The map scale is 6 in : 36 mi
simplify it, divide 6 from both sides
6/6 = 1
36/6 = 6
1 in : 6 mi
To find the amount of inches in 52 miles, divide 52 with 6
52/6 = 8.67 (rounded)
8.67 in should be your answer
hope this helps
Given length l=7
width w=x-8
area=42
area=wl
42=7(x-8)
42=7x-56
7x=98
x=98/7
x=14
Answer:
44 feet
If it takes the horse 44 feet per second, and it takes the cheetah 88 feet, the difference is 44.
So, the horse must be 44 feet ahead to be safe. Hope it helps!
