We have been given that the scale on a trail map is 0.5 cm : 1 km. The straight distance between 2 huts on the trail is 16.9 cm. We are asked to find the actual distance between 2 huts.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

\frac{\text{Actual length}}{\text{Scale length}}=\frac{\text{1 km}}{\text{0.5 cm}}

\frac{\text{Actual length}}{\text{16.9 cm}}=\frac{\text{1 km}}{\text{0.5 cm}}

\frac{\text{Actual length}}{\text{16.9 cm}}\times \text{16.9 cm}=\frac{\text{1 km}}{\text{0.5 cm}}\times \text{16.9 cm}

\text{Actual length}=\frac{\text{1 km}}{\text{0.5}}\times \text{16.9}

\text{Actual length}=33.8\text{ km}

Therefore, the actual distance between both huts is 33.8 km.

P and q are integers that are multiple of 5. Which of this
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

we conclude that the only option (a) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that the multiples of 5 are the numbers which we get when we multiply by 5.

i.e.

5×1=5

5×2=10

Here, 5 and 10 are multiples of 5.

Let p and q are integers that are multiples of 5.

Let us consider

p=5

q=10

so

p+q=5+10

     = 15

A number is divisible by 5 if it ends in 5 or 0.

i.e. 15/5 = 3

so p+q is divisible by 3 as there is no remainder left.

Therefore, option (a) is true.

Checking the other options:

(b) P –q is divisible by 10

As

p=5

q=10

so

p-q=5-10

     = -5

Numbers that are divisible by 10 need to be even or divisible by 2 and divisible by 5.

As -5 is not divisible by 2.

So, option b is NOT true.

(c) P +q is divisible by 20

As

p=5

q=10

so

p-q=5+10

     = 15

Divisibility rule of  20  implies that the last two digits of the number are either  00  or divisible by  20 .

Therefore, P + q= 20 is not divisible by 20 as we don't get the whole number.

(d) P + q is divisible by 25​

As

p=5

q=10

so

p-q=5+10

     = 15

p+q=15 is not divisible by 25 as it does not end with 00, 25, 50, or 75.

so, option d is NOT correct.

Therefore, we conclude that the only option (a) is true.

Which one doesn’t belong? Why? Explain. please help me
My name is Ann [436]

Hi! So, the one that doesn't belong is a) y = 4x.

I think that this doesn't belong because every other option has a number after the variable (I forget the exact term for it but it's like +7, +4, and -1 for the rest of the options)

Please let me know how I can further help you :)
