Answer:

1 cm : 82km

Step-by-step explanation:

Now

1km = 1000 X 100 cm

Therefore

2050km = 2050 X 1000 X 100cm

2050km = 205,000,000 cm

25cm rep 205,000,000 cm

1cm rep 205,000,000/25 cm

1cm rep 8,200,000cm

8,200,000= 8,200,000÷(100,000)km

=82km

Therefore: 1cm represents 82km

An alternate approach is to divide directly

25cm rep 2050 km

1cm represents 2050/25km

1cm: 82km

The scale is 1 cm : 82km

Answer:

Scale of the Map = 1 cm to 82 Km

Step-by-step explanation:

25cm is equivalent to 2050Km

Hence 1cm will be equivalent to 2050/25 = 82Km

Chris shoots an arrow up into the air. The height (in feet) of the arrow is given by the function h(t) = - 16t2 + 64t + 112 wher
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

After 2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is find an equation of velocity:

h(t)=-16t2+64t+112. The velocity function is derivated from position function, so we should do that.

v(t)= h´(t)= -16*2*t+64 ⇒ v(t)= -32t+64.

Now we know the arrow reach the maximun height when this velocity is equal to zero when t>0.

0=-32t+64 ⇒ 32t=64, split each member for 32 ⇒ \frac{32t}{32}=\frac{64}{32}

t=2. That means after 2 sec. the arrow reach the maximum height

Identify the pattern and find the next number in the pattern. 0.8, 3.2 12.851.2
Savatey [412]
For this case we have the following sequence:
 0.8
 3.2
 12.8
 51.2
 This sequence can be written as:
 0.8 = 0.2 * 4 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 1
 3.2 = 0.2 * 16 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 2
 12.8 = 0.2 * 64 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 3
 51.2 = 0.2 * 256 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 4
 Therefore, we have that the generic expression for this case is:
 an = 0.2 * 4 ^ n
 Then, the next number is then:
 a5 = 0.2 * 4 ^ 5 = 0.2 * 1024 = 204.8
 answer
 the next number in the pattern is 204.8
