On a map the distance from Fort Collins to Cheyenne is 3.2 inches. The angle formed at Laramie has measure 43.6º, and the angle

formed at Fort Collins has measure 46.5º. If one inch on the map is equal to 10.6 miles, find the distance from Cheyenne to Laramie to the nearest whole mile

We can solve this by drawing a triangle with three points. The first point at Fort Collins (F), the second at Cheyenne (C) and the third at Laramie (L).

The angle at F = 46.5, the angle at L = 43.6. We know the side opposite angle L = 3.2 (side FC), now we must solve for the side opposite angle F (side LC).

We can use the law of sines to solve this where:

sinA/a = sinB/b
sin43.6/ 3.2 = sin46.5/LC
LC = 3.2 (sin46.5/sin43.6)
LC = 3.37 inches

We are told 1 in = 10.6 miles, therefore:

3.37 inches x 10.6 miles/in = 36 miles from Laramie to Cheyenne.

Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square x^2-2ax+b=0​
luda_lava [24]

Let a, ß be the roots of x² + 2ax + b =0.......[1]

⇒a + ß = -2a and aß = b

By hypothesis

la-ß | ≤ 2m

⇒ (a-ß)² ≤ 4m²

⇒ (a+ß)²-4aß < 4m²

⇒ 4a²-4b ≤ 4m²

⇒a² - b ≤ m²......(2)

And discriminant of (1) is >0

⇒4a²-4b> 0

⇒ b <a²...... (3)

From (2) and (3)

a² > b≥ (a² - m²)

b = [a² - m², a²)

A stadium has 20,000 reserved seats and 25,000 general admission seats. If reserved seats are $17.50 and general admission seats
JulijaS [17]
Reserved seats -
20,000 multiplied by $17.50 is $350,000

General seats - 
25,000 multiplied by 10.75 is $268,750

$268,750 added with $350,000 is $618,750.

The total amount of money would be $618,750.

Hope this helps!

Could someone help me complete this chart? It’s kinda confusing.
NARA [144]

Answer:

1. - completed

2. expanded = a · a · a · a

3. base = a | exponent = 5 | expanded = a · a · a · a · a

4. - completed

5. base = c | exponent = 3 | expanded = c · c · c

6. base = c | exponent = 4 | expanded = c · c · c · c

7. base = m | exponent = 2 | expanded = m · m

8. base = m | exponent = 3 | expanded = m · m · m

9. power = y⁵ | base = y | exponent = 5

10. power = y⁸ | expanded = y · y · y · y · y · y · y · y

hope this helps ! brainliest ?
