Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

 12 : 20 = 18 : x

⇒ 12/20 = 18/x

⇒ 12x = 18 · 20

⇒ 12x = 360

⇒ x = 360 ÷ 12

⇒ x = 30

What is the slope of the line? NEED ASAP WILL MAKE BRAINLIEST
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we  use the equation

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Since the have the points (2,-4) and (4,0)

m = (0--4)/ (4-2)

   = (0+4)/(4-2)

   = 4/2

   =2

Gulf gully and jump rope road are a pretty far distance.If the scale for the map is 0.5 inches=2.3 miles,what is the actual dist
mezya [45]

Answer:

12 cm = 21.62 miles

6 cm = 11.04 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance, set up a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by using corresponding values. We write a ratio of \frac{map}{real world} and simplify.

We know \frac{map}{real world}=\frac{0.5in}{2.3 miles}. We know the distance on the map is 12 cm and 6 cm whish converts to 4.7 inches and 2.4 inches. We can write \frac{4.7in}{xmiles} and  \frac{2.4in}{xmiles}

We set them equal.

\frac{0.5}{2.3}=\frac{4.7}{x}

and

\frac{0.5}{2.3}=\frac{2.4}{x}

To solve each proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

2.3(4.7)=0.5(x)\\10.81=0.5x\\\frac{10.81}{0.5}=\frac{0.5x}{0.5} \\21.62 miles=x

and

2.3(2.4)=0.5(x)\\5.52=0.5x\\\frac{5.52}{0.5}=\frac{0.5x}{0.5} \\11.04 miles=x
