Answer:

1 inch = 0.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We basically want to know how many miles in real life 1 inch on the map represents. We already know that 4 inches on the map corresponds to 1.2 miles in real life, but we need to find what 1 inch on the map corresponds to. Let's make a proportion:

\frac{4}{1.2} =\frac{1}{x}

Cross-multiply:

4x = 1.2

Divide by 4 from both sides:

x = 1.2/4 = 0.3

Thus, the scale is 1 inch = 0.3 miles.

Hope this helps!

Things to know before we start:

  • In real life, the starting line of the race in Fultion is 1.2 miles from the finish line.
  • On a map, the starting line of the race in Fultion is 4 inches from the finish line.

To find the scale, we can set up a proportion.

1.2mi/4in

Divide to find the scale.

1.2 / 4 = 0.3 miles.

Therefore the scale of the map is 0.3 miles = 1 inch.

Best of Luck!

The time spent dancing (minutes) and the amount of calories burned can be modeled by the equation c = 5.5t. Which table of value
pishuonlain [190]
To build the table you just have to give values to t and then calculate the corresponding c a per the model.


If the model is c = 5.5 t this is the table

t          c
           5.5 t

0         5.5(0) = 0

1         5.5(1) = 5.5

2          5.5(2) = 11.0

3         5.5(3) = 16.5

4          5.5(4) = 22.0

5          5.5(5) = 27.5


The viables solutions are all where t is equal or greater than 0. You can even use decimal values for t. You cannot use negative values for t.

<1 and <2 are supplementary angles. They add up to 180 degrees.

92 and <2 are corresponding angles, they have the same measure.

So,<2 = 92 degrees

180-92= 88 degrees

<1= 88 degrees

I hope this helps!

Select the type of equations.<br> consistent<br> equivalent<br> Inconsistent
KatRina [158]

The type of equation is (a) consistent equations

<h3>How to determine the type of equation?</h3>

The attached figure completes the question

From the graph, we can see that the two lines are not parallel and they do not represent the same line

This means that the lines are consistent

Consistent lines produce consistent equations

Hence, the type of equation is (a) consistent equations
