$\frac{531}{850} \times 100 = 62.5$

850 is 100%, so 532 is x% — this is a ratio:

850:100% = 532:x% — inverse multiplication (inner with inner, outer with outer)

x% * 850 = 100% * 532 — divide the whole eqtn with 850 to isolate x%

x% = (100% * 532) / 850
x% = 53200% / 850
x% = 62.5% (roughly)

The wind speed s (in miles per hour) is related to the distance (in miles) the tornado travels by the equation s = 93log d + 65.

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The distance the tornado traveled was approximately 205 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation representing the relationship between the wind speed (in miles per hour) and the distance the tornado travels (in miles) is:

$s=93\log d+65$

Compute the value of <em>d</em> for <em>s</em> = 280 as follows:

$s=93\log d+65$

$280=93\log d+65$

$93\log d=280-65\\93\log d=215$

$\log d=2.312\\$

$d=10^{2.312}\\d=205.035\\d\approx 205$

Thus, the distance the tornado traveled was approximately 205 miles.
