Answer:

4.67 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Shanna is planning a trip from Dallas, Texas, to San Diego, California.

She will travel about = 1,400 miles

The scale of a map is 300 miles = 1 inches

The trip of 1,400 miles = \frac{1,400}{300}

                                     = 4.66666 inches ≈ 4.67 inches

Her trip is 4.67 inches far on the map.

What is the equation for the line? enter your answer in the box
Igoryamba
To get the equation of the line, you need two points that belong to this line.
From the given graph, we can choose any two points: (0,-4) and (-2,0)

The general for of the linear straight line is:
y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

First, we will calculate the slope using the following rule:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
slope (m) = (0--4) / (-2-0) = 4/-2 = -2
The equation of the line now is: y = -2x + c

Then, we will get the value of the c. To do so, we will choose any point and substitute in the equation. I will choose the point (0,-4)
y = -2x + c
-4 = -2(0) + c
c = -4

Based on the above calculations, the equation of the line is:
y = -2x - 4

Find the value of each variable. Write the<br> equation and solve showing ALL the work.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

x = 96°

y = 102°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles on a straight line add up to 180

78 + y = 180

y = 180 - 78

y = 102

Angles in a quadrilateral add up to 360

78 + 90 + x + x = 360

78 + 90 + 2x = 360

168 + 2x = 360

2x = 360 - 168

2x = 192

x = 192/2

x = 96°
