It would be greater than the original value think of (-) #s like debts that need to be payed off and if you get a friend to pay the debt with you then you each have to pay less than you would alone however b/cus the #s are negative the closer they are to zero the larger the number is

Two towns that are 31.5 km apart are 3 cm apart on a map. what is the scale of the map?
VLD [36.1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

1 cm : 10.5 km

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given that two towns are 31.5 km in real and are 3 cm apart on a map and we are to find the scale of the map.

For this, we can use the ratio method.

\frac { 3 cm } { 1 c m } = \frac { 3 1 . 5 k m } { x }

x = \frac { 3 1 . 5 \times 1 } { 3 }

x = 1 0 . 5

Therefore, the scale of the map would be 1 cm : 10.5 km.

Could I have some help on my patterns assignment​
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

1. 13, 18, 23, 28, 33, 38, 43, 48, 53

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is 5 more than the previous term.

2. 512, 256, 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is half of the previous term.

3. 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, 343, 512, 729

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is a cube. To find the nth term, cube n.

4. 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is the next consecutive prime number.

5. <u><em>Correct as is</em></u>

6. 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89

<em>Conjecture:</em> Each term is the sum of the 2 previous numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

Given: 13, 18, 23, 28

<em>We add 5 to each number</em>

13 + 5 = 18

18 + 5 = 23

23 + 5 = 28

28 + 5 = 33

33 + 5 = 38

38 + 5 = 43

43 + 5 = 48

48 + 5 = 53

2.

Given : 512, 256, 128, 64

<em>Divide each number by 2</em>

512 ÷ 2 =256

256 ÷ 2 = 128

128 ÷ 2 = 64

64 ÷ 2 = 32

32 ÷ 2 = 16

16 ÷ 2 = 8

8 ÷ 2 = 4

4 ÷ 2 = 2

3.

Given: 1, 8, 27, 64

<em>We have to cube n:</em>

<u><em>n³ = consecutive number cubed</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

1³ = 1 or 1 × 1 × 1

2³ = 8 or 2 × 2 × 2

3³ = 27 or 3 × 3 × 3

4³ = 64 or 4 × 4 × 4

5³ = 125 or 5 × 5 × 5

6³ = 216 or 6 × 6 × 6

7³ = 343 or 7 × 7 × 7

8³ = 512 or 8 × 8 × 8

9³ = 729 or 9 × 9 × 9

4.

Consecutive prime number: <u><em>Consecutive prime numbers are those that have no gaps or prime numbers between them.</em></u>

Look at the picture in the link:

6.

Given: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8

<em>We must add the two previous numbers to get the next term:</em>

1 + 1 = 2

1 + 2 = 3

2 + 3 = 5

3 + 5 = 8

5 + 8 = 13

8 + 13 = 21

13 + 21 = 34

21 = 34 = 55

34 + 55 = 89
