Answer: The required proportion is

\dfrac{10}{4}=\dfrac{x}{20}.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the scale on a map shows that 10 kilometers is represented by 4 centimeters.

We are to find the proportion can be used to find the actual distance, x, represented by 20 centimeters on the map.

We have

4 centimeters on the map = 10 kilometers.

So, 1 centimeter on the map =\dfrac{10}{4}~\textup{kilometers}.

Also,

20 centimeters on the map = x kilometers.

So, 1 centimeter on the map \dfrac{x}{20}~~\textup{kilometers}.

Therefore, we must have

\dfrac{10}{4}=\dfrac{x}{20}.

Thus, the required proportion is

\dfrac{10}{4}=\dfrac{x}{20}.

Solve each equation. Check your solution.<br><br> 7a+10=2a
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

7a + 10 = 2a

subtract 7a from each side

7a-7a+10 = 2a-7a

10 = -5a

divide by -5

10/-5 = -5a/-5

-2 = a

check

7 (-2) +10 = 2(-2)

-14 + 10 = -4

-4 = -4
