Given:

The length between points on a map is 6 inches, 8 inches, and 9 inches.

The scale is one inch equals 5 miles.

To find:

The distances in miles.

Solution:

The given scale is:

1 inch = 5 miles

Using this scale, we get

6 inches = 6 × 5 miles

= 30 miles

8 inches = 8 × 5 miles

= 40 miles

9 inches = 9 × 5 miles

= 45 miles

The distance is miles are 30, 40, 45 miles.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Dy/dx = y/x , y(1) = −2

s2008m [1.1K]

Start with

$\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{y}{x}$

Separate the variables:

$\dfrac{dy}{y} = \dfrac{dx}{x}$

Integrate both parts:

$\displaystyle \int \dfrac{dy}{y} = \int\dfrac{dx}{x}$

Which implies

$\log(y) = \log(x)+c$

Solving for y:

$y = e^{\log(x)+c} = e^{\log(x)}e^c=xe^c$

Since $e^c$ is itself a constant, let's rename it $c_1$ .

Fix the additive constant imposing the condition:

$y(1) = c_1\cdot 1 = -2\iff c_1=-2$

So, the solution is

$y(x) = -2x$
