{6/5} = \frac{-3.2}{1.2} =-2.6667$

$P(z\ \textless \ -2.6667)=0.00383$

Since the p-value of the sample statistic (0.00383) is less that the significant level (0.025), we reject the null hypothesis.

Y+2=-5/4(x-4) what is the slope

lord [1]

Because Point Slope Form contains m, or slope, in itself, look at the number that is multiplying the parentheses.

-5/4 is m, or slope.

(-4)(-4) use an exponent to rewrite the expression

DiKsa [7]

For this case we have the following expression:
<span> $(-4)(-4) 
$
By properties of exponents we have:
Same basis, the exponents are added.
We have then:
$(-4)^{1+1}$
Then, rewriting the exponent we have:
$(-4)^{2}$
Therefore, an exponent to rewrite the expression is:
2
Answer:
$(-4)^{2}$
an exponent to rewrite the expression is 2.</span>
