Answer:

75cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, I can't see a photo, so I'll have to assume that the description provides enough info.

10cm/2km = x/15km,

where x is the distance on the map (in centimeters) of a real-life distance of 15 kilometers.

10cm/2km = x/15km

10/2 = 5/1

This means we have to multiply 5 by 15 to find x.

x = 5 · 15

x = 75

Let's plug the new value back in...

10cm/2km = x/15km

10cm/2km = (75cm)/15km

<em>(Simplify each side to its simplest form)</em>

10cm/2km = 75cm/15km

5/1 = 5/1

It works! So x = 75cm.

Hope this helps! :)

John made a rectangle pen for his dog using 28 feet of fencing. If the width of the pen is 2 feet more than one-half the length,
kati45 [8]
Okay, so you know that the perimeter of the pen is 28 feet. Now we need the separate side lengths.

P = 28 ft.
Length = x
Width = (1/2)x + 2

So now we can plug in the little equations of length and width into a perimeter formula:
 2(x) + 2((1/2)x + 2) = 28
Distribute the 2's and solve as needed.
2x + x + 4 = 28
3x + 4 = 28
3x = 24
x = 8

To find the width, just plug in 8 for x in our little equation:
(1/2)(8) + 2
= 6

So, the length is 8 feet and the width is 6 feet.
