For this problem you have a function, in the form of equation, that relates the actual distance and the distance of the points in the map.

The function is, y = 8x where x is distance i n cm, in the map, and y is actual distance in Km

Then, given that you know the actual distance is y = 64 km, you can solve for x:

y = 8x => x = y/8 = 64/8 = 8

Answer: distance in the map is 8 cm

A concert cleanup crew has 6 workers and one cleanup kit.

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

At every 6 crew workers number of clean up kits required = 1

Therefore, for 1 crew worker number of kits required = $\frac{1}{6}$

And number of kits required for w workers = $\frac{w}{6}$ = w ÷ 6

If w = 54

Number of kits required = $\frac{54}{6}=9$

If w = 60

Number of kits required = $\frac{60}{6}=10$

If w = 66

Number of kits required = $\frac{66}{6}=11$

Therefore, table given in Option (D) is the correct table.

c = √(a²+b²)

c = √(5²+12²)

c = √(25+144)

c = √169

c = 13 units

Anne's potato salad recipe requires one pound of potatoes for every four people served. How many pounds of potatoes will Anne ne

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

3.5 pounds for 14 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 pound = 4 people

Required

Determine the pounds for 14 people

Represent this with x; so, we have:

$1\ pound = 4\ people$

$x = 14\ people$

Cross Multiply

$x * 4 = 1 * 14$

$4x = 14$

Solve for x

$x = 14/4$

$x = 3.5$

<em>Hence, 3.5 pounds for 14 people</em>
