Hey there,
Speed = Distance / Time
= 120 / 3
= 40 miles / hour

Hope this helps :))

Answer:

1857 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the scale on a map is 1 cm:30 mi. The distance on the map between San Francisco, CA, and Chicago, IL, is 61.9 cm. We are asked to find the actual distance between San Francisco and Chicago.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

$\frac{\text{Actual distance}}{\text{Map distance}}=\frac{30\text{ miles}}{1\text{ cm}}$

Upon substituting map distance between San Francisco and Chicago, we will get:

$\frac{\text{Actual distance}}{61.9\text{ cm}}=\frac{30\text{ miles}}{1\text{ cm}}$

$\frac{\text{Actual distance}}{61.9\text{ cm}}\cdot 61.9\text{ cm}=\frac{30\text{ miles}}{1\text{ cm}}\cdot 61.9\text{ cm}$

$\text{Actual distance}=30\text{ miles}\cdot 61.9$

$\text{Actual distance}=1857\text{ miles}$

Therefore, the actual distance between San Francisco and Chicago is 1857 miles.

No correlation
A scatterplot is used to represent a correlation between two variables. There are two types of correlations: positive and negative. Variables that are positively correlated move in the same direction, while variables that are negatively correlated move in opposite directions.
