Y = 0.012x + 57,000

Answer: 800 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the actual distance between City C and City D be represented by x.
The information given in the question can be formed into an equation as:
1.8 feet / 2.88 feet = 500 miles / x
Cross multiply
1.8 × x = 500 × 2.88
1.8x = 1440
x = 1440/1.8
x = 800
Therefore, the actual distance between City C and City D is 800 miles.
He is wrong because 12:55 is one hr and you still need to get to 1:25 but he only got to 1:01 so he did not get the correct answer
