Width of the actual barrier = 1.2 miles

Width of the barrier in the blueprint = 2 inches

2 inch dimension of blueprint = 1.2 miles of original

So, 1 inch dimension of blueprint = 1.2/2 = 0.6 miles.

Since the length of the barrier in the blueprint = 9 inches,

length of the actual barrier = 9(0.6) = 5.4 miles.

HELP ASAP NOW NOW NOW NOW!!! Suppose three riders rode a total of 182 miles.
Sav [38]

Answer:

14 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming each horse was only ridden once

then a total of 13 horses were ridden for a total of 182 miles

182 miles / 13 horses  = 14  miles  horse

Of course, if each horse was ridden more than once before being replaced the distance between replacements could be reduced.

Note that the fact that there were 3 riders is irrelevant.

Need help with equations with variables on both sides, giving 100 points, tysm if you help :) 6 (2x-4) = 8(x +2) A. 3 B. 10 C. 2
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

B. 10

C. All real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 (2x-4) = 8(x + 2)

Distribute the numbers outside of the factors:

12x - 24 = 8x + 16

Subtract both sides by '8x'

12x - 8x - 24 = 8x - 8x + 16

4x - 24 = 16

Add '24' to both sides:

4x = 40

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 10. Therefore, <u>B. 10</u> is the correct answer.

3(4p - 2) = -6(1 - 2p)

Distribute the numbers similarly to the example before:

12p - 6 = -6 + 12p

Subtract '12p' from both sides:

12p - 12p -6 = -6 + 12p - 12p

0 -6 = -6

Add '6' to both sides:

0 - 6 + 6 = -6 + 6

0 = 0

Therefore, the solution consists of <u>all real numbers.</u>
