Help me with some math questions.. TOTALLY important grade 9 math questions?

1. A map is drawn using a scale of 4 cm to represent 5 km


a) find the representative fraction


b) A road has a length of 9.4 cm on the map, find its actual distance in km


c) A lake has an area of 64 km*2 find its area represented on the map





2. a cylindrical container of radius 8 cm contains water to a height of 5 cm. Th water in this cylinder is then poured into another cylinder of radius 5 cm. what is the height of the water in the second cylinder?





3. the length and breadth of a rectangle are (2x+1)cm and (x-1)cm respectively. If the area of the rectangle is 90cm*2, form an equation in x and hence calculate the value of x.





just the answers will do,thanks so much you'll really help this is totally important

"Just the answers will do"???????????????





Please do your own homework. If you don't know how to do it- asking for help with that would be more appropriate.
Reply:1.a.the representative fraction is :


1:1.25(i.e.,1cm=5/4km)


b.1 cm on the map is 1.25km


therefore, 9.4cm on the map is


9.4*1.25=11.75km


c.64km^2=%26gt;a square of sides 8 km each


8 km in the map will be


0.8*8=6.4 cm.


therefore a square with sides 6.4 cm is to be drawn


2. the volume in the first cylinder is equal to the volume in the


second cylinder.


pi*8*8*5=pi*5*5*h


320=25h


h=12.8cm


3.(2x+1)(x-1)=90


2x^2-x-91=0


x=7,(-26/4)
Reply:1 a) 4cm/5km=4cm/500000cm=1/125000 it is unitless


b) 9.4x125000cm or 9.4x1.25km=11.75km


c) 64=8x8/1.25x1.25=7.04cm*2


2.V1=pie X r*2 X h =3.14x64x5=1004.8cum


hence 1004.8=pie X r'*2 Xh


1004.8=3.14x25xh


h=1004.8/3.14x25


=100480/7850


=12.8cm


3. A= (2x+1)(x-1)=90


=2x*2-x-91=0


x=7
