Answer:

a. 1 200 000 km

b. 0.000 773 cm

c. 67 500 000 000 km²

d. 0.000 000 016 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Calculate the ACTUAL distance, in km, between two places which are 16 cm apart on the map.

Since the scale is 1 : 75000 that is 1 cm : 75000 km, we want to find the actual distance of 16 cm on the map. Let x be the actual distance in km.

So, 1 cm : 75000 km = 16 cm : x km

So, 1 cm/75000 km = 16 cm/x km

Thus x km = 16 cm × 75000 km/1 cm = 1 200 000 km

(b) Calculate length of a road on the map which is 0.58 km.

Let y be the length of road on the map. So, using our scale

1 cm : 75000 km = y cm : 0.58 km

So, 1 cm/75000 km = y cm/0.58 km

Thus y cm = 0.58 km × 1 cm/75000 km = 0.000 773 cm

(c) Calculate, in km², the ACTUAL area of a lake which is 12 cm2 on the map.

Since the scale is 1 : 75000 , the scale for the area would be the square of this. So, 1² : 75000² = 1 : 5 625 000 000 which is 1 cm² : 5 625 000 000 km²

Let z be the actual area of the lake.

So,  1 cm² : 5 625 000 000 km² = 12 cm² : z km²

So, 1 cm²/5 625 000 000 km² = 12 cm²/z km²

Thus z km² = 12 cm² × 5 625 000 000 km²/1 cm² = 67 500 000 000 km²

(d) Calculate the area of a play field on the map which has has an actual area of 90 km².

Let a represent the area of the play field on the map. Using our scale for the area,

1 cm² : 5 625 000 000 km² = a cm² : 90 km²

So, a cm² = 90 km² × 1/5 625 000 000 km² = 0.000 000 016 cm²

the population P (t) of a culture of bacteria is given by P (t) =-1710t +92,000t+10,000, where t is the time in hours since the
Akimi4 [234]

The question might have some mistake since there are 2 multiplier of t. I found a similar question as follows:

The population P(t) of a culture of bacteria is given by P(t) = –1710t^2+ 92,000t + 10,000, where t is the time in hours since the culture was started. Determine the time at which the population is at a maximum. Round to the nearest hour.

Answer:

27 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of population P(t) = –1710t^2+ 92,000t + 10,000

Find the derivative of the function to find the critical value

dP/dt = -2(1710)t + 92000

         = -3420t + 92000

Find the critical value by equating dP/dt = 0

-3420t + 92000 = 0

92000 = 3420t

t = 92000/3420 = 26.90

Check if it really have max value through 2nd derivative

d(dP)/dt^2 = -3420

2nd derivative is negative, hence it has maximum value

So, the time when it is maximum is 26.9 or 27 hours

Tems11 [23]
Checking if the sequence is an arithmetic sequence 7 - 1 = 6 13 – 7 = 6 Therefore the sequence is arithmetic, with a_0 = 1 and d = 6 a_n = a_0 + (n-1)d a_30 = 1 + (29)(6) = 175 Therefore the 30th term is 175.

You discovered you can deduct medical expenses over 6% of your income. Your income is $42,000 and you had medical expenses of $5
iren2701 [21]

No portion of your medical expenses you can deduct

Step-by-step explanation:

You discovered you can deduct medical expenses over 6% of

your income

Your income is $42,000

You had medical expenses of $567

We need to find the portion of your medical expenses you can deduct

∵ Your income = $42,000

∵ You can deduct medical expenses over 6% of your income

- Find the 6% for your income

∵ 6% of the income = \frac{6}{100} × 42,000 = $2520

∴ 6% of your income is $2520

∵ You can deduct medical expenses over 6% of your income

∴ If your medical expenses greater than $2520, then you can

   deduct the value greater than it, but if your medical expenses

   smaller than $2520, then you can not deduct any value

∵ You had medical expenses of $567

∵ $567 < $2520

∴ There is no value you can deduct from your medical expenses

No portion of your medical expenses you can deduct
