Using proportions, it is found that the two cities are 27.5 miles apart.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

From the given scale, we have that <u>each inch of distance represents 10 miles</u>. Hence the distance in miles for a distance of 2 and 3/4 miles = 2.75 miles is given by:

D = 10 x 2.75 = 27.5 miles.

Hence, the two cities are 27.5 miles apart.

. The mean width of 12 iPads is 5.1 inches. The mean width of 8 Kindles is 4.8 inches. a. What is the total width of the iPads?

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

a) 61.2, b) 38.4 and c) 4.98

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The mean width of 12 I-Pads is 5.1 inches.

The mean width of 8 Kindles is 4.8 inches.

Question asked:

a. What is the total width of the I-Pads?

b. What is the total width of the Kindles?

c. What is the mean width of the 12 I-Pads and 8 Kindles?

Solution:

<u /> $Mean =\frac{Sum\ of\ observations}{Number\ of\ observations}\\ \\ Mean\ width =\frac{Sum\ of\ width\ of\ all \ I-pad}{Number \ of\ I-pad}$

$5.1=\frac{Sum\ of\ width\ of\ all\ I-pad}{12} \\ \\ By \ cross\ multiplication\\ \\ Sum\ of\ width\ of\ all\ I-pad}=5.1\times1 2\\ \\ Sum\ of\ width\ of\ all\ I-pad}= 61.2$

a) Thus, the total width of the I-Pads are 61.2 inches.

$Mean\ width =\frac{Sum\ of\ width\ of\ all\ Kindles}{Number \ of\ Kindles}$

$4.8=\frac{Sum\ of\ width\ of\ all\Kindles}{8} \\ \\ By \ cross\ multiplication\\ \\ Sum\ of\ width\ of\ all \ Kindles=4.8\times8\\ \\ Sum\ of\ width\ of \ all\ Kindles}=38.4$
