Hello!

2 centimeters = 100 kilometers
x centimeters = 20 kilometers

You can make a proportion

$\frac{2}{100} = \frac{x}{20}$

<em>Cross multiply</em>

20 × 2 = 40

40 ÷ 100 = 4/10 = 2/5 = 0.4

$\framebox{0.4 or 2/5 of a centimeter}$

When 2 cm on a map represents 100 km than 4 mm represents 20 km.

When both 2 cm and 100 km are divided this becomes 0.4 cm=20 km.

0.4 cm is equal to 4 mm.

Two slits are illuminated by a 348 nm light. The angle between the zeroth-order bright band at the center of the screen and the

Andre45 [30]

Answer:0.369 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Distance between slit and screen is $D=154 cm$

Wavelength $\lambda =348 nm$

Angle between zeroth order bright fringe and Fourth-order bright fringe is $\theta =13.5^{\circ}$

let distance between the slits be d

Distance of n th bright fringe From central Fringe is given by

$y_n=\frac{nD\lambda }{d}$

Also $\tan \theta =\frac{y_4}{D}$

$y_4=\tan (13.5)\cdot 1.54$

$y_4=0.24\times 1.54$

$y_4=0.369 m$

Car rentals involve a $130 flat fee and an additional cost of $31.67 a day what is the maximum number of days you can rent a car

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The equation is $130 + $31.67x = 500
Subtract 130 from both sides $31.67x = $370
Divide $31.67 from both sides
X=11.68
BUT
you can’t have .68 of a day so the answer is 11 days.

What is the value of 1/2 of 2/3 of 3/4 of 4/5 of 5/6 of 6/7 of 7/8 of 8/9 of 9/10 of 1000?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

it's 100

Step-by-step explanation:

9/10 of 1000 is 900, 8/9 of 900 is 800, 7/8 of 800 is 700, 6/7 of 700 is 600, 5/6 of 600 is 500, 4/5 of 500 is 400, 3/4 of 400 is 300, 2/3 of 300 is 200, and 1/2 of 200 is 100 which makes 100 the value of 1/2 of 2/3 of 3/4 of 4/5 of 5/6 of 6/7 of 7/8 of 8/9 of 9/10 of 1000? I hope this makes sense.
