Answer: (3/10) in = (7/8) mi
1 in = (7/8) mi ÷ (3/10)
= 7/8 * (10/3) = 70/24
1 in = (70/24) mi
It means every 1 inch on the map drawing represents (70/24) miles ≈ 2.917 miles in reality.
Hope this helps :)

x= the number of girls competing
x+16=the number of boys competing
The equation to find the number of boys and girls competing would be:
x+(x+16)=1000
First, combine like terms:
2x+16=1000
Subtract 16 from both sides.
2x=984
Divide both sides by 2:
x=492
We know now that the number of girls competing is 492. To find the number of boys competing, you simply have to add 16 to 492.
492+16=508
There are 508 boys competing and 492 girls competing.
I hope this helps :)
F(-3) = 2(-3)^2 - (-3) = 2(9)+3 = 18 + 3 = 21
Answer:
Jason Inherit a land with a 45% chance of having oil.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of the land having oil is = P
(
O)
=
45
/100
The probability of the land having oil is= Q(O
)
=55/100
The machine has an accuracy of 80%. This suggests that 8 out of 10 times the machine will give a wrong reading.
The probability of the correct reading is= P(M)=80/100
The probability of the incorrect reading is=Q(M)=20/100
The case when the machine predicts there is no oil and there is indeed oil can be calculated:Probability=Probability of oil present × probability of the incorrect reading
Probability=P(O) x Q(M)
Probability=45/100 x 20/100
Probability=9/100
The probability of the test predicting no oil in land and the land has oil is 0.09 or 9%
