The scale of the map from inches to miles is 1 inch : 9 miles

<h3>How to determine the scale of the map from inches to miles?</h3>

The given parameters are:

The actual distance of the cities apart = 36 miles
The scale distance of the cities apart = 4 inches

The scale of the map from inches to miles is represented as:

Scale of map = The scale distance of the cities apart : The scale distance of the cities apart

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Scale of map = 4 inches : 36 miles

Divide both sides of the ratio by 4

So, we have:

Scale of map = 4/4 inches : 36/4 miles

Evaluate the quotient

Scale of map = 4/4 inches : 9 miles

Evaluate the quotient

Scale of map = 1 inch : 9 miles

Hence, the scale of the map from inches to miles is 1 inch : 9 miles

a recipe for cookies calls for 10 1/6 cups of sugar. krystal has already put in 4 2/3 cups. how many more cups does she need to

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

5 1/2 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

10 1/6 = $\frac{61}{6} cups$

10 x 6 + 1

$\frac{61}{6}$

4 2/3 = $\frac{14}{3} cups$

4 x 3 + 2

$\frac{14}{3}$

Find a common denominator (6)

$\frac{14}{3} = \frac{28}{6}$

$\frac{14}{3}$ · 2 = $\frac{28}{6}$

$\frac{61}{6} - \frac{28}{6} = \frac{33}{6}$

$\frac{33}{6}$ or 5 1/2 cups

The amount of carbon-14 in an object is given by y = ae– 0.00012t where a is the initial amount of carbon and t is the age in ye

Reptile [31]

Answer:

The approximate age of the bone is approximately 11552 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The current proportion of carbon-14 with respect to its original amount is defined by following formula:

$\frac{y}{a} = e^{-0.00012\cdot t}$ (1)

Where:

$y$ - Current amount of carbon-14, no unit.

$a$ - Initial amount of carbon-14, no unit.

$t$ - Time, in years.

If we know that $\frac{y}{a} = 0.25$ , then the approximate age of the bone is:

$t = -8333.333\cdot \ln \frac{y}{a}$

$t\approx 11552.453\,yr$

The approximate age of the bone is approximately 11552 years.
