Since this is a ratios and proportions problem, you would set up the equation like this:
1/50,000  = x/8                      x is the length of the distance on the map

After that, you cross multiply and you will get 50,000x=8  
You then solve for x to get 0.00016

Answer: B. -(x-2)^2 + 3

The vertex of the parabola is (2,3) so we can plug in those values into the equation for vertex form. And the parabola is facing down, so we know the function is multiplied by -1.

Therefore the equation is -(x-2)^2 + 3

Look at the attached image to see what vertex form is

If the product of two consecutive integers is decreased by 20 times the greater integer, the result is 442. find the integers
Contact [7]
Let the first integer be x.  Then the next consecutive integer is x+1.

Translating the word problem into symbols, x(x+1)-20(x+1) = 442.

Then x^2 + x - 20x - 20 = 442

or      x^2 - 19x - 462 = 0

Solve by completing the square:

          x^2 - 19x + 90.25 - 90.25 - 462 = 0

           (x-9.5)^2 - 552.25 = 0

Taking the positive square root of both sides, we get x-9.5 = 23.5, or
                                                                                    x        = 33

The two consecutive integers are 33 and 34.

Check:  (33)(34)-20(34) = 442 (as expected).

A cake has a mass of 2.5kg. It contains 275g of fruit. What percentage of fruit is there in the cake
Travka [436]
The answer is:  "11 %" . 
__________________________________
There is 11% of fruit in the cake.
______________________________
Explanation:
____________________________________

275g is what percent of 2.5 kg?  

First, convert "275 g" into "kg".

Note the exact conversion:  1000 g = 1 kg .  

So 275 g = (275/1000) kg  = 0.275 kg .


0.275 kg = (n/100) * 2.5 kg ; 

→ (n/100) * 2.5 = 0.275 ;
____________________________
Divide each side by "(2.5)" 
______________________
→ (n/100) = (0.275) / (2.5) ;

→ (n/100) = 0.11 ;

Multiply each side by "100" ; 

n = 11 . 
________________________________________
The answer is:  11 % .
