Mathematics
1 answer:
bagirrra123 [75]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation will have infinite solutions when it is a tautology--when both sides say exactly the same thing.

Eliminate parentheses, match coefficients, and solve for b.

  ax +ab = 4x +10

  a = 4 . . . . . . coefficient of x

  ab = 10 . . . . constant

Since we know a, we can find b:

  4b = 10

  b = 10/4 . . . . . . . divide by 4

  b = 5/2 = 2.5 . . .express in your favorite form

The scale drawing has a scale of 1/2 in: 8 mi. Find the length on the drawing for 2 in Please answer asap​
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

32 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using proportions.

\frac{\frac{1}{2}in}{8 mi} =\frac{2in}{y}

Find the scale factor (how to get from left to right)

To get from left numerator to right numerator, multiply by 4.

(1/2) X 4 = 2

The scale factor is 4.

Multiply the left denominator by the scale factor to get "y".

8 mi X 4 = 32 mi

Therefore 2 inches represent 32 miles.
