A student wants to know the approximate distance between London and Beijing. Using a string, she finds that the distance on a globe between London and Beijing is about 36 centimeters and between London and New York is about 22 centimeters. The actual distance between London and New York is about 5000 kilometers. If she lets d represent the approximate distance in kilometers between London and Beijing, what is d rounded to the nearest whole number?

8182 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

A correct proportion to use is 22 over 5,000 = 36 over d

Cross multiply to get 22d = 5,000 x 36. Then, solve d. d = 8181.81so the approximate distance rounded to the nearest whole number from London to Beijing is 8182 kilometers.

Hope This Is Right

8182

Step-by-step explanation: a good proportion to use is 22 over 5000= 36 over the mystery number.( in this case, we will use D). then we cross multiply 22xd=5000x36. then we solve for D which is about 8181.81. therefore the rounded answer is 8182.

10.416 meters per second

step-by-step explanation:

distance=1 00 meters

time= 9.6 seconds in decimal form or 9 3/5 as a mixed number

average speed= 100/9.6

=10.416 meters per second or 10 52/125 as a mixed number.
