Step-by-step explanation:
Turn the ratio into a fraction
2in /25 mi
You want to have miles so you can flip the fraction and mutiply to cancel out the inches
(25mi / 2in) x 5in = (25 mi x 5in) / 2in
X + 3y = 14
x + 3(3x - 14) = 14
x + 9x - 42 = 14
10x - 42 = 14
<u> + 42 + 42</u>
<u>10x</u> = <u>56</u>
10 10
x = 5.6
5.6 + 3y = 14
<u>- 5.6 - 5.6</u>
<u>3y</u> = <u>8.4</u>
3 3
y = 2.7
(x, y) = (2.7, 5.6)
The answer is -
2x^2 + 2x + 7
