Answer:
The distance from Endnville to Concord = 14.8 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ Westfalls is 7 miles South of Endnville
∵ Concord is 13 miles West of Westfalls
∵ South and West are ⊥
∴ The distance from Endnville to Concord = √(7)² + (13)²
= 14.8 miles
12 + 6x + 6x + 6y = 12 + 12x + 6y
Let the actual distance be x mile.
1/4 inch = 1/2 mile
9/2 inch = x mile
(9/2)/(1/4)=x/(1/2)
18=2x
x=9
the actual distance is 9 mile.
