Rate for Sally is 1 room per 8hrs
rate for Steve is 1 room per 7hrs

combined rate:
1/8 + 1/7 = 1/T
7/56 + 8/56 = 1/T
15/56 = 1/T
56/15 = T
3 11/15 = 3 hrs 44 min

The scale of a map is 1 inch: 250 miles. City A is 378 miles from City B. To the nearest tenth, how far is its distance on the m
juin [17]
This is a proportion question. We can express this as an equation where the answer is x:

\frac{1}{250} = \frac{x}{378}

From there, you can just cross-multiply and divide to get:

\frac{1 * 378}{250}

A tenth of 250 is 25, so this is roughly \frac{375}{250} or \frac{17}{10}, so it'll be approximately 1.7 inches on the map.

Answer:

Slope is 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The two points are (3,3) and (-2,-1)

The slope formula is Y2-y1 / x2-x1

So substituting in

-1-3/ -2 -3

-4/-5 = 4/5

You can check it by "walking" up 5 and over to the right 4 on the graph and see that it works.
