Mathematics

First we need to find the measurement for 1 centimetre. To do this, we need to divide the given amount of miles (25) by the given number of centimetres (2).

25 / 2 = 12.5

1 cm = 12.5 miles

Now we need to find the distance of the next town.

If the next town is 5 cm, and 1 cm is 12.5 miles, we need to multiply 12.5 by 5.

12.5 * 5 = 62.5

<h3>So the next town is 62.5 miles away!</h3>

If you are asked to round this to the nearest whole number, it would be 63 miles.

Hope this helped! <em>Brainliest? :)</em>

What value of b makes the trinomial below a perfect square x^2-bx+100
Aloiza [94]
1. Perfect square trinomials, are 2nd degree polynomials, of the form          a x^{2} +bx+c so that a \neq 0, b \neq 0, c \neq 0, which can be written as perfect squares.

2. For example (x+1) ^{2} = x^{2} +2x+1&#10; &#10;(3x-1)^{2}= (3x)^{2}-2(3x)+(-1) ^{2}= 9x^{2}-6x+1    &#10;

3. Thus x^{2} +2x+1, 9x^{2}-6x+1 are perfect square trinomials.

4. x^{2} -bx+100= x^{2} -bx+ 10^{2}= (x+10)^{2}   or  (x-10)^{2}

5. In the first case -b=20, so b=-20. In the second case, -b=-20, so b=20.

6. b∈{-20, 20}

The work W required to move a particle from a far distance to within radius r of another particle varies jointly as the product
tangare [24]

Answer:

W = kq1q2 / r

Step-by-step explanation:

W varies jointly as the product of q1 and q2 and inversely as radius r

Product of q1 and q2 = q1q2

W = (k*q1"q2) / r

W = kq1q2 / r

Where,

W = work

q1 = particle 1

q2 = particle 2

r = radius

k = constant of proportionality

The answer is W = kq1q2 / r
