<span>In this problem, to find the answer we have to setup a series of ratios that relate the scale to real life distance. We know that 1cm = 2.50km, so that ratio would be 1cm/2.5km. For two towns that are 4.75cm apart on the map, we set a ration of 4.75cm/x km, where x is the actual distance. Now we set the ratios equal to each other and solve for x. 1/2.5=4.75/x where x = 4.75*2.5/1 = 11.875 and rounding up we get 11.88 km. The two towns are actually 11.88 km apart from each other.</span>

Answer:

110 degrees is the largest angle

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles in a pentagon add up to 540 degrees. In general, an n-sided polygon has angles that add up to 180*(n-2) where n is the number of sides. So, we're looking for 5 consecutive numbers that add up to 540. So, the five angles are 106, 107, 108, 109, and 110.

B. 195

It’s B because if you divide 584 with 3 it equals 194.66 but you round up and it becomes 195.

Answer in factored form x^2+11x+7
KATRIN_1 [288]
X² <span>+ 11x + 7

because 7 is a prime number, this doesn't factor prettily. you'll want to use the quadratic formula; if you aren't familiar with it, i'd either research it or look it up in your textbook, because it's clunky and not easily understood in this format:

(-b </span>± √((b)² - 4ac))/(2a)

in your equation x² + 11x + 7 ... a = 1, b = 11, and c = 7. what you do is you take the coefficients of every term, then plug it into your equation:
(-11 ± √((11)² - 4(1)(7))/(2(1))

not pretty, i know. but, regardless, you can simplify it:
(-11 ± √((11)² - 4(1)(7))/(2(1))
(-11 ± √(121 - 28))/2
(-11 ± √93)/2

and you can't simplify it further. -11 isn't divisible by 2, and 93 doesn't have a perfect square that you can take out from beneath the radical. the ± plus/minus symbol indicates that you have 2 answers, so you can write them out separately:

(x - (-11 - √93)/2) and (x + (-11 - √93)/2)

they look confusing, but those are your two factors. they can be simplified just slightly by changing the signs in the middle due to the -11:

(x + (11 + √93)/2) (x - (11 - √93)/2)

and how these would read, just in case the formatting is too confusing for you: x plus the fraction 11 + root 93 divided by 2. the 11s and root 93s are your numerator, 2s are your denominator.
