Hey there!
Since 2 goes into 8, you would simplify. You would get 1 inch and 4 miles. Next, set up a ratio. The ratio is 1 inch: 4 miles. So for every inch on the map, there is 4 miles.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
A line that passes through (3, -8) and (7,-2).
Denote equation of that line: y = ax + b
=> Slope a can be directly determined by:
a = (7 - 3)/(-2 - -8) = 4/6 = 2/3
=> y = (2/3)x + b
This line passes (3, -8), then: -8 = (2/3)*3 + b => -8 = 2 + b => b = -10
=> y =(2/3)x - 10
There are other ways to find equation of line.
Hope this helps!
