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.

What is the solution set of (x^2+x-6/x-7)<_0

Vlada [557]

X^2 + x - 6
------------- <= 0
x - 7

(x + 3)(x - 2)
---------------- <= 0
x - 7

2 critical values are x = -3 and x = 2

if x <= -3 the the function <= 0 so that's one part of the solution
also x >= 2
x must be < 7 if its = 7 then the function is indeterminate. and values between 2 and 7 will give negative valu to function

The answer is choice A.

7/8 - 1/4 - 1/2= ??

madreJ [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can break this up into pieces, first we do, 7/8 - 1/4, find the least common denominator which is 8, so the equation will be 7/8 - 2/8, which we can now subtract and will give us, 5/8, now that we have done that, we can do 5/8 - 1/2. Since we know that half of 8 (our denominator) is 4. Then the equation would be 5/8 - 4/8, which brings us to 1/8 as our final answer.

Cheers!
