Answer:
1.75 inches or 1 3/4inches
Step-by-step explanation:
A map has a scale of ½½inch=20mles. Quinn wants to travel an actual distance of 70miles. What will the length on the map be?
70/20
=7/2
=1/2×7/2
=7/4
=1 3/4 inches
in decimal its 1.75 inches
Check the picture below.
so we can say that two sides are "4" each in length, since opposite sides are equal, let's find how long the slanted sides are.
X is -8
To solve the problem you have to get X by itself. So you would multiply every number in the equation by 4. Which will give you -X + 12 = 20
Now you have to subtract 12 on both sides of the equal side giving you -X = 8 since the positive twelve cancels out.
Finally you divide by negative 1 since X can NOT be a negative!
Your final answer should be X = -8
I hope that helped and you know what to do now...
