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

Hey there! The answer to your question is simple. First off, it does not ask for oxygen atoms, so that is just there to mess with you. It says carbon, to hydrogen. That means put the number of carbon, 2, before the number of hydrogen, 4. So, The answer is A - 2:4.

Select the solution to the graph from the following points. Select all that apply.
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The solutions are:

(-15 , -4) ⇒ 1st

(3 , 2) ⇒ 3rd

(21 , 8) ⇒ 5th

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution of the graph let us make the equation of the line by using any two points on the line

The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the slope of the line
  • b is the y-intercept (value y at x = 0)

The formula of the slope is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

From the figure

∵ The line passes through points (-3 , 0) and (0 , 1)

- Find the slope of the line

∴ m=\frac{1-0}{0--3}=\frac{1}{3}

- Substitute the value of m in the form of the equation

∴ y = \frac{1}{3} x + b

∵ b is the value of y at x = 0

∵ y = 1 at x = 0 ⇒ y-intercept

∴ b = 1

∴ y = \frac{1}{3} x + 1

Lets substitute the x-coordinate of each point to find the y-coordinate, if the y-coordinate is equal to the y-coordinate of the points, then the point is a solution

Point (-15 , -4)

∵ x = -15

∴ y = \frac{1}{3} (-15) + 1

∴ y = -5 + 1 = -4 ⇒ same value of the point

∴ (-15 , -4) is a solution

Point (-6 , 1)

∵ x = -6

∴ y = \frac{1}{3} (-6) + 1

∴ y = -2 + 1 = -1 ⇒ not the same value of the point

∴ (-6 , 1) is not a solution

Point (3 , 2)

∵ x = 3

∴ y = \frac{1}{3} (3) + 1

∴ y = 1 + 1 = 2 ⇒ same value of the point

∴ (3 , 2) is a solution

Point (12 , 9)

∵ x = 12

∴ y = \frac{1}{3} (12) + 1

∴ y = 4 + 1 = 5 ⇒ not the same value of the point

∴ (12 , 9) is not a solution

Point (21 , 8)

∵ x = 21

∴ y = \frac{1}{3} (21) + 1

∴ y = 7 + 1 = 8 ⇒ same value of the point

∴ (21 , 8) is a solution
