The given scale for the map means that a distance of 1 cm between two locations on the map corresponds to a real distance between them of 600,000 cm = 6 km.
So, if the distance between two places in reality is 87 km, on the map this would be represented by a distance of 14.5 cm, since
87 = 84 + 3
87 = 6 • 14 + 6 • (1/2)
87 = 6 • (14 + 1/2)
Answer: 40 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
It takes 16 minutes for the first 2 stations to water their sections which means that the time taken per station is:
= 16/2
= 8 minutes per station
Ms. Reynolds has 5 stations.
Total time taken will therefore be:
= 8 * 5
= 40 minutes
The answer to the question
Answer:
This can not be properly answered, because we do not have the length of each trail.
The first step here will be find the length, in miles, for each of the four trails.
As students choose all four trails, the number of miles that each student will bike is equal to the addition of the lenght of the four trails.
Suppose this number is N.
So each student bike N miles, and the company donates $1.75 per mile. Then the amount of money that a single student is N times $1.75, or N*$1.75
