To answer the problem above, use the concept of ratio and proportion. The ratio between 1 cm to 21 km should be the same as the ratio of 3.1 cm to the actual distance. Let x be the unknown actual distance and mathematically express the situation,
 
                                         (1 cm/ 21 km) = (3.1 cm / x km)

This equation gives a value for x which is 65.1 km. Therefore, the answer is letter C.

The points (-1,r) and (11, -1) lie on a line with slope -3/4<br> Find the missing coordinate r.
choli [55]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (-3/4)x + c

Sub (11,-1) into the equtaion

-1 = (-3/4)(11) + c

c = 29/4

y = (-3/4)x + 29/4

when x = -1,

y = (-3/4)(-1) + 29/4

y = 8

r = 8

The first inverse operation you would use to solve the equation 2+5x= -8 for x is subtraction. true or false?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

It would be True

Step-by-step explanation:

2+5x = -8

SUBTACT 2 on both sides and it would look like this:

5x = -8 - (2)

5X= -10

then DIVIDE 5 both side to get "X" ALONE,

x= -10/5

then divide -10 with 5

equal to:

x = -2
