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.

Finding area of shaded sectors.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

69.81 sq. m. (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sector of a circle is "part" or "portion" of a circle. The formula for the area of a sector is:

$A=\frac{\theta}{360}*\pi r^2$

Where

$\theta$ is the central angle

r is the radius

Given the figure, the arc is given as 80 degrees, but not the central angle of the shaded sector. But from geometry we know that the central angle and the intercepted arc have the same measure. So we can say:

$\theta = 80$

Also, the radius of the circle shown is 10 meters, so

r = 10

Now, we substitute in formula and find our answer:

$A=\frac{\theta}{360}*\pi r^2\\A=\frac{80}{360}*\pi (10)^2\\A=\frac{2}{9}*100\pi\\A=\frac{200\pi}{9}\\A=69.81$

Thus,

The area of the shaded sector is 69.81 sq. meters.

What is the sum and the product of X to the power of 2, and X

melomori [17]

Answer:

The sum is x^2 + x, the product is x^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding x^2 and x leaves no like terms, so no simplification is required.

Multiplying gives x^2*x, which is x*x*x, which is then x^3
