Answer:
Proportion states that the two ratios or fractions are equal
Given the statement:
The scale on map is 2 cm =25 miles.
Dave measured the distance to the next town at 5 cm.
We have to find the what miles away is the next town.
Let x be the distance in miles away is the next town.
By definition of proportion:
By cross multiply we get;
Simplify:
Divide both sides by 2 we get;
x = 6.25 miles
Therefore, 6.25 miles away is the next town.
Blake used 1.234 liters of paint for his art project.
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
the farther you go up in the negatives is least amount
so like -1 is greater than -20
Volume of the bottom rectangle:
12 x 4.5 x 5.5 = 297 cubic cm
Volume of triangle:
1/2 x 12 x 5 = 30 x 4.5 = 135 cubic cm
Total volume = 297 + 135 = 432 cubic cm
Gradient=rise/run=y2-y1/x2-x1
= 7-3(4)/-4--4(0)
As you can't divide by zero the line's equation is x=-4 so it doesn't have a gradient as such. However, a parallel line would be the y-axis
