Answer:
153 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1 inch = 36 miles.
First, find the measurement of miles for 1/4 inch. Divide 36 with 4:
36/4 = 9
1/4 inch. = 9 miles.
Next, find the amount of measurement of miles per 4 inches:
4 x 36 = 144 miles.
Finally, combine the two measurements together:
144 + 9 = 153 miles.
153 miles is your answer.

Answer:
4x + 2y
Step-by-step explanation:
If you subtract 5x + 3y from 9x + 5y, you get:
9x + 5y
<u> - 5x + 3y</u>
4x + 2y
Let the number be x
3x - 5 = 14
3x = 19
X = 6 1/3 or 6.333333...
Because it was reflected across the x axis, the distance between the two points is twice the distance of the old point from the x axis, and the distance from the old point from the x axis equals the distance from the new point to the x axis. The distance from the x axis is the absolute value of the x=y value. 7.5 is the y value, meaning the point is 7.5 units away from y=0, the x axis. The new point is twice this from the old point. 7.5 x 2 = 15. The new point is 15 units away from the old point.
Answer:
26 rows
Step-by-step explanation:
this is like a rectangle length×width situation.
seats per row = s
number of rows = r
s × r = 884
s = r + 8
so, we can use e.g. the second equation in the first :
(r + 8) × r = 884
r² + 8r = 884
r² + 8r - 884 = 0
the general solution to such a quadratic equation is
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
in our case
x = r
a = 1
b = 8
c = -884
r = (-8 ± sqrt(8² - 4×1×-884))/(2×1) =
= (-8 ± sqrt(64 + 3536))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(3600))/2 =
= (-8 ± 60)/2 = -4 ± 30
r1 = -4 + 30 = 26
r2 = -4 - 30 = -34
a negative number did not make any sense for the number of rows, so r = 26 is our answer.
