If the markers are 4.5 inches away on the map, and 2.5 inches represents 10 miles, then we need to make ratios we can work with.
Inches / Miles:
4.5 / x
2.5 / 10
Now, we can cross multiply to end up with:
2.5 * x = 4.5 * 10
Simplify:
2.5x = 45
Divide 2.5 on each side:
2.5x / 2.5 = 45 / 2.5
Simplify:
x = 45 / 2.5
x = 18
Awesome! Now we have a real ratio on the real distance of the markers.
<span>2.5 : 10 & 4.5 : </span><span>18.
</span>
18 miles is the actual distance between the two markers.
Hope I could help! If my math is wrong, or it isn't the answer you are looking for, please let me know!
<span>Have a good one!</span>
Answer: 4y/(y+3)
Explanation:
{(2y)(4y-12)}/{(y-3)(2y+6)}
= (8y^2 - 24y)/(2y^2 + 6y - 6y - 18)
= (8y^2 - 24y)/(2y^2 - 18)
= {8y(y-3)}/{2(y+3)(y-3)}
= 2 * 4y/{2(y+3)}
= 4y/(y+3)
Yk I really don’t know what to do but I’m just saying that I’m going to be gone for a while
Answer:
You are <em>squaring x and -5 on the first equation</em>, and on the second equation you are <em>just squaring x and subtracting 5.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
And since on the first equation x and -5 are in parenthesis that means that the square goes to both of them.
And the second one there is no parenthesis so the square only goes to the x.
I hope this helps you.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeros are the values of x for which y = 0
Quadratic formula
x = [5 ± √(5² – 4·1·6)] / [2·1]
= [5 ± √1] / 2
= [5 ± 1] /2
= 2, 3
sum of zeros = 5
