This is the concept of linear proportionality, we are required to calculate the actual length between two buildings which have a distance of 1.7 cm when drawn to scale of 1 cm: 2.5 km. This can be calculated as follows;
actual distance= (distance on the map)*(scale factor)
actual distance=1.7*2.5=4.25 km

The answer is 4.25 km

Make a table with the domain of {2,3,4,5,6} and draw a graph of the absolute value function y = 2|x-4| + 3.
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

<h2>In the attachment.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

|a|=\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}a&for\ a\geq0\\-a&for\ a

Put each value of x from the set {2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

to the equation y = 2|x - 4| + 3:

x = 2 → y = 2|2 - 4| + 3 = 2|-2| + 3 = 2(2) + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7 → (2, 7)

x = 3 → y = 2|3 - 4| + 3 = 2|-1| + 3 = 2(1) + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5 → (3, 5)

x = 4 → y = 2|4 - 4| + 3 = 2|0| + 3 = 2(0) + 3 = 0 + 3 = 3 → (4, 3)

x = 5 → y = 2|5 - 4| + 3 = 2|1| + 3 = 2(1) + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5 → (5, 5)

x = 6 → y = 2|6 - 4| + 3 = 2|2| + 3 = 2(2) + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7 → (6, 7)

Mark the points in the coordinates system.

The domain is only five numbers, therefore the graph of this function is only five points.

In which set does -15/3
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Rational numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1.
