Answer: 9 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Distance between city A and city B is 540 miles

Scale on the map is 1 inch: 60 miles i.e. 1 inch on the map is equivalent to 60 miles in the real situation

suppose the distance between city A and B on the map is x

\therefore \dfrac{1}{60}=\dfrac{x}{540}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{540}{60}=9\ in.

Therefore, the distance between city A and B is 9 in.

The low temperature in degrees Fahrenheit for 5 days was – 5, – 7, – 2, 2, and – 3. What was the average low temperature for tho
sammy [17]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average of different numbers, first you add them all up. So -5+-7+-2+2+-3+=-15. Then, you divide the sum of all the numbers by the amount of numbers there were. So in this case, there were 5 numbers so we would divide the sum of all of them by 5. So now we do -15/5=-3.

Another example of finding the average of numbers is 15+4+10+9+3+1. So first we add them up and we get 42, then again, we divide by the amount of numbers there are. So we do 40/6 and we get 7, so the average is 7.

I hope this helped.
