We are given the ratio of 1/2 inch: 18 miles
Multiply both sides of the ratio by 2. I'm doing this so that the "1/2" turns into "1"
So we go from this ratio
1/2 inch: 18 miles
to this ratio
1 inch: 36 miles
which means that every inch on paper represents 36 miles in real life
----------------------------------------------------------------
The question is now: if two towns are 2.5 inches apart on paper, then how far are they in real life? (note: 2.5 is the decimal form of 2 and a half)
To find out, multiply both sides by 2.5
1 inch: 36 miles
2.5*(1 inch): 2.5*(36 miles)
2.5 inches: 90 miles
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The two towns are 90 miles apart in real life
It would be -12.75 because it is the opposite of 12.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the painting's width be w inches and length be l inches.
w + 6 = 2l
w = 2l - 6 --(1)
2w + 2l = 84 --(2)
sub (1) into (2):
2(2l - 6) + 2l = 84
2l - 6 + l = 42
3l = 48
l = 16
when l = 16, w = 2(16) - 6 = 26
area of painting = lw = 16 x 26 = 416square inches
Therefore, only statements 1, 3 and 5 are true

Answer: Robert and Chris can skate 10 miles in 45 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by finding the unit rate.
Robert and Chris can skate 
of a mile in 1 minute. Now we can multiply both by 45 to see how far the can go in 45 minutes.
45x1=45
The can skate 10 miles in 45 minutes.
