Answer:

4 3/8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that: the scale on a map is 1 inch =2 1/2 miles.the distance between two streets on the map is 1 3/4 inches

If 1 inches = 2 1/2 miles

1 3/4 inches =

Cross Multiply

1 3/4 × 2 1/2/1

= 7/4 × 5/2

= 35/8

= 4 3/8 miles

The actual distance between these streets is 4 3/8 miles

The ropes on either side of a swing are 1.9 m long. If a child swings through a arc length of 0.9 Determine the angle (in radian
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

theta = 9/19 radians or  approximately .4737 radians

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for arc length is

S = r theta  

where theta is in radians.  Lets put in what we know.  The radius would be 1.9 since the ropes would be the radius.

.9 = 1.9 theta

Divide by 1.9 on each side.

.9/1.9 = theta

theta = 9/19 radians

or in decimal form it is approximately  .4737 radians

Jessica had m beads. She used 18 of them to make a necklace for her mom. Then she used the rest to make k bracelets for her frie
Y_Kistochka [10]
The expression to represent this would be (m-18)/k.

We first subtract the 18 beads she used in her mother's bracelet from her beginning number, m.  We then divide our result by k, the number of bracelets she made for her friends.

I literally have no clue how to do this.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine is opposite divided by the hypotenuse.

sin(30) = 9/y

1/2 = 9/y

y = 18

Cosine is adjacent divided by the hypotenuse

cos(30) = x/18

\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}=x/18\\x=9\sqrt{3}=15.6

Solve for r<br> rs / a - 3 = k
Jobisdone [24]
You can isolate r to one side of the equation by dividing by adding three, dividing by s, multiplying by a and you get:

r=a(3+k)/s
