To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. We know that 1 yard is 36 inches, therefore, 50 yards expressed in inches is:

(50)(36)=1800in

2. If he is 50 yards from school and the map shows that the school is 34 inches from his current location, when it shows 3 inches the real distance is:

\frac{(1800in)(3in)}{34in}=158.82in

3. If you can to express it in yards:

\frac{158.82}{36} =4.41 yd

Therefore, the answer is: 158.82 inches or 4.41 yards.

Actual distance of the Harper from the school = 50 yards.

According to map the distance from the school = 34 inch.

We could say 34 inches represents 50 yards.

So, 1 inches could be represented by 50/34 = 25/17 yards.

In order to find the actual length of 3 inches in yards, we need to multiply 1 inches value of yards by 3.

Therefore, 3 inches = 3* 25/17 = 75/17 = 4 7/17 yeards in decimals 4.412 yards approximately.

Therefore,  Harper from home is  4 7/17 yeards or 4.412 yards approximately if the map shows the distance as 3 inches.

The universal set is the set of rational numbers. S is the set of integers. Which represents Sc?The universal set is the set of
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The set of numbers of the form \frac{p}{q} , q≠0 and q≠ 1 or -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

U = the universal set = the set of all rational numbers

S = set of all integers.

It is required to find S^{c}.

Now, S^{c} is the complement of the set S.

i.e. S^{c} = U - S = set if rational numbers - set of integers

i.e. S^{c} = the set of rationals which are not integers i.e. the set of points of the form \frac{p}{q} , q≠0 and q≠ 1 or -1.

The weight of Jacob’s backpack is made up of the weight of the contents of the backpack as well as the weight of the backpack it
Dafna11 [192]
If the backpack (b) contains only textbooks (t) and notebooks (n), the total weight of the backpack is:

b+t+n

but notebooks are 4 pounds, so actually:

b+t+4

also, the backpack weights 2 pounds, so the total weight is:

2+t+4 =t+6
 now, "Seventy percent of <span> the total weight is textbooks. ", this means that


t=70%(t+6) - this equation can be used to determine the weight of the textbooks!
