Choose the correct answer. a city map has the scale 1 inch = 500 feet. if a map of the city limits is 36 inches (east to west) by 24 inches (north to south), how many miles long (5,280 feet = 1 mile) is a straight east - west road in this scale? miles

3.4 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given map of a city limits. We are asked to find length of the actual straight east-west road in miles.

On the map 1 inch equals 500 feet.

The East-west road is 36 inches on scale. So actual length of road would be:

Now, we will convert the actual road length into miles by dividing 18,000 feet by 5,280 feet as 1 mile equals 5,280 feet.

Therefore, the actual road length of straight east-west road is 3.4 miles.

no not all of them.

step-by-step explanation:

some of them have a square base.

-8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16

we move all terms to the left:

-8/2y-8-(5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16)=0

we can not solve this equation
