Alicia drew a map of Texas. In the scale Alicia used for the map, 1/2 inch represents 20 miles. What is the distance between two cities on the map if the actual distance between the two cities is 360 miles?

9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

For the graph, 1/2 inch represents 20 miles.

We need to find the distance between the cities on the map if the actual distance between the two cities is 360 miles.

1/2 inch = 20 miles

1 mile =

For 360 miles, = 0.025 × 360

= 9 inches

Hence, the required answer is 9 inches.

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
