Answer: 868 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The scale from a map to actual distance is 2.5 cm to 620 miles.

i.e. 1 cm on map  = \dfrac{620}{2.5}\text{ miles}=248 \text{ miles}

If the distance on the map between Chicago and Boston is about 3.5 cm.

Then, the actual distance between them =  3.5\times 248 \text{ miles}=868 \text{ miles}

Hence, the approximate distance between Chicago and Boston = 868 miles.

Solve the inequality and write the solution set using both set-builder notation and interval notation. -3a-15≤-2a+6
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Set builder notation: {a | a ≥ -21}

Interval notation: [-21, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

A set represents a collection of things, objects, or numbers. A set builder notation is in the form y = {x | x is an odd number between 8 and 10}, which means y contains all the odd numbers between 8 and 10.

Interval notation is a way to define a set of numbers between a lower limit and an upper limit using end-point values. for example (8, 20) means numbers between 8 and 20.

Given -3a-15≤-2a+6; solving :

-3a - 15 ≤ -2a + 6

-3a + 2a ≤ 6 + 15

-a ≤ 21

dividing through by -1:

a ≥ -21

The solution is:

Set builder notation: {a | a ≥ -21}

Interval notation: [-21, ∞)
