Answer:

f = 1, w = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5w = 23 - 3f → (1)

4f = 12 - 2w (add 2w to both sides )

2w + 4f = 12 ( subtract 4f from both sides )

2w = 12 - 4f → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 4 and (2) by - 3 and adding the result will eliminate f

20w = 92 - 12f → (3)

- 6w = - 36 + 12f → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate f

14w = 56 ( divide both sides by 14 )

w = 4

Substitute w = 4 into either of the 2 equations and solve for f

Substituting into (1)

5(4) = 23 - 3f

20 = 23 - 3f ( subtract 23 from both sides )

- 3 = 3f ( divide both sides by - 3 )

1 = f

The scale on a map is 1: 75 000. (a) Calculate the ACTUAL distance, in km, between two places which are 16 cm apart on the map.
finlep [7]

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

Shalnov [3]

Answer:C or 11

Step-by-step explanation:

3x²-1

First you insert x... which is 2

3(2)²-1

then you square the 2. (multiply it by itself)

3(4)-1

Then you multiply 3 by 4 to get 12

12-1

And then you subtract for your answer
