Answer:

The distance between the two towns is 225 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The scale of map is:

$1\text{ cm}:75\text{ km}$

This means that a distance of 1 cm on map marks a distance of 75 km in reality,

We have to find the distance between two towns.

Distance between two towns on the map = 3 cm

Distance between towns =

We could use the concept of ratio to solve this problem:

$\displaystyle\frac{1}{75} = \frac{3}{d}\\\\\text{whered is the distance between the two towns}\\\Rightarrow d = 3\times 75 = 225$

Hence, the distance between the two towns is 225 km.

Answer:

29°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠1 ≅ ∠8

3x+25 = 4x -17

42 = x . . . . . . . . . . add 17-3x

Now, we can find the measure of ∠1:

m∠1 = 3(42) +25 = 151

Angle 2 is the supplement to this, so has measure ...

m∠2 = 180° -151° = 29°

The height of a ball thrown vertically upward from a rooftop is modelled by h(t)= -4.8t^2 + 19.9t +55.3 where h (t) is the balls

nikitadnepr [17]

By applying the quadratic formula and discriminant of the quadratic formula, we find that the maximum height of the ball is equal to 75.926 meters.

<h3>How to determine the maximum height of the ball</h3>

Herein we have a quadratic equation that models the height of a ball in time and the maximum height represents the vertex of the parabola, hence we must use the quadratic formula for the following expression:

- 4.8 · t² + 19.9 · t + (55.3 - h) = 0

The height of the ball is a maximum when the discriminant is equal to zero:

19.9² - 4 · (- 4.8) · (55.3 - h) = 0

396.01 + 19.2 · (55.3 - h) = 0

19.2 · (55.3 - h) = -396.01

55.3 - h = -20.626

h = 55.3 + 20.626

h = 75.926 m

By applying the quadratic formula and discriminant of the quadratic formula, we find that the maximum height of the ball is equal to 75.926 meters.
