1 answer:

In order to answer that question, we need to know the scale of the map.
Without that information, no answer is possible.

I think you have it in the first part of the question ... the part you decided
not to post.

OK. Now that you've provided the scale of the map,
answering the question is a piece-o-cake.
Use a proportion:

(1 inch on the map) / (4 miles on the ground) = ('x' on the map) / (17 miles on the ground)

Solve: x2 − x − 6/x2 = x − 6/2x + 2x + 12/x After multiplying each side of the equation by the LCD and simplifying, the resultin

Vesna [10]

The resulting equation after simplyfing the given equation is 3x^2 + 20x + 12 = 0 and whoose solutions are x = -2/3 or x = -6.

According to the given question.

We have an equation

$\frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{x-6}{2x} +\frac{2x+12}{x}$

So, to find the resulting equation of the above equation we need to simplify.

First we will take LCD

$\frac{x^{2} -x - 6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{x -6+2(2x + 12)}{2x}$

$\implies \frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } =\frac{x-6+4x+24}{2x}$

$\implies \frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x^{2} } = \frac{5x +18}{2x}$

Multiply both the sides by x.

$\frac{x^{2}-x-6 }{x} = \frac{5x+18}{2}$

Again multiply both the sides by x

$2x^{2} -2x-12 = 5x^{2} +18x$

$\implies 5x^{2} -2x^{2} +18x +2x +12 = 0$

$\implies 3x^{2} + 18x+2x + 12 = 0$

Factorize the above equation

⇒3x(x+6)+2(x+6) = 0

⇒(3x + 2)(x+6) = 0

⇒ x = -2/3 or x = -6

Hence, the resulting equation after simplyfing the given equation is 3x^2 + 20x + 12 = 0 and whoose solutions are x = -2/3 or x = -6.

The packaging lists a model airplane’s length as 10.5 in. It also gives the scale as 1:83. What is the length of the actual airp

Lana71 [14]

$\bf \cfrac{\stackrel{model}{length}}{\stackrel{actual}{length}}\qquad 1:83\qquad \cfrac{1}{83}\implies \cfrac{1}{83}=\cfrac{10.5}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{83\cdot 10.5}{1}
\\\\\\
x=871.5~inches
\\\\\\
\textit{there are 12 inches in 1 foot, thus }
\\\\\\
871.5~\underline{in}\cdot \cfrac{ft}{12~\underline{in}}\implies 72.625~ft 
\qquad \approx 73~ft$
