Answer:
Part a) The distance on a map between Joseph's house and the airport is 2.53 inches
Part b) The distance on a map between the airport and the restaurant is 1.68 inches and the total distance on a map between Joseph's house and the restaurant is 4.21 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a) The actual distance between Joseph's house and the airport is 24 miles. How far apart are Joseph's house and the airport on the map?
we know that
The scale of a map is 1 inch : 9.5 miles
so
using proportion
Find the distance on a map if the actual distance between Joseph's house and the airport is 24 miles
Let
x-----> the distance on a map
1/9.5=x/24
x=24/9.5=2.53 inches
Part b) Joseph traveled from his house to the airport. He then traveled another 16 miles past the airport to a restaurant. How many inches on the map represent this distance?
we know that
The scale of a map is 1 inch : 9.5 miles
so
using proportion
Find the distance on a map if the actual distance between airport to the restaurant is 16 miles
Let
x-----> the distance on a map
1/9.5=x/16
x=16/9.5=1.68 inches
The total distance on a map between Joseph's house and the restaurant is equal to
2.53 inches+1.68 inches=4.21 inches

Answer:
180 strips
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that:
1 yard = 36 inches
5 yards = x
Cross Multiply
x = 5 × 36 inches
x = 180 inches
Hence:
1 piece of fabric = 180 inches
How many 1-inch strips can be cut from the fabric?
180 inches = 1 piece of fabric
1 inch = x
x = 180 strips
700x0.08= 56 Hope this helps
