Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

12 cm = 21.62 miles

6 cm = 11.04 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance, set up a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by using corresponding values. We write a ratio of $\frac{map}{real world}$ and simplify.

We know $\frac{map}{real world}=\frac{0.5in}{2.3 miles}$ . We know the distance on the map is 12 cm and 6 cm whish converts to 4.7 inches and 2.4 inches. We can write $\frac{4.7in}{xmiles}$ and $\frac{2.4in}{xmiles}$

We set them equal.

$\frac{0.5}{2.3}=\frac{4.7}{x}$

and

$\frac{0.5}{2.3}=\frac{2.4}{x}$

To solve each proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

$2.3(4.7)=0.5(x)\\10.81=0.5x\\\frac{10.81}{0.5}=\frac{0.5x}{0.5} \\21.62 miles=x$

and

$2.3(2.4)=0.5(x)\\5.52=0.5x\\\frac{5.52}{0.5}=\frac{0.5x}{0.5} \\11.04 miles=x$

The measure of angle ABD is (0.15x+65) and the measure of angle CBD is(0.1x+28) . Find the value of x.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

x = 348

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of angle ABD is (0.15x+65) and the measure of angle CBD is(0.1x+28) . Find the value of x.

0.15x + 65 + 0.1x + 28 = 180

0.25x + 93 = 180

0.25x = 180 - 93

0.25x = 87

x = 87/0.25

x = 348
