On a road map, 1 5/8 inches represents 10 miles. How many miles does 2.25 inches represent

Mathematics
1 answer:
nlexa [21]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Map and road distances are proportional, so you can write ...

  (10 mi)/(1 5/8 in) = (x mi)/(2 1/4 in)

Multiplying by 2 1/4 in gives ...

  x mi = (10 mi)(2 1/4)/(1 5/8)

    = (10 mi)(18/8)/(13/8) = 180/13 mi ≈ 13.85 mi

The distance represents about 13.85 miles.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer: 162.6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

4 boys have a mean height of 162cm. Their total height will be the average multiplied by the number of boys which will be:

= 162 × 4

= 648cm

A new boy with height of 165cm joined. This means that we now have 5 boys and their total height will be:

= 648cm + 165cm

= 813cm

The new mean height will be:

= Total height / Number of boys

= 813 / 5

= 162.6cm

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

the scale is 630:1 = 0.16%

80inch^2 of 50400inch^2 however = 0.16%

Step-by-step explanation:

350ft^2 = 50400inches 8 x 10 = 80inches = 50400/80 = 630

50400/9 =5600 we distribute

5600/80 = 7

showing us that 7 x 9 = 63 where 63 x 80 = 5040 1/100th

1 = 630

7x9x 80 = 1/100 of 50400

0.01589 x 7x9x80x 7x9x80 = 80

Proves that every every 10000 the percentage goes down 0.00011%

12 months in a year. So 18 months= 1 year and 6 months. Izzys dog is 10 1/2= 10 years and six months. Then subtract 1 year and 6 months by 10 year and six months and it would be exactly 9 years older.
