Answer:
50 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the given scale numbers by 1/2 to find your answer:
1/2 in = 100 mi
(1/2)(1/2 in) = (1/2)(100 mi) . . . . multiply the ratio values by 1/2
1/4 in = 50 mi
If A is equal to 30, and A+B equals 42. That means B equals 12. So, if the value increased with the same rate of change, it would be 54. This is because 30 plus 12 is 42. 42 plus 12 would equal 54.
Take how much was added, divide by how much you originally had. 100-80=20. 20/80= 25%
Answer:
2 hrs 13 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
If Richard can paint the living room in 4 hrs, then in 1 hour he can paint 1/4 of the living .
If Vanessa can paint the living room in 5 hours, then in one hour, she can paint 1/5 of the living room.
In one hour Richard and Vanessa can paint 1/4 + 1/5 = 1/y
y is the number of hours it will take both Richard and Vanessa to paint the living room. 1/y is how much of the house they can paint in one hour.
1/4 + 1/5 = 1/y
(5 + 4)/20. ( find the LCM)
9/20 = 1/y
9y= 20
y = 20/9
y = 2.22hrs
y = 2 hrs 13 mins
