Answer:

0.7 square miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Square Kilometers and Square Miles are 2-D quantities.

When we normally convert one unit to another (such as km to mi), we have to multiply/divide ONCE. But when we are doing it with square quantities, we have to multiply/divide TWICE.

First, we need the conversion ratio (unit ratio). This is given as:

1 km = 0.6214 miles

Since we want to convert kilometers squared to miles squared, we have to multiply 1.8 (given) by 0.6214 TWICE. This is shown below (note that km^2 is canceled with mi*mi or mi^2):

1.8Km^2*\frac{0.6214Mi}{1Km}*\frac{0.6214Mi}{1Km}\\=1.8*0.6214*0.6214Mi^2\\=0.695Mi^2

So the answer is 0.695 square miles

Rounding to nearest tenth (1 digit after decimal), we get:

0.7 square miles

Write the equation in slope intercept form of the line that passes through the point (1,-3) and a slope of -2
Alborosie

Answer:y=-2x-1


Step-by-step explanation:

(1,-3) and a slope of -2

Use Formula

Y= mx +b to find b. By using the slope and point given .

M is slope

Y is -3

X Is 1



Y=mx+b


-3= -2(1)+b


-3= -2+b


-3+2=b


-1=b


Now create the equation by inputting the slope they gave you which is -2 and answer we solved for b which is -1 .


Y= -2x-1
