Using proportions, it is found that the two cities are 27.5 miles apart.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

From the given scale, we have that <u>each inch of distance represents 10 miles</u>. Hence the distance in miles for a distance of 2 and 3/4 miles = 2.75 miles is given by:

D = 10 x 2.75 = 27.5 miles.

Hence, the two cities are 27.5 miles apart.

Find the value of x.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

$2\sqrt{77}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem. $a^{2} +b^{2}=c^{2}$

a and b are the two side lengths

c is the hypotenuse (value across from the right angle)

Plug in the values that you are given.

$a^{2} +4^{2} =18^{2}$

Solve for x

$x^{2} =18^{2} -4^{2}$

$x^{2} =308$

x= $\sqrt{308}$

$x=2\sqrt{77}$

Enter an inequality that represents the graph in the box.

ANTONII [103]

The inequality that represents the graph in the box is

$y>-3x+6$

Given :

The graph of the linear inequality

Lets pick two points from the graph to frame the linear equation

Slope intercept form of the equation is

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y intercept is (0,6) from the graph

so b=6

Now we find out slope m using formula

Pick two points (0,6) and (2,0)

$slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\m=\frac{0-6}{2-0} =-3$

m=-3

So the equation is $y=-3x+6$

Now we check the inequality sign by testing any point on shaded area

lets pick (4,0)

lets plug in 4 for x and 0 for y

$y=-3x+6\\0=-3(4)+6\\\\0=-6\\0>-6$

The inequality for the given graph is

$y>-3x+6$

we cannot use >= sign because we have dotted lines
