36 miles. Call <span>Fort Collins point F, Cheyenne, point C, and Laramie point L. We know that angle F=46.5 degrees, angle L=43.6 degrees, and FC=3.2 inches. </span>Use the law of sines, sinF/LC=sinL/FC, LC=sin46.5*3.2/sin43.6=2.32/0.69=3.36 inches. Since one inch represents 10.6 miles, 3.36 inches is 36 miles, the distance from L to C.
The correct answer should be c) 3.
Inverse function: you need to exchange the position of x and y, in other words,
x = (5-2y^2)/(3y+10) , then, if you need a representation of y with respect to x, then you need to perform some math.
