Answer:

7 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to set up a ratio, where x is the actual distance in miles between Rose Lake and the hiking trail.

[tex]3.5 : 2 = x : 4[tex]

[tex]2x = 3.5 * 4[tex]

[tex]2x = 14[tex]

[tex]x = 7[tex]

The actual distance between Rose Lake and the hiking trail is 7 miles.

How to solve for a and b
murzikaleks [220]
\bf \begin{cases}
3=a\cdot b^0\\
75=a\cdot b^2
\end{cases}\qquad b^0=1\implies 
\begin{cases}
3=a\cdot 1\implies 3=a\\
----------\\
75=a\cdot b^2\implies 75=3\cdot b^2\\\\
\frac{75}{3}=b^2\implies 25=b^2\\\\
\pm \sqrt{25}=b\implies \pm 5 = b
\end{cases}

recall, anything raised to the 0, zero, power, is 1, with the sole exception of 0
