Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's focus on the top part first, 2y-6 and we know y=5.

So 2(5) -6 is the equation, 2x5 is 10 and 10-6 is 4 so what we are left with is 4÷x we are also told that x is equal to 2. So 4÷2 is 2 and that's the final answer!

Hopefully this will help, have a great day!

M = 2; b=3 using y-intercept how do i solve

mash [69]

The slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have m = 2 and b = 3. Substitute:

$y=2x+3$

The sum of a number and its square is 182. Find the number.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

13 and -14 satisfy this condition

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent that number as x

and the square of x is x^2

So,

x + x^2 = 182

Subtract 182 from both sides

x + x^2 - 182 = 182 - 182

x + x^2 - 182 = 0

rearrange the quadratic equation

x^2 + x -182 = 0

let's use the quadratic formula

$\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$ or $\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

a = 1, b = 1, c = -182

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{1^2-4*1*(-182)} }{2*1}$ or $\frac{-1-\sqrt{1^2-4*1*(-182)} }{2*1}$

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{1+728} }{2}$ or $\frac{-1-\sqrt{1+728} }{2}$

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{729} }{2}$ or $\frac{-1-\sqrt{729} }{2}$

$\frac{-1+{27} }{2}$ or $\frac{-1-{27} }{2}$

$\frac{26}{2}$ or $\frac{-28}{2}$

13 or - 14

Lets check

13 + 13^2 = 13 + 169

= 182

Also,

-14 + (-14^2) = -14 + 196

= 182

On another map the distance between saugerties and kingston is 2 inches. Whar would tge distance from saugerties to catskill be

Mariana [72]

The question is incomplete. The map is attached as a photo and here is the complete question:

a. What is the actual distance between Saugerties and

Kingston? ___________________________

b. Catskill is 15 miles from Saugerties. What would the

distance on the map be? ___________________________

c. On another map, the distance between Saugerties and

Kingston is 2 inches. What would the distance from Saugerties to

Catskill be on this map? __________________

Since you have asked the answer for part (c) only, here is the answer:

Answer:

The distance from Saugerties to Catskill would be 3 inches on this map.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the given map, the distance between Saugerties and Kingston is 4 inches and the scale is 1 inch = 2.5 miles.

To calculate the actual distance in miles between Saugerties and Kingston, consider the given scale:

1 inch ---------- 2.5 miles

4 inches ------ x miles

Cross multiplying:

1x = 2.5 x 4

x = 10 miles

The actual distance between Saugerties and Kingston is 10 miles.

On another map, the distance between Saugerties and Kingston is 2 inches. Which means the scale is 2 inches = 10 miles. So 1 inch = 10/2 = 5 miles

The scale on the other map is 1 inch = 5 miles.

Catskill is 15 miles from Saugerties (given in the previous part). So on the map:

1 inch -------- 5 miles

y inch ------- 15 miles

Cross multiplying:

15 = 5y

y = 15/5

y = 3 inches.

The distance from Saugerties to Catskill would be 3 inches on this map.
