Answer:

Length of the canal on the map is 16.4 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

If actual length of Panama Canal = 20 kilometers

and length of the canal on map = 4 centimeters

Then scale factor = \frac{\text{Length of canal on map}}{\text{Actual length of canal}}

= \frac{4}{20}

= \frac{1}{5}

If the actual length of Panama Canal = 82 kilometers

Then the length of canal on the map = Actual length × Scale factor

= 82\times \frac{1}{5}

= 16.4 centimeters

Therefore, length of the canal on the map is 16.4 centimeters.

Complete the square to make a perfect square trinomial. Then, write the result as a binomial squared. n^2-4n/3
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

(n- 2/3)²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em>Perfect square trinomial is: </em><em>a²+2ab+b²= (a+b)²</em>

We have:

  • n² - 4n/3

It can be put as:

  • n² -2×n×2/3

Here we consider n = a and -2/3 = b, then

  • b²= (-2/3)²= 4/9

Now we add 4/9 to a given binomial to make it perfect square:

  • n² - 2×n×3/2 + 4/9= (n- 2/3)²

So, added 4/9 and got a perfect square (n- 2/3)²

mezya [45]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that multiplication and division will result in a positive number if no or two negative signs are present. So here, you ignore the negative signs.

All you really have to do is divide 50 by 2, which results in 25.
