Please help!! A scale on a hiking map shows at 3 inches represents 1.25 miles. What number of inches on the map represents 10 actual miles?

24 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion:

3 inches/1.25 miles = x inches/10 miles

Then cross multiply

30=1.25x

Divide 1.25 on both sides

x=24

idk idk idk idk idk

step-by-step explanation:

the polynomial is a perfect square trinomial of the form a^2-2ab+b^2:

option a. true

step-by-step explanation:

9x^2-12x+4

comparing with the form a^2-2ab+b^2

1.) a^2=9x^2

solving for a: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(a^2)=sqrt(9x^2)

a=sqrt(9) sqrt(x^2)

a=3x

2.) b^2=4

solving for b: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(b^2)=sqrt(4)

b=2

to be a perfet square trinomial 2ab must be equal to 12x. let's check:

2ab = 2 (3x) (2)

2ab = 12x

correct
