The distance between two cities on a map is 4 1/2 inches. The actual distance between the two cities is 24 miles.
What is the scale used on the map?
If the scale on a different map of the same area is 1/4 inch = 1 mile, how many inches separate the same two cities?

1 inch : 5⅓ miles

6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Map : Actual

4½ : 24

1 : 24/4.5

24 ÷ 9/2 = 24 × 2/9 =

1 inch on map represents an actual distance of 16/3 miles in actual

16/3 = 5⅓ miles

Map : Actual

¼ inch : 1 mile

X inch : 24

¼×24 = 6 inches

   3/16 inches : 1 mile

                  6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

an advantage of the standard deviation is that it increases as the dispersion of the data increases. e. the interquartile range is preferred when the data are not skewed or no have outliers. an advantage of the standard deviation is that it uses all the observations in its computation.

step-by-step explanation:

divide, then simplify your answer.

1. make -15.66 ÷   5.8 a fraction. then divide.

2. simplify.  

3. final answer.
