Answer:

Given:

1 cm = 1200000 cm

using conversion : 1 km = 100000 cm

$1 cm = 12 \times 100000 cm$

1 cm = 12 km

or we can write this as:

12 km = 1 cm

306 km = $\frac{1 \times 306}{12} = \frac{306}{12} = 25.5$ cm (by unitary method)

Therefore, the distance between Ny and Boston on map(in cm) is, 25.5 cm

Answer:

25.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale of 1:1,200,000 means 1 cm equals to 12 km.

Now divide 306 by 12 to you will get 25.5 cm.

So the answer is 25.5 cm in 306 distance.

How to find the median

KengaRu [80]

We can find the median by using the formula:

(N+1/2) th item

For example:

Given data: 4,6,3,5,7

We have to arrange the data into ascending order:

=3,4,5,6,7

N(total no of items)=5

Now,

Median=(N+1/2)th item

 =(5+1/2) th item

 =(6/2) th item

 = 3rd item

Median=5

Hope it helps

Good luck on your assignment

Question 1: Describe in words the region of double-struck R3 represented by the equation: x2 + z2 ≤ 36.

Ganezh [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) i will asume x2 and z2 are squares here.

ok, here we only have restrictions to x and z, so y can take all the values in R.

$x^{2} + z^{2} \leq 36$ is a circle of radius 6, you can see this if for example we set z = 0, then x goes from -6 to 6, the same if we set x = 0 then z goes from -6 to 6.

and the equation $x^{2} + z^{2} \\$ describes a circle.

So here, the region is the solid cylinder of radius 6, where the Y axis is also the axis of the cylinder.

2) you tipped the same inequality but different numbers in the right side, here i think you are saying that the inequalities describes the set of all points whose distance from the y-axis is equal or less tan 6.
