Answer:

30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 = 2

3  3/4 = x

15/4 = x

So, Cross multiply

=> 1/4 * x = 15/4 * 2

=> 1/4x = 15/4 * 4/2

=> 1/4x = 60/8

=> 1/4x = 7.5

=> 1/4x * 4 = 7.5 * 4

=> x = 30

So, 15/4 inches on the map equals 30 miles.

An equation that is satisfied for every value of the variable for which both sides are defined
mote1985 [20]
<span>An equation that is satisfied for every value of the variable for which both sides are defined is called an identity.

For example:
Given the equation
3x + 4 = x + 2(x + 2)

Notice that for any value of x you use, the equation is true.

Thus, this type of equation is called an identity.

Pick the correct answer <br> Please help thanks :)

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First create the equation that has slope of -1 in the form of y=mx+b. Because the slope is -1, m=-1, so the equation is y=-x+b. Now we see that we are given the point (-3, 8) as an intersection point. Substitute x and y for -3 and 8 in our equation. With this information, our equation becomes 8=3+b. Solving, b=5. Our equation is now y=-x+5.

Simplifying all of the answer choices, we have

A. y=-x-5

B. y=-x+5

C. y=-x-5

D. and E. as what they already show

The only answer that matches is B.
