Answer:

Actual distance between the two cities given on the map = 78.0 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale used for the actual distance between two cities on a map is,

5 in. = 15 mi.

\frac{5}{15} in. = \frac{15}{15} mi.

1 mi. = \frac{1}{3} in.

1 inch = 3 miles

Therefore, 26 inches on the map = 26 × 3

                                                        = 78 miles

Therefore, actual distance between the two cities given on the map = 78.0 miles

The worlds two highest dams are both in Tajikistan. The rogue dam is 35 meters taller than the Nurek dam. together they are 635
galina1969 [7]
This is a sum and difference problem, with the equations
R-N=35
R+N=635
The solution of which is
R=(635+35)/2=335
N=(635-35)/2=300

In general, the sum and difference problem can be solved (most of the time mentally) using
Larger number = (sum + difference)/2
Smaller number = (sum - difference)/2

What is the answer you this question
8_murik_8 [283]
Hello!

First, you will need to subtract -2 from 4 (4-(-2)). You'll need to do this because to find the slope, you'll need to subtract y² w/ y1 or 4-(-2) and divide it by x² - x1 or -1-(-3). So once you set up the equation it'll look like this...

4-(-2)/-1-(-3)

Now after you've subtracted the numbers, your equation will look like this...

6/2

You'll then divide 6 by 2 and your slope will be 3

I hope this helps!

What is x^3-2x^2-4x-1 divided by X+1?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

<u>x^2-3x-1</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

x^3-2x^2-4x-1/x+1

First factor the equation:

(x+1)(x^2-3x-1)/x+1

Then cancel the common factor: x+1 to solve the equation:

x^2-3x-1
