Answer: Rounded: 350 miles/inch

Exactly 352 miles per inch.

Step-by-step explanation: Divide the miles by the inches to find miles per inch.

880/2.5 = 352.

It would make sense to round that to say the scale is 350 miles per inch.

One inch represents 350 miles

If 3 quarts of paint are needed for 50 ft of fence, how many quarts are needed for 300 ft of fence?
Zina [86]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would do a proportion

\frac{3}{50}=\frac{x}{300}

Then you would cross multiply, getting 50x=900.

After that, you would do 900/50, which is 18.

What are the coordinates of the point in the directed line segment from (-2,-8) to (5,-1) that partitions the segment into the r
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point X:

  • (x, y) = (-1, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the point.

As the point X is in the directed line segment from (-2,-8) to (5,-1) into the ratio of 1 to 6

i.e.

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)\:=\:\left(-2,-8\right)

\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(5,-1\right)

Rise = y₂ - y₁

       = -1 - (-8)

       = -1 + 8

       = 7

Run = x₂ - x₁

      = 5 - (-2)

      = 5 + 2

      = 7

1 : 6 ratio means the point X lies at

\frac{1}{6+1}=\frac{1}{7}=14\%

Thus,

rise for X =\:7\:\times \:14\%=1

run for X =\:7\:\times \:14\%=1

Thus, coordinates of X will be:

x = -2 + 1 = -1

y = -8 + 1 = -7

Therefore, we conclude that:

The coordinates of the point X:

  • (x, y) = (-1, -7)

Please help! Will mark as brainliest!
Cloud [144]

Answer:

x=10 and y=15

Step-by-step explanation:

1: Plug y into the equation

y=2x-5

5x-4(2x-5)=-10

2: Solve for x

-3x=-30

<em><u>x=10</u></em>

3: Plug x into the other equation

x=10

y=2(10)-5

4: Solve for y

<u><em>y=15</em></u>

<em>Hope this helped! Brainliest would be really appreciated :)</em>
