Answer:
6 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale of a map is 1:10000
The real distance between two banks is 600 meters.
We are to find the distance between the two banks on the map.
This scale means that for every 1 meter on the map there are 10,000 meters on the real world.
So 600 meters on the real world would be represented by;
Cross-multiplying gives:
meters.
0.393701 is your answer :)
B. <span>No, the answer is not reasonable. It should be about 2 miles.

You haven't shared "the given value of x," or, if you have, you haven't drawn attention to it.
Just suppose we were to choose x = 4 as a possible solution and then try to find a value of the parameter k that would make x = 4 an actual solution.
2(4) + 4k - 9 = (4)(4) - (4) + 1
Then 8 + 4k - 9 = 16 - 4 + 1, or 4k - 1 = 13. Then 4k = 14, and k = 14/4, or (after reduction) k = 7/2
If the parameter k equals 7/2, then x = 4 is a solution to the given equation.
To check this out further, start with the proposed solution x = 5 and find k.
