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

Find the equation of (2,-1)
Elis [28]
You seem to have forgotten to add in the y-intercept or slope. For the information you have given, it could be any equation, so long as it passes through the point (2, -1), such as
y = -x + 1

Solve for x on the interval [0, 2pi]<br> Sinx = cosx + 1
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

π

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x on the interval [0, 2pi]

Given the equation

Sinx = cosx + 1

Square both sides of the equation

Sin²x = (cos x + 1)²

Sin²x = cos²x + 2cos x + 1

Since Sin²x = 1 - cos²x

1 - cos²x = cos²x + 2cos x + 1

Collect like terms

1-1-cos²x-cos²x-2cos x  = 0

-2cos²x-2cos x = 0

-2cos²x = 2cos x

-cosx = 1

cos x = -1

x = arccos -1

x = 180 degrees

<em>Hence the value of x = π</em>

Find the x-and y-intercepts of the graph of each equation<br>8. x+y=9​
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x- intercept let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

x + 0 = 9

x = 9 ← x- intercept ⇒ (9, 0 )

To find the y- intercept let x = 0 in the equation and solve for y

0 + y = 9

y = 9 ← y- intercept ⇒ (0, 9 )

Geometry; cosines/ Sines. Find the value of x and round to the nearest tenth. Include explanation. All bogus answers will be rep
ipn [44]

In this problem you only need to find the x value of one triangle. If you notice, this is a rectangle that has been cut in half by a diagonal into two equal right triangles. So both the top and bottom part are equal to 500 and both have an angle equal to 10 degrees.

Now looking at the problem, you would have to use tangent since 500 is adjacent and your X value is opposite.

Tan(10) = (X/500)

Now solve by multiplying each side by 500

X= Tan(10) 500 put this in a calculator

Answer is 88.2 degrees
