Answer:

The real distance would be 16

Step-by-step explanation:

If the scale is 1/2, that means each distance on the map is half of what the real distance is. So 8 x 2 =16.

Answer:

80 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1/2 an inch is 5 miles, that would mean one inch is 10 miles.  Now that we know one inch is 10 miles, we can multiply 10 x 8 to get 80.  Therefore, the real distance between the two citied is 80 miles.

Hope it helped and have a great day :)

Vladimir [108]
Given:
bottom of the plank or ground is 9 feet from the wall
length of the plant is 41 ft
height of the wall is unknown.

Let us use the Pythagorean theorem.

a² + b² = c²
a² + (9ft)² = (41ft)²
a² + 81 ft² = 1,681 ft²
a² = 1,681 ft² - 81 ft²
a² = 1,600 ft²
√a² = √1,600 ft²
a = 40 ft

The height of the wall is 40 ft.

Svetllana [295]

Answer: 1. x=2

 2. x=5    

 3.x=-3

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.

Move all terms not containing x    to the right side of the equation.

A pet store sells mice reptiles and birds
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

P(A or B) represents the probability that a customer will buy either a mouse or a reptile at the pet store.  So, there is a 20%, or 1 out 5 chance that a customer will buy either one when they come in to purchase a pet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability represents the fraction of the desired number of outcomes over the total number of outcomes.  In the case of the pet store, their total outcomes can be the purchase of a mouse, reptile or bird.  We don't know how much of each animal they have, however, they tell us that the probability that a customer will buy either a mouse OR a reptile is 0.20.  This means that the probability of buying a mouse and the probability of buying a reptile are added together to equal 0.20 or 20% which is also 1/5.
