Answer:

15.751ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a conversion of units problem, so first you have 4.8 km and you need to convert it to feet.

First you take the quantity you need to convert:

4.8km

Then you put a factor, in the denominator you put the conversion factor with the same units that the number that you want to convert, that is:

4.8km*\frac{}{1.609km}

Then in the numerator you put the second unit that you have, in this case, the problem gives you that 1 mile = 1.609km, so:

4.8km*\frac{1mile}{1.609km}

Then, as the problem says that convert the 4.8km to feet, you put the next factor in the same way:

4.8km*\frac{1mile}{1.609km}*\frac{5280feet}{1mile}

Finally, you multiply the initial quantity and the numerators and divide by the denominators, and you have:

4.8km*\frac{1mile}{1.609km}*\frac{5280feet}{1mile}=\frac{25344}{1.609}ft

\frac{25344}{1.609}=15.751ft

In 19951995​, there were 41 comma 43141,431 shopping centers in a certain country. in 20052005​, there were 48 comma 72948,729.
Natali5045456 [20]
The first thing you should do for this case is to use the following table to perform the equation of a line:
 y x
 41,431 1995
 48,729 2005
 We have then that the line that best fits this data is
 y = 729.8x - 1E + 06
 Then, to know in what year the number of shopping centers reaches 80,000 we must replace this number in the equation of the line and clear x:
 80000 = 729.8x - 1E + 06
 Clearing x
 x = (80000 + 1E + 06) / (729.8) = 1479.857495
 nearest whole number
 1480
 This means that after 1480 years, 80000 shopping centers are reached.
 Equivalently, this amount is reached in the year:
 1480 + 1995 = 3475
 In the year 3475
 answer
 (a) y = 729.8x - 1E + 06
 (b) In the year 3475

The solution of a system of equations is the place where they cross; the point where both equations are true. find the place on your graph where your two lines intersect.

you should find (2, 3) as the intersection point. this is the solution for the system.
