on a map with a scale 1:100,000 the distance between two cities is 12cm. what would be the distance between these two cities on
klio [65]

Part 1)

we have

the scale is 1:100,000

the distance on a map is 12\ cm

we know that

The scale is equal to the distance on a map divided by the real distance

Let

x------> distance on a map

y-------> real distance

S-------> scale

S=\frac{x}{y}

In this part we have

S=\frac{1}{100,000}

x=12\ cm  

Find the value of y

y=\frac{x}{S}

Substitute the values

y=\frac{12}{(1/100,000)}

y=1,200,000\ cm

Convert to kilometers

y=12\ Km

Part 2)

In this part we have

S=\frac{1}{300,000}

y=12\ km  

Find the value of x

x=S*y

Substitute the values

x=(1/300,000)*12

x=0.00004 Km

Convert to centimeters

x=4\ cm

therefore

the answer is

The distance is 4\ cm

Question 45 A length of pipe that weighs 45 pounds is cut into two pieces. One of the pieces is 3 feet long and weighs 18 pounds
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: 4.5 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Weight of original pipe =45 pounds

Weight of first piece = 18 pounds

Then, Weight of  other piece = 45- 18 =  27 pounds

Length of first piece = 3 feet

Let x be the length of other piece.

As length is directly proportional to weight.

Then, \dfrac{x}{27}=\dfrac{3}{18}

\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{x}{27}=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{1}{6}\times27 =4.5

Hence, the he length of the other piece = 4.5 pounds.

What additional information would prove that LMNP is a rectangle? The length of LM is and the length of MN is . The slope of LP
kumpel [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is diagonals are equal and bisect each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposites sides equal in length and all interior angles equal to 90°. Opposite sides are parallel and adjacent sides are perpendicular. Diagonals in a rectangle are equal in length and they bisect each other. If we want to draw a circumcircle, then the point of intersection of these diagonals give the circumcenter.
