Answer:

Actual distance between the two cities given on the map = 78.0 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale used for the actual distance between two cities on a map is,

5 in. = 15 mi.

\frac{5}{15} in. = \frac{15}{15} mi.

1 mi. = \frac{1}{3} in.

1 inch = 3 miles

Therefore, 26 inches on the map = 26 × 3

                                                        = 78 miles

Therefore, actual distance between the two cities given on the map = 78.0 miles

Grace [21]

Answer:

Area of the fabric = 175 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezoid = (b1 + b2)/2 * h

Where,

b1 = 16 inches

b2 = 9 inches

h = 14 inches

Area of a trapezoid = (b1 + b2)/2 * h

= (16 + 9)/2 * 14

= 25/2 * 14

= 12.5 * 14

= 175 square inches

Area of the fabric = 175 square inches

The houck family's train traveled 552 miles in 6 hours. The Roberts family traveled at 744 miles in 8 hours which family is trav
rusak2 [61]

Answer: Both families were travelling at the same speed/rate of 1mile/0.65mins or 1mile/0.01hr.

Step-by-step explanation: Speed of Houck family's train = 552m/6hrs

speed of Robert family's train = 744m/8hrs.

Therefore considering Houck speed,

552miles = 6hours

1mile = (6 x 60)/552

= 360/552

= 0.65minutes. Average speed = 1mile/0.65mins. Or 1mile/0.01hr

For Robert

744miles = 8hours

1mile = ( 8 x 60 )/744

= (480/744)minutes

= 0.645

= 0.65minutes. Average speed = 1mile/0.65mins. Or 1mile/0.01hr

Conclusion: Both families were travelling at the same speed/rate.

To get that minutes in hour, just divide by 60 to get concert to hours.
