Answer:

<em>150 miles</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the scale on the map using the conversion factor

1 inch = 50 miles

We are to find the equivalent miles between the cities in miles if the distace is 3inches

3inches = x

Divide both expressions

1/3 = 50/x

Cross multiply

x = 3 * 50

x = 150

<em>Hence the actual distance between these two cities in miles is 150 miles </em>

How can the Angle-Angle Similarity Postulate be used to prove the two triangles below are similar? Explain your answer using com
zloy xaker [14]

To use the AA postulate directly, you need to show that two corresponding angles are congruent. In order to show that here, you must calculate the value of one of the missing angle measures. Either of the missing angles can be found by invoking the fact that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.

After finding either missing angle, you can show that the measures of two angles in one triangle are identical to the measures of two angles in the other triangle, hence the triangles are similar by the AA postulate.

In triangle PQR, angle P is congruent to angle R and the measure of angle Q is twice the measure of angle R. Find the measure of
castortr0y [4]
∠P=∠R, ∠Q=2∠R
the three angles make a total of 180, so
∠P+∠R+∠Q=180
∠R+∠R+2∠R=180
∠R=45
∠P=45, ∠Q=90

Solve for y.
k0ka [10]

Answer:

y = \frac{2}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply \frac{2}{3} by \frac{3}{3} to get \frac{6}{9}:

\frac{6}{9} + y - \frac{1}{9} = \frac{7}{9}

simplify:

y + \frac{5}{9} = \frac{7}{9}

subract \frac{5}{9} from both sides:

y = \frac{2}{9}

Answer:

It’s the third one

Step-by-step explanation:

-1.1x+6.4>-1.3

-1.1x>-1.3-6.4

-1.1x>-7.7 multiplied by -1 gives 1.1x<7.7

Divided by 1.1 you get x<7
