Step-by-step explanation:
when the scale says 1:500000, then that means 1 unit in the map corresponds to 500000 units in reality.
and so, 3.2 cm on the map are
3.2 × 500000 cm in reality.
3.2 × 500000 = 1,600,000 cm = 16,000 m = 16 km
Solution :
2a + 2b = 7 ...1)
4a + 3b = 12 ...2)
In equation, 1)
a = (7 - 2b)/2 ...3)
Putting value of a in equation 2) we get :
4 × (7 - 2b)/2 + 3b = 12
2( 7 - 2b ) + 3b = 12
14 - 4b + 3b = 12
b = 2
Putting value of b in 3) we get :
a = ( 7 - 2×2)/2
a = 3/2 = 1.5
Now,
2x - 3y = 16 ...5)
x + 2y = -6 ...6)
x = -6 - 2y
Putting above value of x in eq 5) , we get :
2( -6 - 2y ) - 3y = 16
-12 - 4y - 3y = 16
7y = -28
y = -4
x = -6 - ( 2× -4 )
x = 2
Hence, this is the required solution.
Let p and w represent the speed of the plane and the speed of the wind, respectively.
.. speed = distance/time
.. p +w = 720/3 = 240
.. p -w = 720/4 = 180
Add the two equations to eliminate w.
.. 2p = 420
.. p = 210
.. w = p -180 = 30
The speed of the wind is 30 mph.
The speed of the plane in still air is 210 mph.
Answer: the percent of study group students from outside the state is 13%
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of students in the young woman's study group that are from the town where the young woman's school is located is 7%
The total number of students in the young woman's study group that are from in-state (but not from the school's town) is 80%.
Since the rest are from outside the state, the percent of study group students from outside the state would be
100 - (80 + 7) = 100 - 87 = 13%
