East to West distance in the map: 36 inches

Use of the scale: 36 in * 500 feet / in =18,000 feet

Conversion to miles: 18,000 feet * 1 mile / 5,280 in = 3.4 miles

Answer: 3.4

ra1l [238]

If 9 of the sparrows is 45% of the birds in the backyard, 9/x = 45/100.

Cross multiply to get 9 * 100 = 45x; simplified is 900 = 45x or 20.

This means that there are 20 birds in the backyard. You can check this by dividing 9/20 which equals 45%

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7.8 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

H (4,3)

G (10, 8)

Process

1.- Use the distance between to points formula to find the distance

        dHG = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}

x1 = 4       y1 = 3

x2 = 10    y2 = 8

2.- Substitution

         dHG = \sqrt{(10 - 4)^{2} + (8 - 3)^{2}}

3.- Simplification

         dHG = \sqrt{6^{2} + 5^{2}}

         dHG = \sqrt{36 + 25}

         dHG = \sqrt{61}

4.- Result

         dHG = 7.8 mi

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Im not too sure given yopur formatting, but I believe you meant this: -((3/8)/(-1/4))

therfore, the answer is: 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You can seperate the two fractions as 3/8 divided by -1/4, which is equal to 3/8 * 4/-1, simply multiply across to get 12/-8, which simplifies to -3/2. Flip the sign to get 3/2
