In order to answer that question, we need to know the scale of the map.
Without that information, no answer is possible.

I think you have it in the first part of the question ... the part you decided
not to post.
_________________________

OK. Now that you've provided the scale of the map,
answering the question is a piece-o-cake.
Use a proportion:

(1 inch on the map) / (4 miles on the ground) = ('x' on the map) / (17 miles on the ground)

what are the solution(s) to the quadratic equation 50 – x2 = 0? x = ±2 x = ±6 x = ±5 no real solution

Darina [25.2K]

Consider the given quadratic equation $50-x^2=0$

$x^2-50=0$

Comparing the given quadratic equation to the general equation $ax^2+bx+c=0$ , we get a= 1, b=0 and c= -50

So, the solution to the quadratic equation is given by:

$x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x = \frac{-0 \pm \sqrt{0^2-4(1)(-50)}}{2}$

$x = \frac{\pm \sqrt{200}}{2}$

$x = \pm \sqrt2 (5)$

$x = \pm 5\sqrt2$

So, the solutions to the given quadratic equation are $x = \pm 5\sqrt2$ .

18 Andy flies from the UK to Japan.

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Leila pays more than Andy to fly from the UK to Australia.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Andy flies from the UK to Japan.

His plane ticket costs £554.

Andy then flies from Japan to Australia.

His plane ticket costs 70 140 Japanese Yen.

The exchange rate is £1 = 140 Japanese Yen.

Leila flies from the UK to Australia.

Her plane ticket costs 1860 Australian dollars.

The exchange rate is 1 Australian dollar = £0.62.

Now, to find Andy or Leila who pays more to fly from the UK to Australia.

Andy flies from the UK to Japan.

His plane ticket costs = £554.

Andy then flies from Japan to Australia.

His plane ticket costs 70 140 Japanese Yen.

The exchange rate is £1 = 140 Japanese Yen.

So, by using conversion factor we convert Japanese Yen to £.

140 = £1

70140 = $70140\div 140=\£501.$

His plane ticket costs = £501.

Now, adding both the cost of tickets:

$501+554=\£1055.$

Andy total pays fly from the UK to Australia is £1055.

Now, to get the cost of plane ticket of Leila from the UK to Australia.

Her plane ticket costs 1860 Australian dollars.

The exchange rate is 1 Australian dollar = £0.62.

So, by using conversion factor:

1 Australian dollar = £0.62

1860 Australian dollar = $1860\times 0.62=\£1153.2$

Her plane ticket costs is £1153.2.

As, we see that cost of plane ticket of Andy is £1055 and cost of plane ticket of Leila is £1153.2.

Thus, Leila pays more.

Therefore, Leila pays more than Andy to fly from the UK to Australia.
