Answer:

1,267,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the map reported that the scale is 1 inch to 20 miles.

Recall that there are 63,360 inches in 1 mile, thus, in 20 miles, we have 20 x 63,360 = 1,267,200

Therefore, the scale of 1 inch to 20 miles can also be represented as 1 to 1,267,200

Tomtit [17]

The answer is that Jade's chickens laid more eggs. Since Jade's farm includes 9 chickens, which each laid 3 eggs, multiply 9 and 3 and you get 27. Edna's farm has chickens which, in total, laid 23 eggs, leading to Jade's chickens with 27 eggs to be more than the eggs laid by Edna's chickens. :)

In a game of cornhole, Sasha tossed a bean bag and it landed at the edge of the hole. The hole can be represented by the equatio
Nitella [24]

In the game of cornhole, when Sasha tossed a bean bag to the edge of the hole, in which the equations of the hole and bean bag's path are x² + y² = 5 and y = 0.5x² + 1.5x - 4, respectively, she could have tossed her bean bag to the points (1, -2) or (2, 1).              

 

To find the points in which she could have tossed her bean bag, we need to intersect the two equations of the function as follows.

<u>The equation for the hole</u>

x^{2} + y^{2} = 5   (1)

<u>The equation for the path of the bean bag</u>

y = 0.5x^{2} + 1.5x - 4    (2)

By entering equation (2) into (1) we have:  

x^{2} + (0.5x^{2} + 1.5x - 4)^{2} = 5

x^{2} + 0.25x^{4} + 1.5x^{3} - 4x^{2} + 2.25x^{2} - 12x + 16 = 5    

0.25x^{4} + 1.5x^{3} - 0.75x^{2} - 12x + 11 = 0

By solving for <em>x</em>, we have:

x₁ = 1

x₂ = 2

Now, for <em>y</em> we have (eq 2):

  • <u>x₁ = 1</u>    

y_{1} = 0.5(1)^{2} + 1.5(1) - 4 = -2

  • <u>x₂ = 2</u>

y_{2} = 0.5(2)^{2} + 1.5(2) - 4 = 1                                              

Therefore, the points are (1, -2) or (2, 1).

A set of notations (SSS, SAS, ASA and RHS) is used to describe/prove that two triangles are conjurent. For each pair of triangle
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements are not given but from this definition, you should be able to select the correct statement.

Triangles are said to be congruent if they have the same size and shape. A triangle is made up of six (three sides and three angles) but only three is usually needed to prove triangle congruence. These are:

a) Side - Side - Side (SSS): Two triangles are congruent if the length of their three sides are equal to each other.

b) Side- angle- side (SAS): If two sides and one angle of a triangle is equal to two sides and a angle of another triangle then the two triangles are congruent to each other.

c) Angle - side - angle (ASA): If two angles and a side of a triangle are equal to a corresponding two angles and a side of another triangle then the two triangles are congruenr.

d) Right angle - hypotenuse - side (RHS): If for two right angled triangles, their hypotenuse and a side (leg) are equal, then the two triangles are congruent.

If you take out a $15,000 loan for a period of 36 months at a 5.4% annual interest rate, how much of your first monthly payment
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The amount that will go towards the balance is 385.71.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is:

P = Principal of loan = $15,000

r = interest rate = 5.4% p.a. = \frac{0.054}{12}= 0.0045

n = number of periods = 36

The amount of the monthly payment that will go towards the balance is:

Amount towards the balance = EMI - Interest  

First compute the Equated monthly installments (EMI) as follows:

EMI=\frac{P\times r\times (1+r)^{n}}{(1+r)^{n}-1} \\=\frac{15000\times0.0045\times(1+0.0045)^{36}}{(1+0.0045)^{36}-1} \\=\frac{79.3125}{0.175}\\=453.21

Now compute the interest as follows:

Interest=P\times r\\=15000\times0.0045\\=67.5

The amount that will go towards the balance is,

Amount towards the balance = EMI - Interest  

                                                 = 453.21 - 67.5

                                                 = 385.71

Thus, the amount that will go towards the balance is 385.71.
