Mathematics

kupik [55]2 years ago

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A map can either be scaled up or scaled down. If the map is enlarged then it is scaled up and hence represented by n:1, where n > 1. While is the map is reduced, it is scaled down and is represented by 1 : n, where n < 1.

Since one box has a length of 1 cm by 1 cm. The distance between A and B is 4 boxes = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Hence the scale is given as 1:n, where n > 1. n is gotten from:

n = 960 m / 0.04 m = 24000

Therefore the scale is 1 : 24000

Please show the steps I need this right now I’m taking a test8(x−4)&lt;7x−3
Olegator [25]

Answer:

x < 29

Step-by-step explanation:

8(x−4)<7x−3; distribute 8 in the parenthesis

8x - 32 < 7x - 3; subtract 7x from both sides

x - 32 < -3; add 32 to both sides

x < 29

Umm it’s to question just label it a and b
xxMikexx [17]

A) Scale of map is 1: 30,000

This is assuming that it meant 1 centimetre = 30,000 metres, for it gives no other information.

Multiply 1 with 30,000: 30,000 x `1 = 30,000

30,000 metres is your answer.

B) Scale is 1 inch: 6 miles. You are given 2.5 inches.

Remember that 1 inch = 6 miles.

Multiply 2.5 to both sides: (2.5) * 1 inch = (2.5) * 6 miles

2.5 inch = 2.5 * 6 miles

2.5 inch = 15 miles

15 miles is your answer.
