Answer:

22.5 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale drawing is

1:250,000

That means

1 unit on a map represent 250,000 units in the actual

or

1 cm on a map represent 250,000 cm in the actual

or

1 cm on a map represent 2,500 m in the actual

or

1 cm on a map represent 2,5 km in the actual

therefore

using proportion

Find out how much represent 9 cm apart on the map

\frac{1}{2.5}\ \frac{cm}{km}=\frac{9}{x}\ \frac{cm}{km}\\\\x=9(2.5)\\\\x=22.5\ km

Peter buys tickets for his family to see his favorite movie, Elephant Mistake. He pays $37.50 for 2 adult tickets and 2 student
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

the price of adult ticket and student ticket be $10.50 and $8.25 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the price of adult ticket be x

And, the price of student ticket be y

Now according to the question

2x + 2y = $37.50

x + 3y = $35.25

x = $35.25 - 3y

Put the value of x in the first equation

2($35.25 - 3y) + 2y = $37.50

$70.50 - 6y + 2y = $37.50

-4y = $37.50 - $70.50

-4y = -$33

y = $8.25

Now x = $35.25 - 3($8.25)

= $10.5

Hence, the price of adult ticket and student ticket be $10.50 and $8.25 respectively

. Donny had a 10-foot board. He used the board to make two shelves. One shelf measured 4 feet 7 inches wide and the other shelf
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The length of the missing piece is 2 ft 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the length of the remaining piece of the board given that we have the total length of the board and two other pieces.

Mathematically, the remaining piece length can be calculated by subtracting the lengths of the known pieces

That would be;

10 ft - 4 ft 7 inches - 3 ft 2 inches

In a foot there are 12 inches

Thus

10 ft = 10 * 12 = 120 inches

4 ft 7 inches = 4(12) + 7 = 55 inches

3 ft 2 inches = 3(12) + 2 = 36 + 2 = 38 inches

Thus the length of the remaining piece would now be;

120 -55 -38 = 27 inches

That is same as 24 + 3 inches

24 inches = 2 ft

So 27 inches = 2 ft 3 inches
