Answer: 2.44 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scale on a map of Virginia shows that 1 inch = 45 miles while the actual distance from Richmond, Va, to Washington, D.C., is 110 miles.

The number of inches that are between the two cities will be represented by x. Therefore,

1/x = 45/110

Cross multiply

45x = 110

x = 110/45

x = 2.44 inches

The Distance between the two cities on the map is 2.44 inches

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{a^{m}}{a^{n}}=a^{m-n}\\\\a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^{m}}\\\\\\\frac{x^{2}y^{-3}}{x^{5}y^{2}}=x^{(2-5)}*y^{(-3-2)}\\\\ = x^{-3}*y^{-5}\\\\=\frac{1}{x^{3}y^{5}}
