Given that the map reported that <span>the scale is 1 inch to 20 miles.
Recall that there are 63,360 inches in 1 mile, thus, in 20 miles, we have 20 x 63,360 = 1,267,200
Therefore, the scale of </span><span>1 inch to 20 miles can also be represented as 1 to 1,267,200</span>
2005= 18,000
2010= 45,000
1) make 2005 year "0", and 2010 year "5"
2)in order to solve this problem and figure out the rate of change, we must use the equation for exponential functions y=ab^x
3) a= the y- value of y intercept ( what does y equal when x is zero) in this case a population number so, a= 18,000; b= the unknown rate of change; x= time and since we're finding b we can plug in 5 for the time in years; y= the value of y in terms of the x-value, so when x is 5, y is 45,000
4) you end up with something like this
45,000= 18,000b^5
5) in order to proceed to solve you must get b alone
6) divide both sides by 18,000
7) so you no have 2.5= b^5
8) take the fifth root of both sides
9) now you have your answer b=<span>1.20112443398</span>
Hello!
3 inches equals 90 miles
We have to find what multiplied by 3 is 1/2
we can do 3 / 1/2 to find this
3 / 0.5 = 6
So they divide it by 6
We do 90/6
90/6 = 15
The answer is 15
Hope this helps!
