Find the scale for how many miles per inch are on the map:

270 miles / 4.5 inches = 60 miles per inch.

On the map every 1 inch equals 60 miles.

12 inches x 60 miles per inch = 720 miles total.

City B and City C are 720 miles apart

mylen [45]
Since a total of 55 people rated it good/very good, we know that 1/3 of the viewers are 55 people. So we can set the equation: 1/3x=55

Now, just multiply both sides by 3 (or divide by 1/3, same thing) and get your answer!

siniylev [52]
This question is a little tricky.  Carla had a bill of $15, which we will add to the cost of Rob's lunch.  They left a 20% tip on the TOTAL cost of both their lunches, which should equal $6.  20% is equivalent to 0.2.  So, the equation is 6=0.2(x+15).  In other words, 20% of the sum of Carla and Rob's lunches is 6 dollars.

Answer: 6=0.2(x+15)
