On a map, the scale is ½ inch to 300 miles. If the trip from Corpus Christi to El Paso is 600 miles, how far apart will those cities appear on the map (in inches)?

Step-by-step explanation:

How many miles from El Paso to Corpus Christi?

The total driving distance from El Paso, TX to Corpus Christi, TX is 699 miles or 1 125 kilometers.

1 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 inch = 0.5 inch

0.5/300 = n/600

0.5 * 600 = n * 300

300 = 300n

1 = n or n = 1

answer: (-8,4) are the coordinates of a

step-by-step explanation:

let the side of square abcd is x .

thus the area of square abcd is .

now, by the diagram area of triangle ead= 1/2 × ea × ad = 1/2 × ea × x

( because ad is the side of square)

and, according to the question,

the areas of square abcd and right ead are equal.

⇒

⇒ea=2x

thus, ea: ab=2: 1

therefore, point a divides line segment eb into the ratio 2: 1.

⇒ by sectional formula coordinates of a are,

=

=

=(-8, 4)

thus the coordinates of a are (-8,4)
