We have that
scale factor=1 in/2.5 miles
<span>the actual area of a lake is 12 square miles

</span>we know that
[area on the map]=[scale factor]²*[area actual]
[area on the map]=[1/2.5]²*[12]-----> 1.92 in²

the answer is
1.92 in²

A textile company has specific dyeing and drying times for its different cloths. A roll of Cloth A requires 50 minutes of dyeing
lina2011 [118]

Answer: 9 rolls of cloth A and 44 roles of cloth B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of rolls of cloth A that can be dyed and dried.

Let y represent the number of rolls of cloth B that can be dyed and dried.

A roll of Cloth A requires 50 minutes of dyeing time. A roll of Cloth B requires 55 minutes of dyeing time. The production division allocates 2280 minutes of dyeing time. This means that

50x + 55y = 2880- - - - - - - -1

A roll of Cloth A requires 45 minutes of drying time. A roll of Cloth B requires 30 minutes of drying time. The production division allocates 1740 minutes of drying time. This means that

45x + 30y = 1740- - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 45 and equation 2 by 50, it becomes

2250x + 2475y = 129600

2250x + 1500y = 87000

Subtracting, it becomes

975y = 42600

y = 42600/975

y = 44

Substituting y = 44 into equation 1, it becomes

50x + 55 × 44 = 2880

50x + 2420 = 2880

50x = 2880 - 2420

50x = 460

x = 460/50

x = 9
