On a scale drawing of a park, the length of a trail is 12 cm from the playground to the pond and 15 cm from the pond to the park

ing lot. If the actual length of the trail from the pond to the parking lot is 60 m, what is the actual length of the trail between the playground and the pond? (Represent/Solve)
a. Define and determine a variable to help solve the problem: (remember look at what the problem is asking)
b. What two things are being compared?
c. Set up a proportion equation using your answer to b (remember “like” units
should be in same place in the proportion)
d. Fill in numbers to your proportion equation using the information from the
problem
e. Use your proportion to solve the problem (remember cross product strategy)

Answer:

The answer is 48 m

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation,

15 cm = 60 m  

which means 1 cm = 60/15 m = 4m

therefore,

length of the trail between the playground and the pond in scale drawing= 12 cm

since, 1 cm= 4 m

therefore, 12 cm = 12*4 m = 48 m

the actual length of the trail b/w playground and pond = 48m

Estefani‘s house is at point E (3,-2) and Jasmin’s house is at point J (-5,3). Jasmin’s house is the Mid-point of Estefani’s hou
iren [92.7K]

The formula for midpoint is

(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})

Look at the image below to see the line segment of Estefani's (A), Jasmin's (M), and Preston's (B) houses. Keep in mind that the segment shown below is not accurate in regards to how the line segment formed by Estefani's, Jasmin's, and Preston's houses. It is simply there so you can picture the segment better.

In this case:

x_{1} =3\\x_{2} =unknown\\y_{1} =-2\\y_{2} =unknown

^^^Plug in these number into the formula given above...

(\frac{3+x}{2}, \frac{-2 + y}{2})

To find what x is (a coordinate of Preston's house) you must take the x-value part of the midpoint equation (\frac{3+x}{2}) and set it equal to the x-value of the midpoint (-5). Then you must solve for x:

\frac{3+x}{2} = -5

3 + x = -5 * 2

3 + x = -10

x = -10 - 3

x = -13

To find what y is (a coordinate of Preston's house) you must take the  y-value part of the midpoint equation(\frac{-2 + y}{2}) and set it equal to the y-value of the midpoint (3). Then you must solve for y:

\frac{-2 + y}{2} = 3

-2 + y = 3 * 2

-2 + y = 6

y = 6 + 2

y = 8

The coordinate of Preston's house is:

(-13, 8)

Hope this helped!

2     1

  +

3     2

you have to make them have the same denominators(the number on the bottom of a fraction)

2/3--> 4/6

1/2---> 3/6

4/6+3/6=7/6 or 1 and 1/6
