Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3 ( x + 1 ) = 5 ( x- 2 ) + 7

Expand

3 x + 3 = 5 x - 10 + 7

Minus 5 x from both sides

- 2 x + 3 = - 10 + 7

Minus 3 from both sides

- 2 x = - 10 + 4

Simplify

- 2 x = - 6

Divide both sides by - 2

x = 3

igomit [66]

Answer:

A) 1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

#We first calculate the campus' area:

$a=lw\\\\=\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{2}\\=0.125 \ mi^2$

#We then calculate the campus' map area in square ft:

$A=lw\\\\=0.5 \times 1\\\\=0.5 ft^2$

Ratio is a comparison between two dimensions:

$Ratio=\frac{0.125}{0.5}\\\\=0.25\\\\=\frac{1}{4}\\\\=1:4$

Hence, the ratio of the area in square miles of the campus to the area in square feet of the map is 1:4
