Answer is 3x
Reduce the index of the radical and exponent with 2
Yes because it goes up and back down
Let's test each alternative :
2 x - 9 y = 38 ( 7,5 ) :
( 2 * 7 ) - ( 9 * 5 ) = 38
14 - 45 = 38
-31 ≠ 38 ( wrong )
( 4 , - 1 ) :
( 2 * 4 ) - ( 9 * ( - 1 ) = 38
8 + 9 = 38
17 ≠ 38 ( wrong )
( 3 , - 3 ) :
2 * ( 3 ) - ( 9 * ( - 3 ) = 38
6 + 27 = 38
33 ≠ 38 ( wrong )
( 1 , - 4 ) :
2* ( 1 ) - 9 * ( - 4 ) = 38
2 + 36 = 38
38 = 38 ( Correct alternative )
( 1 , - 4 ) is correct alternative
The final marker would be 105 miles from the first marker. Hope this helped. (5x21=105)
