If the markers are 4.5 inches away on the map, and 2.5 inches represents 10 miles, then we need to make ratios we can work with.
Inches / Miles:
4.5 / x
2.5 / 10
Now, we can cross multiply to end up with:
2.5 * x = 4.5 * 10
Simplify:
2.5x = 45
Divide 2.5 on each side:
2.5x / 2.5 = 45 / 2.5
Simplify:
x = 45 / 2.5
x = 18
Awesome! Now we have a real ratio on the real distance of the markers.
<span>2.5 : 10 & 4.5 : </span><span>18.

18 miles is the actual distance between the two markers.
Hope I could help! If my math is wrong, or it isn't the answer you are looking for, please let me know!

The answer to this question is 0.527
Answer:
w = 7 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
w + 1/8 = 8
First, subtract 1/8 from both sides of the equation
w + 1/8 = 8
- 1/8 - 1/8
w = 7 7/8
the answer is x + 3x^3 - 7x^4
Ahh ok so split it up into two rectangles:
Rectangle one:
A=lw
A=4(12)
A=48
Rectangle two:
A=lw
A=10(2)
A=20
Add both areas up to get 68 ft squared!! :)
