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.

Please find the attachment.

Let x represent the side length of the squares.

We have been given that an open box is made from an 8 by ten-inch rectangular piece of cardboard by cutting squares from each corner and folding up the sides. We are asked to find the volume of the box.

The side of box will be 8-x-x=8-2x and 10-x-x=10-2x.

The height of the box will be x.

The volume of box will be area of base times height.

\text{Volume of box}=(8-2x)(10-2x)\cdot x

Now we will use FOIL to simplify our expression.

\text{Volume of box}=(80-16x-20x+4x^2)\cdot x

\text{Volume of box}=(80-36x+4x^2)\cdot x

Now we will distribute x.

\text{Volume of box}=80x-36x^2+4x^3

V(x)=80x-36x^2+4x^3

Therefore, the volume of the box would be V(x)=80x-36x^2+4x^3.

John is making baked goods for a party. He can either make muffins or bread, and he can use blueberries, bananas, apples, or cho
Margarita [4]

The total number of possible choices that John had for making baked goods for the party is 8.

<h3>What is Combination?</h3>

The combination helps us to know the number of ways an object can be arranged without a particular manner. A combination is denoted by 'C'.

^nC_r = \dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

where,

n is the number of choices available,

r is the choices to be made.

We know that the number of choices with John for his baked goods is only two which are muffins or bread, therefore, the choices of the baked good can be written as ^2C_1.

Also, the number of choices with John for flavors is four which are blueberries, bananas, apples, or chocolate chips, therefore, the choices of the flavor can be written as ^4C_1.

Now, the total possible choices that John had

= The choices of the baked good x The choices of the flavor

=\ ^2C_1 \times ^4C_1\\\\=\ 8

Hence, the total number of possible choices that John had for making baked goods for the party is 8.
