For an activity in class, student used pieces of string to measure road on a map. They used a map scale to determine the distanc

e between two cities. One group measured the distance between Fort Myers and Miami on a Florida state map. The string distance was 7.75 inches, which represents a real-life distance of about 155 miles. Another group measured the distance between Tampa and Orlando on the same map and found that distance to be 4.25 inches. What is the real-life distance to the nearest mile between Tampa and Orlando

Find an equation of the line containing the centers of the two circles whose equations are given below.
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

<h2><em>3y+x = -5</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a circle is expressed as x²+y²+2gx+2fy+c = 0 with centre at C (-g, -f).

Given the equation of the circles x²+y²−2x+4y+1  =0  and x²+y²+4x+2y+4  =0, to  get the centre of both circles,<em> we will compare both equations with the general form of the equation above as shown;</em>

For the circle with equation x²+y²−2x+4y+1  =0:

2gx = -2x

2g = -2

Divide both sides by 2:

2g/2 = -2/2

g = -1

Also, 2fy = 4y

2f = 4

f = 2

The centre of the circle is (-(-1), -2) = (1, -2)

For the circle with equation x²+y²+4x+2y+4  =0:

2gx = 4x

2g = 4

Divide both sides by 2:

2g/2 = 4/2

g = 2

Also, 2fy = 2y

2f = 2

f = 1

The centre of the circle is (-2, -1)

Next is to find the equation of a line containing the two centres (1, -2) and (-2.-1).

The standard equation of a line is expressed as y = mx+c where;

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Slope m = Δy/Δx = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

from both centres, x₁= 1, y₁= -2, x₂ = -2 and y₂ = -1

m = -1-(-2)/-2-1

m = -1+2/-3

m = -1/3

The slope of the line is -1/3

To get the intercept c, we will substitute any of the points and the slope into the equation of the line above.

Substituting the point (-2, -1) and slope of -1/3 into the equation y = mx+c

-1 = -1/3(-2)+c

-1 = 2/3+c

c = -1-2/3

c = -5/3

Finally, we will substitute m = -1/3 and c = 05/3 into the equation y = mx+c.

y = -1/3 x + (-5/3)

y = -x/3-5/3

Multiply through by 3

3y = -x-5

3y+x = -5

<em>Hence the equation of the line containing the centers of the two circles is 3y+x = -5</em>

Francis went to the sporting goods store and spent $75.15 on 6 items.
MArishka [77]

Answer:

$6.03

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking us how much each pair of socks cost. With the information we are given, we know that there are 5 pairs and that they all cost the same amount. If the total were just the 5 socks, we could easily divide the total by 5 to get the price of each pair but that's not the case. The soccer ball is included in the final cost. To overcome this, we just have to subtract the soccer ball's cost ($45) from the total.

So we subtract $45 from $75.15, giving us $30.15, the total amount of all the socks. However we need to find out how much each pair costs and there are 5 of them, so we divide 30.15 by 5. This gives us the answer, $6.03.

Each pair of socks cost $6.03.

Simpler Explanation:

  • $75.15 - $45 = $30.15
  • $30.15 / 5 = $6.03

The answer is $6.03
