Complete Question

On a map, 90 miles is represented by 3 inches. A measure of 1/2 inch on the map would represent miles.

Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question,

3 inches = 90 miles

1/2 inch = x miles

Cross Multiply

3 inches × x miles = 90 miles × 1/2 inch

x miles = 90 miles × 1/2 inch/3 inches

x miles = 15 miles

Therefore, a measure of 1/2 inch on the map would represent 15 miles

-----------------------------\\\\
x^2+y^2=49\iff (x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=7^2\quad 
\begin{cases}
h=0\\
k=0
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
(x-\underline{(-3)})^2+(y-\underline{(+4)})^2=7^2\quad 
\begin{cases}
h=-3\\
k=4

\\\\\\
\boxed{(x+3)^2+(y-4)^2=49}$

Mike has 21 pounds of tomatoes and 9 pounds of mixed peppers from his garden that he will use to make sals.

Grace [21]

The number of batches of salsa that can be made = x = 6 batches

The number of bat tomato sauce that can be made = y = 3 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the system of equations:

$x+5y=21\\x+y=9$

where variable x represents the number of batches of salsa that can be made and y represents the number of bat tomato sauce that can be made.

We need to solve the systems to find the values of x and y.

Let:

$x+5y=21\,\,\,eq(1)\\x+y=9\,\,\,eq(2)$

Subtract both equations:

$x+5y=21\\x+y=9\\-\,\,\,-\,\,\,\,\,\,-\\------\\4y=12\\y=\frac{12}{4}\\y=3$

So, value of y=3

Putting value of y in eq(2) and finding value of x:

$x+y=9\\x+3=9\\x=9-3\\x=6$

So, value of x=6

The number of batches of salsa that can be made = x = 6 batches

The number of bat tomato sauce that can be made = y = 3 batches
