Jy is hiking glacier national park he now has hiked a total of 17 km and is 2 km short of being 1/2 of the way done with his hike .write a equation to determine the total length in kilometers(h) of jy's hike find the total length of jy's hikea two part question(ps am i the only one who hate word problems

Jy has hiked 17km

He is 2km short of being half of the way done with hicking

Let the total distance he hiked be xkm

Then 1/2x = 17 + 2km

1/2x = 19km

x = 19 × 2 = 38km

The total distance he covered was 38km.

a 4/6 = 9/12   not proportional

step-by-step explanation:

to find which are not proportional, we can use cross products

if it is true, they are proportional.   if it is not true, they are not proportional.

a 4/6 = 9/12

4* 12 = 6*9

48 = 54

not this is not proportional  

b 2/3 = 12/18  

2* 18 = 3 * 12

36 = 36

this is proportional

c 5/4 = 10/8  

5*8 = 4*10

40 = 40

this is proportional

d 7/5 = 35/25

7*25 = 5 * 35

175 = 175

is proportional
