Answer:
12 cm = 21.62 miles
6 cm = 11.04 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance, set up a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by using corresponding values. We write a ratio of 
and simplify.
We know 
. We know the distance on the map is 12 cm and 6 cm whish converts to 4.7 inches and 2.4 inches. We can write 
and 
We set them equal.
and
To solve each proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
and
System of Equations
For the problem to solve we'll use the following variables:
x = number of the early bird tickets sold
y = number of the regular tickets sold
Haley sold a total of 20 tickets, thus:
x + y = 20 [1]
Early bird tickets cost $10 and regular tickets cost $15, thus the total money collected is:
10x + 15y = 225
Dividing by 5:
2x + 3y = 45 [2]
We have to solve the system of equations [1] and [2].
Multiply [1] by -2:
-2x - 2y = -40 [3]
Add [3] to [2]:
-2x - 2y +2x + 3y = -40 + 45
Simplifying:
y = 5
Substituting in [1]:
x + 5 = 20
Subtracting 5:
x = 20 - 5
x = 15
Solution: Hayley sold 15 early bird tickets and 5 regular-priced tickets
The order pair solution is (15,5)
Answer:
Hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 16
3(x + 2) > x
3x + 6 > x
3x - 3x + 6 > x - 3x
6 > -2x
6/-2 < -2x/-2
-3< x
(When dividing by a negative, reverse the direction of the inequality side, reverse it EVERY time you divide by a negative)
ANSWER: -3 < x
