Answer:

Part a) The distance on a map between Joseph's house and the airport is 2.53 inches

Part b) The distance on a map between the airport and the restaurant is 1.68 inches and the total distance on a map between Joseph's house and the restaurant is 4.21 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) The actual distance between Joseph's house and the airport is 24 miles. How far apart are Joseph's house and the airport on the map?

we know that

The scale of a map is 1 inch : 9.5 miles

so

using proportion

Find the distance on a map if the actual distance between Joseph's house and the airport is 24 miles

Let

x-----> the distance on a map

1/9.5=x/24

x=24/9.5=2.53 inches

Part b) Joseph traveled from his house to the airport. He then traveled another 16 miles past the airport to a restaurant. How many inches on the map represent this distance?

we know that

The scale of a map is 1 inch : 9.5 miles

so

using proportion

Find the distance on a map if the actual distance between airport to the restaurant is 16 miles

Let

x-----> the distance on a map

1/9.5=x/16

x=16/9.5=1.68 inches

The total distance on a map between Joseph's house and the restaurant is equal to

2.53 inches+1.68 inches=4.21 inches

The local hardware store wants to increase their inventory. last year 15 electric screwdrivers cost them $300. at the same cost,

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Cost of 45 screwdrivers will be = $900

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year 15 electric screwdrivers cost to the local hardware store = $300

So per screwdriver cost = $\frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Total number of screw drivers}}$

= $\frac{300}{15}$

= $20

Now we have to calculate the cost of 45 screw drivers.

Since cost of 1 screwdriver = $20

So cost of 45 screwdrivers = 20×45 = $900

David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9. Frances gets ?80 more than David. Explain how you know Egil gets ?80.

Natalija [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9.

Let 2x, 7x and 9x be the amounts of money that David, Agil and Frances get respectively.

We are told that Frances gets $80 more than David. So we can write this information in an equation as:

$9x=2x+80$

Now let us solve for x.

$9x-2x=80$

$7x=80$

$x=\frac{80}{7}$

Now let us substitute $x=\frac{80}{7}$ in 7x (amount of money that Egil gets).

$\text{ Amount of money that Egil will get}=7\cdot \frac{80}{7}$

Upon cancelling out 7 from numerator and denominator we will get,

$\text{ Amount of money that Egil will get}=80$

Therefore, Egil will get $80.
