Answer:

C. 1 inch = 23 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the scale, add the scale distances shown first.

2.25 + 1.75 = 4 inches on the map

Now, divide the actual mileage (92 miles) by how long it was on the map.

92 / 4

92 = 80 + 12

92/4 = (80/4) + (12/4)

92/4 = 20 + 3

92/4 = 23 miles

That means 1 inch on this map is actually 23 miles. So the scale of the map is 1 inch = 23 miles, which is C.

X-3/2=x+8/6 solve the proportion

Aneli [31]

Answer:

x = 17/2

Step-by-step explanation:

x-3 x+8

------ = ------------

2 6

Using cross products

(x-3) *6 = 2 (x+8)

Distribute

6x - 18 = 2x+16

Subtract 2x from each side

6x-2x-18 = 2x-2x+16

4x-18 = 16

Add 18 to each side

4x-18+18 = 16+18

4x = 34

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = 34/4

x = 17/2

Y=-6x + 5<br> x - y = 5

rodikova [14]

Answer:

y = $\frac{-25}{7}$ or -3.571

x = $\frac{10}{7}$ or 1.429

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 5

x = 5 + y

Solve for y:

y = -6x + 5

y = -6(5 + y) + 5 Substitute x with 5 + y

y = -6(5) - 6y + 5

y = -30 - 6y + 5

y + 6y = -30 + 5

7y = -25

y = $\frac{-25}{7}$ or -3.571

Solve for x:

x = 5 + y

x = 5 + -25/7

x = $\frac{10}{7}$ or 1.429

Two trucks started toward each other at the same time from towns 500 km apart. One truck traveled at a rate of 65 km per hour wh

morpeh [17]

They would meet after 4 hours, as 65 x 4 = 260. And 60 x 4 = 240. If you add these, they become a value of 500. This also answers the 2nd question ; 65x + 60x = 500.
