The scale on a map is 2cm =25 miles Dave measured the distance to the next town 5cm How many miles away is the next town

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>

The curve with equation y=ax^2+bx has a gradient of 3 at the point (2,-2). Find the values of a and b.
Airida [17]

Answer:

a = 2, b = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = ax² + bx

\frac{dy}{dx} is the measure of the slope at x = a

Differentiate each term with respect to x using the power rule

\frac{d}{dx}(ax^{n} ) = nax^{n-1}

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2ax + b, hence

2ax + b = 3 at (2, - 2)

Substitute x = 2 into \frac{dy}{dx}

4a + b = 3 → (1) and substitute x = 2 into y

4a + 2b = - 2 → (2)

Subtract ( 1) from (2)

b = - 2 - 3 = - 5

Substitute b = - 5 into (1)

4a - 5 = 3 ( add 5 to both sides )

4a = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

a = 2

You read 15 pages of your psychology text in 90 minutes, how many pages can you read in 4 hours
AURORKA [14]

Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hour and 30 min is 15 pages read

If you read for three hours its 30 pages

An hour and a half is three parts of 30 so three parts of 15 is five

But you need a whole hour so its ten

Then you add 10 and 30

Its 40 pages in 4 hours.

What is the slope intercept form of an equation that goes through (-3,-5) and slope is 3/7
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form: y−7=34(x−3)

Slope intercept form: y=34x+194..or..y=34x+434

Explanation:

Since you have one point and the slope, you can use the point slope formula, then solve for y to get the slope intercept form, so that you can determine the y-intercept (b). Then you can graph the resulting equation.

Point slope formula

y−y1=m(x−x1), where x1,y1=(3,7), and m=34 is the slope.

Substitute the given values into the formula.
