Answer:

150 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/2 of an inch is 20 miles, we can assume that 1/4 of an inch is 10 miles, since half of 1/2 is 1/4 and 1/2 of 20 is 10.

Equipped with this information, we can divide 3 by 1/2 or multiply 3 by the reciprical, 2/1 to get how much we should multiply 20 by.

3*2=6

20*6=120

Then we can multiply 10 by 3 and add that on our answer, since there are still 3/4s left and 1/4=10 miles.

10*3=30

120+30=150

The actual distance is 150 miles.

Hope this helps!

Determine the intercepts of the line.<br> y-6= 4( + 5)<br> y-intercept:<br> z-intercept
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

  1. (0, 26)
  2. (-6.5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn the equation into slope-intercept form [ y = mx + b ].

y - 6 = 4(x + 5)

y - 6 = 4x + 20

y = 4x + 26

We know that b = y-intercept for the y-intercept is 26.

Substitute 0 for y to find the x intercept.

0 = 4x + 26

-26 = 4x

-6.5 = x

Best of Luck!
