It would be 2.1 hours or about 2 hours.

It says the train travels about 2118 miles per 8 miles. So, divide 2118 by 8, which gives you 264.75 (when you see the word PER it usually indicates to divide). That gives you part A.

Then, you divide 560, (which is t<span>he distance between Columbus, Ohio, and New York) by 264.75 to see how many hours it took, which gives you 2.1152030217...., which simplifies to 2.1. Which gives you the answer for B.

So,
A is 560 and
B is 2.1 or 2

If you sent up a proportion, 8/144
and simplify it to the unit rate, you get 1/268
and then set up the other fraction x/560.
divide 560 by 268 you get the answer of 2.089... hours

Given coordinates of the triangle:

(3,4)

(4,7)

(8,2).

We are given rule for transformation: (x,y) --> (-x,y).

According to given rule the y coordinates remain same but the coordinates of x's getting multiplied by a negative sign.

Let us write transformed coordinates of the given triangle according to given rule.

(3,4) --> (-3,4)

(4,7) --> (-4,7)
