Answer:

150 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/2 of an inch is 20 miles, we can assume that 1/4 of an inch is 10 miles, since half of 1/2 is 1/4 and 1/2 of 20 is 10.

Equipped with this information, we can divide 3 by 1/2 or multiply 3 by the reciprical, 2/1 to get how much we should multiply 20 by.

3*2=6

20*6=120

Then we can multiply 10 by 3 and add that on our answer, since there are still 3/4s left and 1/4=10 miles.

10*3=30

120+30=150

The actual distance is 150 miles.

Hope this helps!

Which equation shows the relationship between the volume, (V) of the prism and its height (h)?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

h = V/lw

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is V = lwh. We need to use this equation and solve for h by dividing lw on both sides.

V = lwh

Answer:

From top to bottom;

1,1,3,3

Step-by-step explanation:

mathematically, for an even function;

f(x) = f(-x)

what this mean is that;

f(-1) = f(1)

f(-3) = f(3)

f(-5) = f(5)

f(-6) = f(6)

so we have it that;

f(-1) = 1

f(-3) = 1

f(-5) = 3

f(-7) = 3

If a complementary angle measures 24 more than the other what is that angle
Lelu [443]
The definition of a complementary angle is one angle who can be added to another complementary angle to sum to 90 degrees. More simply, just an angle is complementary to another angle if they add up to 90 degrees. In this case, to find the other angle, you subtract 24 from 90 which equals 66 degrees.
