Set up a proportion.

8/127=15/x

Cross multiply

8x=1,905

Divide both sides by 8

x=238.125

The longest of the real-life distances is 238.125 km.

Hope this helps :)

Describe in words the surface whose equation is given. (assume that r is not negative.) θ = π/4
Delvig [45]
An equation in the form \theta=\dfrac{\pi}{4} is the line 
that goes through the origins and whose tangent equates \dfrac{\pi}{4}. In general, any equation in the form \theta=\theta_0
is the equation of a line.

Troy made a scale drawing of the Statue of Liberty which has an actual height of 305 feet. He decides to use a scale in which 1

The height of statue is 12.2 inches in Troy's drawing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Actual height of statue = 305 feet

Scale used by Troy;

25 feet = 1 inch

1 feet = \frac{1}{25}\ inches

305 feet = \frac{1}{25}*305 \ inches

305 feet = \frac{305}{25}\ inches\\

305 feet = 12.2 inches

The height of statue is 12.2 inches in Troy's drawing.

Factorise 125x^3 -27y^3
telo118 [61]

Answer:

(5x - 3y)(25x² +15xy + 9y²)

Step-by-step explanation:

125x³ - 27y³ is a difference of cubes and factors in general as

a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)

Given

125x³ - 27y³

= (5x)³ - (3y)³

= (5x - 3y)((5x)² + (5x)(3y) + (3y)²)

= (5x - 3y)(25x² + 15xy + 9y²)

A duck is 2 feet below the surface of a pond. If its position can be recorded as −2 feet, what would the position of 0 represent
Y_Kistochka [10]
0. Zero is zero. Moving a point 2 ft below deducts 2 from the original number(whatever it was). Moving a point 0 ft below deducts nothing so the answer is 0.

Line q will be graphed on the same grid. The only solution to the system of linear equations formed by lines n and q occurs when
bija089 [108]

Answer:

f(x) = k(x - \frac{3}{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

Line q will be graphed on the same grid. The only solution to the system of linear equations formed by lines n and q occurs when x = \frac{3}{2} and y = 0.

Now, as x = \frac{3}{2}  is a solution of the equation, y = f(x) = 0, so, (x - \frac{3}{2}) will be a factor of the linear function y = f(x).

Therefore, we can write the possible equation for the line q will be

f(x) = k(x - \frac{3}{2}). (Where k is any constant} (Answer)
