Slope is already given in the question so we only need to solve for the y-intercept.
Slope intercept form: y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
-3/5 = -0.6
1 = -0.6(1) + b
1 = -0.6 + b
1 + 0.6 = -0.6 + b + 0.6
1.6 = b
Now, write in slope-intercept form.
y = -3/5x - 1.6

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If two values are inversely proportional, their product must be maintained. That way, if one value goes up, the other goes down by the same extent.
Therefore, if 
and 
vary inversely, their product will be the same for all values of 
and 
.
Let 
and 
as given in the problem. Substitute values:
Hence, the maintained product is 
.
Thus, we have the following equation:
Substitute 
to find the value of 
when :
it would equal the same mixed number. 5 2/3
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by drawing a triangle with three points. The first point at Fort Collins (F), the second at Cheyenne (C) and the third at Laramie (L).
The angle at F = 46.5, the angle at L = 43.6. We know the side opposite angle L = 3.2 (side FC), now we must solve for the side opposite angle F (side LC).
We can use the law of sines to solve this where:
sinA/a = sinB/b
sin43.6/ 3.2 = sin46.5/LC
LC = 3.2 (sin46.5/sin43.6)
LC = 3.37 inches
We are told 1 in = 10.6 miles, therefore:
3.37 inches x 10.6 miles/in = 36 miles from Laramie to Cheyenne.
