The scale on a map is 2cm = 15miles. Dave measures the distance to the next town at 7cm. How many miles away is the next town?

Answers

Answer 1
Try 15 times 7 which is 105 miles.....I believe is the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]52.5\ miles[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale on the map is equal to

[tex]\frac{2}{15}\frac{cm}{miles}[/tex]

so

by proportion

Find how many miles are [tex]7\ cm[/tex] on the map

[tex]\frac{2}{15}\frac{cm}{miles}=\frac{7}{x}\frac{cm}{miles}\\ \\x=15*7/2\\ \\x=52.5\ miles[/tex]

What is Unitary Method?

The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit, followed by the value of the necessary number of units.

For Example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.

12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.

As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.

This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.

Given:

Ryan made 3/4 of a gallon of lemonade.

Each glass holds 1/8 of a gallon of lemonade.

so, the number of glasses of Ryan made

= (3/4)/ (1/8)

= 3/4 x 8

= 3 x 2

= 6

what is this answer because I don't know how to do it

Answers

You are solving for n. First you want to get n by itself on one side of the equal sign. To do this you need to get rid of the -5, so you add it to both sides.

13 + 5 = n - 5 + 5

18 = n

Hope this helps!

So you need to solve for x. To do so you need to isolate the variable first. This is what you do.

13 = x - 5
You add 5 to both sides to get x by itself.
18 = x
So now lets check our work by plugging in the variable! :)
13 = 18 - 5
13 = 13
It is a solution so 18 is your answer.

Rachel types 162 words in 3 minutes Rachel types at a constant rate how many words does Rachel type per minute

Answers

Answer:

54 words  does Rachel type per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity as 1 such as 4 meter per seconds or 5 km per hour

As per the statement:

Rachel types 162 words in 3 minutes Rachel types at a constant rate.

We have to find  how many words does Rachel type per minute.

By definition of unit rate:

[tex]\text{Unit rate per minute} = \frac{162}{3}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\text{Unit rate per minute} =54[/tex] words

Therefore, 54 words  does Rachel type per minute

The number of words typed by Rachael in one minute at a constant rate is 54 words

The parameters given :

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of words typed = 162 words Time taken = 3 minutes

Since, the typing rate is constant ; the typing rate per minute can be calculated thus :

(Number of words typed ÷ number of minutes) (162 / 3) = 54 words per minute.

Therefore, Rachael types at a constant rate of 54 words per minute.

Answer: 6(8+5)

By using a distributive property the expression 48 + 30 will be written as 6(8+5).

What is distributive property?

The distributive property of binary operations in mathematics generalizes the distributive law, which states that in elementary algebra, equality is always true.

Given expression of addition is 48 + 30. The expression by using distributive property will be written as:-

E = 48 + 30

we know that

The hallway is painted using equal amounts of white and black paint

so

To know the amount of white paint------> calculate the area of white paint

[tex]A=5x*6=30x\ ft^{2}[/tex]

To know the amount of black paint------> calculate the area of black paint

[tex]A=(x+1)*4*6=(24+24x)\ ft^{2}[/tex]

equate the areas

Part b) Can this same hallway be painted with the same pattern, but using twice as much black paint as white paint?

we know that

the amount of white paint is [tex]30x\ ft^{2}[/tex]

if the black paint is twice that the white paint

then

An office supply store sells 128 pens in each bag. A business bought 9 bags of pens one month and 7 bags of pens the next month. How many pens total did the business buy?

A. 2,304 pens
B. 2,048 pens
C. 6,712 pens
D. 7,764 pens

Answers

The Business bought a total of 2048 pens.

Easiest way to solve this is to add the amount of bags the business bought.

7 + 9 = 16

After you find to total amount of bags bought you multiply the amount of pens in each bag by the total amount of bags the business bought.

16 * 128 = 2048


Final answer:

The business bought a total of 2,048 pens over two months. In the first month, they purchased 1,152 pens, and in the second month, they purchased 896 pens.

Explanation:

The problem involves simple multiplication and addition operations. First, we need to find out how many pens the business bought in total for each month. In the first month, the business bought 9 bags of pens, and each bag contains 128 pens. So, we multiply 9 (number of bags) by 128 (number of pens per bag) to get 1,152 pens for the first month.

For the second month, the business bought 7 bags of pens. Again, we multiply 7 (number of bags) by 128 (number of pens per bag) to get 896 pens.

Finally, we add together the totals for the two months: 1,152 pens (for the first month) plus 896 pens (for the second month) gives us a total of 2,048 pens bought by the business over the two months. So, the correct answer is B. 2,048 pens.

Find 3 consecutive odd integers such that the sum of 7 times the smallest and twice the largest is -91?

Answers

suppose the smallest odd integer is n, the next one is then n+2, and the third one is n+4
7n+2(n+4)=-91
7n+2n+8=-91
9n=-99
n=-11
so the three odd integers are -11,-9,-7

Answer: -11, -9, -7

the smallest:   2x+1 = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

{z - some integer}

2z+1  - the smallest number

7(2z+1)  - seven times the smallest number

2z+1+2=2z+3  - the middle number

2z+3+2 = 2z+5 - the largest number

2(2z+5) - twice the largest number

7(2z+1) + 2(2z+5)  - the sum of 7 times the smallest and twice the largest

7(2z+1) + 2(2z+5)   = -91

14z + 7 + 4z + 10 = -91

             -17              -17

     18z   = -108

      ÷18        ÷18

       z = -6

2z+1 = 2(-6)+1 = -12 + 1 = -11  

2z+3 = 2(-6)+3 = -12 + 3 = -9

2z+5 = 2(-6)+5 = -12 + 5 = -7

math help Brainliest will be given I solved RS wrong how do I do it I got 112

Answers

R is between S and T, so this implies that R is on line ST and we can say

SR+RT = ST

plug in the given expressions to get

(-2x+24)+(4x+10) = 4x+12

Now solve for x

(-2x+24)+(4x+10) = 4x+12
-2x+24+4x+10 = 4x+12
2x+34 = 4x+12
2x+34-2x = 4x+12-2x
34 = 2x+12
34-12 = 2x+12-12
22 = 2x
2x = 22
2x/2 = 22/2
x = 11

If x = 11, then RS is,
RS = -2*x+24
RS = -2*11+24
RS = -22+24
RS = 2

-------------------------------------
-------------------------------------

Answers:
x = 11 and RS = 2

RS and RT are both segments on the same line. Therefore their equation can be added together and set equal to the equation that is given representing the entire length of segment ST.:


4x+10+ -2x+24=4x+12


Now that you have created one larger equation to solve for x you can now go ahead and combine like terms, (all the x's with the x's and the regular numbers with the regular numbers)


2x+34=4x+12


Now you must move the variables and constants to the opposite sides of the equation. This is called isolating the variable:


2x= 22

Now you can solve for x by dividing by 2 and your answer is x = 11


Now that you have solved for the value of x you can take that value and plug it into the equation that is given for the length of segment RS.


-2X+24 NOW BECOMESSS......

-2(11)+24= -22+24= 2


The length of segment RS is 2

The length of segment RT is 54

The total length of segment ST is 56
