C. -5.4 -17.6+12.2= -5.4 because -17.6 goes first in the calculator but also its a negative
Answer:
The actual area of the town is 14 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you know that the scale is 1 inch:4 miles and that the map shows a town with an area of 3.5 inches, you can expressed this as follows:
Scale: 1 inch:4 miles
map area: 3.5 inches
If the actual area is x, you can say that:
3.5:x=1:4
This would be:

Now, you can solve for x:
x=(3.5*4)/1
x=14
According to this, the answer is that the actual area of the town is 14 miles.
Answer:
A scale to plot data
It is hard to tell the difference between the choices. If they are the following:
- a starting point with equal intervals that follow
- a stopping point for the data that can fit on the graph
- a way to locate data
- a scale to plot data
Answer:
3 hours + 5hours = 8 hours ÷ 2 =
4 hours is your answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you have 2 people working and need to know how long it would take them to finish a job. Working together on the same job, you add each of their total hours to do the job alone,, 5 + 3 = 8, then divide the 8 by 2 people
equals 4 hours for 2 people on 1 job.
Question 9
Given the segment XY with the endpoints X and Y
Given that the ray NM is the segment bisector XY
so
NM divides the segment XY into two equal parts
XM = MY
given
XM = 3x+1
MY = 8x-24
so substituting XM = 3x+1 and MY = 8x-24 in the equation
XM = MY
3x+1 = 8x-24
8x-3x = 1+24
5x = 25
divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 25/5
x = 5
so the value of x = 5
As the length of the segment XY is:
Length of segment XY = XM + MY
= 3x+1 + 8x-24
= 11x - 23
substituting x = 5
= 11(5) - 23
= 55 - 23
= 32
Therefore,
The length of the segment = 32 units
Question 10)
Given the segment XY with the endpoints X and Y
Given that the line n is the segment bisector XY
so
The line divides the segment XY into two equal parts at M
XM = MY
given
XM = 5x+8
MY = 9x+12
so substituting XM = 5x+8 and MY = 9x+12 in the equation
XM = MY
5x+8 = 9x+12
9x-5x = 8-12
4x = -4
divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -4/4
x = -1
so the value of x = -1
As the length of the segment XY is:
Length of segment XY = XM + MY
= 5x+8 + 9x+12
= 14x + 20
substituting x = 1
= 14(-1) + 20
= -14+20
= 6
Therefore,
The length of the segment XY = 6 units
