A map of a highway has a scale of 2 inches = 39 miles. The length of the highway on the map is 6 inches. There are 11 rest stops equally spaced on the highway, including one at each end. You are making a new map with a scale of 1 inch = 30 miles. How far apart are the rest stops on the new map? The rest stops on the new map are inch(es) apart.​

13664

step-by-step explanation:

=cross multiply

=100 x = 13664

alright so i think for this one it would to draw it out. this may be hard for me to try and draw, but i will do my best on here:

        r

  /       |     \

notice how it forms 2 triangles inside one bigger triangle.

so if we know the angle spr is the same as psr that is saying the measure of angle p is the same as angle s. this means the big triangle psr is either isosceles or equilateral. in both cases, the triangle is perfectly symmetrical when split down the middle, which is in this case rq. because we know it is perfectly symmetrical on both sides, we know that the two triangles inside the bigger one are equal.

first 15 divide by 2 = 7.5

100 divided by 7.5 is 13.

15 / 2 = 7.5

100 / 7.5 = 13.
