Answer:

1 in : 50 mi . . . or . . . 1 : 3,168,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing the areas by 10, you get 1 square inch corresponding to 2500 square miles. Those areas are equivalent to 1 inch square and 50 miles square. Hence the scale factor is 1 inch : 50 miles.

Sometimes map scales are expressed as a dimensionless ratio. The number of inches in 50 miles is

... (50 mi)×(5280 ft/mi)×(12 in/ft) = 3,168,000 in

so, the map scale can be expressed as 1 : 3,168,000.

Answer:

  3/4; 1/4, 1/4, 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The intent here is to let you demonstrate your understanding that multiplication by an integer is the same as repeated addition.

Your knowledge of fractions tells you ...

  \dfrac{1}{4}\times3=\dfrac{3}{4}

The factor of 3 means this is equivalent to adding 1/4 a total of 3 times:

  \dfrac{1}{4}\times3=\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

y= -0.3x - 5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

m= (-5)-(-8)/(-2)-8

m= -0.3

y=mx+c

-8= -0.3(8)+c

-8= -2.4 +c

-8+2.4=c

c= -28/5

y= -0.3x - 5.6

Find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to 4y-3x=1 and passes through point (-7,0).
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

-4/3x + -28/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you rearrange 4y-3x=1

y= 3/4x +1/4

then you reciprocate and change the sign the slope since you are trying to find a line perpendicular to it.

Slope(m) =-4/3

then you use the formula <em>y-y1= m(x-x1)</em>

y-0= -4/3 (x--7)

y= -4/3 +-28/3
