This is the concept of linear proportionality, we are required to calculate the actual length between two buildings which have a distance of 1.7 cm when drawn to scale of 1 cm: 2.5 km. This can be calculated as follows;
actual distance= (distance on the map)*(scale factor)
actual distance=1.7*2.5=4.25 km
The answer is 4.25 km
Slope is 2/1 , because the formula to find the slope is rise/ run
= 6/3
= 2/1
The answer is that Jade's chickens laid more eggs. Since Jade's farm includes 9 chickens, which each laid 3 eggs, multiply 9 and 3 and you get 27. Edna's farm has chickens which, in total, laid 23 eggs, leading to Jade's chickens with 27 eggs to be more than the eggs laid by Edna's chickens. :)
