Answer:

12 cm = 21.62 miles

6 cm = 11.04 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance, set up a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by using corresponding values. We write a ratio of \frac{map}{real world} and simplify.

We know \frac{map}{real world}=\frac{0.5in}{2.3 miles}. We know the distance on the map is 12 cm and 6 cm whish converts to 4.7 inches and 2.4 inches. We can write \frac{4.7in}{xmiles} and  \frac{2.4in}{xmiles}

We set them equal.

\frac{0.5}{2.3}=\frac{4.7}{x}

and

\frac{0.5}{2.3}=\frac{2.4}{x}

To solve each proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

2.3(4.7)=0.5(x)\\10.81=0.5x\\\frac{10.81}{0.5}=\frac{0.5x}{0.5} \\21.62 miles=x

and

2.3(2.4)=0.5(x)\\5.52=0.5x\\\frac{5.52}{0.5}=\frac{0.5x}{0.5} \\11.04 miles=x

James and Bethany Morrison are celebrating their 10th anniversary by having a reception at a local reception hall. They have bud
ddd [48]

Answer: See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Create the equation:

$34 times the number of people plus the $50 cleaning fee has to be less than or equal to $3500

Or

34p + 50 <= 3500

34p <= 3450

p <= 101.470588....

We can have a part of a person attending the reception so we have to drop the remainder/decimal. Therefore the most amount of people that can attend the party and stay within budget is 101.

Two long jumpers competed in a world-class track meet. The first athlete jumped a distance of 28.65 feet, and the second athlete
ladessa [460]
Hello! This is actually pretty easy to solve, all you have to do is subtract 28.65 from 24.25 So when you subtract 5 from 5, you get zero. When you subtract 6 from 2, you get 4. When you subtract 8 from 4, you get 4, and when you subtract 2 from 2 you get zero. So all you do is take out the zeros and put the decimal point in the same place it was in before, and this should leave you with your answer!

I hope this helped!

I am, yours most sincerely,

Counting in 10s is faster than counting in ones because counting in 10s gets you to larger numbers faster because you are going by larger numbers.
