Answer:

15 cm on the map is equal to 25 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

On a map, 9 cm represents 15 miles.

The distance between two cities is 15 cm. We need to find the distance in miles.

9 cm = 15 miles

1\ cm=\dfrac{15}{9}\ \miles

So, 15 cm is equal to,

15\ cm=\dfrac{15}{9}\times 15\ miles\\\\=25\ miles

So, 15 cm on the map is equal to 25 miles.

2 as a fraction is 8/4

seeing as how 9/4>8/4

or you could convert 9/4 to a decimal which is 2.25 and 2.25>2

the larger number is 9/4

good luck :)

PLEASE SOLVE!! DUE RIGHT NOW!!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF ANSWERED AND CORRECT!!!!!
Agata [3.3K]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The measure of angle 7 is also 47 degrees. We know this because angle 5 and angle 7 are vertical angles and vertical angles are always equal.

b and c) Since we know that a straight line has an angle of 180 degrees and that the sum of angle 5 and angle 6 will add to this, we can use that to find the value of x like this:

47+2x-5=180\\47-5+2x=180\\42+2x=180\\42-42+2x=180-42\\2x=138\\\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{138}{2} \\x=69

UNO [17]

<em>Complete Question:</em>

<em>You plant an 8-inch spruce tree that grows 4 inches per year and a 14-inch hemlock tree that grows 6 inches per year. </em>

<em>The initial heights are shown. </em>

Write a system of linear equations that represents this situation.

Answer:

s(x) = 8 + 4x

h(x) = 14 + 6x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Spruce Tree (s):

Initial\ Height = 8

Growth = 4 (yearly)

Hemlock Tree (h):

Initial\ Height = 14

Growth = 6 (yearly)

Required

Represent as system of linear equations

Let the number of years be x.

In both cases, the equation can be formed using:

Equation = Initial\ Height + Growth * x

For Spruce Tree (s):

s(x) = 8 + 4 * x

s(x) = 8 + 4x

For Hemlock Tree (h):

h(x) = 14 + 6 * x

h(x) = 14 + 6x

<em>Hence, the equations are </em>s(x) = 8 + 4x<em> and </em>h(x) = 14 + 6x<em></em>
