Answer:

16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

4 cm represents 5 km. There is a total length of 20 km, so you do 20/5=4. Since you have to multiply 5 by 4 to get 20, you also multiply 4cm by 4, and you get 16, or the amount of cm that represents 20 km.

Kite FGHK is shown. <br> What is the value of m?

Georgia [21]

For this case, the first thing to do is to observe that the figure is symmetrical with respect to the FH axis.

Therefore, the following lengths are the same:

$GH = HK$

So, by equalizing both sides we have:

$5m + 1 = 3m + 7$

From here, we clear the value of m.

We have then:

$5m - 3m = 7 - 1\\2m = 6$

$m = \frac{6}{2}\\m = 3$

Answer:

The value of m is given by:

$m = 3$
