Answer:

Salamander Trail is longer than Great Oak Trail

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The scale of the map is 36 mi = 6 cm

The length of Great Oak Trail = 4.5 cm

The scale of a different map is 24 mi = 3 cm

The length of Salamander Trail = 3.5 cm

Therefore, we have;

The actual length of Great Oak Trail based on the first map is given as follows;

36 mi = 6 cm

6 cm = 36 mi

1 cm = 36 mi/6 = 6 mi

4.5 cm = 4.5 × 6 mi = 27 mi

The actual length of Salamander Trail based on the second  map is given as follows;

24 mi = 3 cm

3 cm = 24 mi

1 cm = 24 mi/3 = 8 mi

3.5 cm = 3.5 × 8 mi = 28 mi

Therefore, Salamander Trail with an actual length of 28 mi is longer than Great Oak Trail which has an actual length of 27 mi.

In triangle ABC, the measure of angle B is 50 degrees. Select all possible values for the measures of A and C if ABC is an acute
galben [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angle in a triangle = 180°

<A+<B+<C = 180

Given <B = 50°

Substituting into the formula

<A+50+<C = 180

<A+<C = 180-50

<A+<C = 130°

Since the ∆ABC is an acute triangle, the angles <A and <C must be angles less than 90° since acute angles are angles less than 90°

The possible values of <A and <C that will be acute and give a sum of 130° are;

∠A= 58° and ∠C= 72°

∠A= 80° and ∠C= 50°

∠A= 60° and ∠C= 70°

You can see that all the Angles are less than 90° and their sum is 130°

Do I multiply these fractions or how do I get the simplified answer
timama [110]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to add all the fractions to find the perimeter

10 1/7+10 1/7= 20 2/7 (width)

20 2/7+35 3/7(length) =55 5/7

12 2/7+12 2/7=24 4/7

55 5/7+24 4/7= 79 9/7=80 2/7

80 2/7+ 15 3/14+ 24 1/14= 562/7+ 213/14+337/14= (1124+213+337)/14

=1674/14=119 8/14= 119 4/7
