I like using decimals instead of fractions.
1/8: 0.125
So the scale is:
0.125 in: 1.5 mi
What you do to one side you have to do to the other side. We have the map distance, which is 2.5. Let's see what it was multiplied by to find the map distance of their houses.
2.5÷ 0.125= 20
Let's multiply the other side by 20.
20×1.5
30
So, Juanita and Lindsey live 30 minutes away.

For what value of the variable will<br> b<br> the value of 3−5c be 1 less than the value of 1−c?
Crank

Answer:

c = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets set up an equation.

You can get

3-5c + 1 = 1-c to show that it is one less.

now we can solve it.

So by combining like terms, we get:

4-5c = 1-c

that then becomes:

3-5c = -c

--> 3 = 4c

--> c = 3/4

there are 32 forwards and 80 guards in leos basketball league. eo must include all players on a team and wants each team to have
Marrrta [24]

Close.  The greatest common factor between 32 and 80 is 16 not 8.  

32 (forwards) / 16 (teams) = 2 forwards on each team.

80 (guards) / 16 (teams) = 5 guards on each team.
