The <u>correct scale</u> is 1 in = 4 mi.
<u>Explanation</u>:
The scale tells us what a given measurement on the map equals in real-life distance.
The measurement on the map that we have is 2 inches, and it equals 8 miles:
2 in = 8 mi
This can also be written as 2/8. This fraction can be simplified, since both 2 and 8 are divisible by 2; it will simplify to 1/4. This is the same as
1 in = 4 mi.
45 pages total
3 on last page
45-3=42
there are 42 on the rest of the pages
on each page, there are 2 more pages in album than then stamps on pages
amount of stamps on pages with equal number of stamps is
A=numberofpgest times number of stamps on pages
number of pages=p
number of stamps per papge=s
a=ps
2 more pages than stamps on pages
p=2+s
total number of stamps per page is s=(45-3)/(p-1)
(what I did is I first got rid of number of stamps on last page, then got rid of the last page)
P=2+s
s=(45-3)/(2+s-1)
s=42/(s+1)
times s+1 both sides
s^2+s=42
minus 42
s^2+s-42=0
factor
(s-6)(s+7)=0
set equal to zero
s-6=0
s=6
s+7=0
s=-7, false, no negative stamps
6 stamps per page
sub
p=2+s
p=2+6
p=8
8 pages
check
last page is 3 so 8-1=7 page left
7*6=42
3+42=45
correct
there are
8 pages in the album
6 stamps per page
Answer:
1058.4 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the surface areas of the rectangular prism and the triangular prisms separately.
Triangular: S = (1/2)lP+B, where l is slant height, P perimeter, and B base area.
14(4)= 56 perimeter of base
13 slant height
B = 14x14 = 196
put together:
S = (1/2)(13 x 56) + 196
S = 560 in^2
Now the rectangular prism
S = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l is length, h height, w width. (delete the first 2lw since they share one side/they're combined shapes.
S = 2(14x8.9) + 2(14x8.9)
S = 498.4 in^2
Add them together: 498.4 + 560 = 1058.4 in^2
84 is 60% of 140!
To get this answer, you have to do 84 x 100 and you get 8400: Then you divide 8400 by 60 and get 140.
