Answer:
12 cm = 21.62 miles
6 cm = 11.04 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance, set up a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by using corresponding values. We write a ratio of 
and simplify.
We know 
. We know the distance on the map is 12 cm and 6 cm whish converts to 4.7 inches and 2.4 inches. We can write 
and 
We set them equal.
and
To solve each proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
and
When solving for a variable in an equation, get it separated from the others onto one side typically the left hand side and rest onto the opposite side usually the right hand side.
V = x / t
First, let us get the 't' variable out of denominator position and then it will be easier to work with.
V * t = (x / t) * t
Why did I multiply each side by 't' and not just the "x / t" expression? That is because every operation we do on one side, we must also do on the opposite side.
Okay, now we get the following equation.
V * t = x
We removed the 't' variable from denominator and in fact, it doesn't even exist anymore on the right hand side!
To complete this question, all we have to do is divide each side by 'V' and we are done!
(V * t) / V = x / V
Comes out to:
t = x / V
And there is your answer! Hope this helps with your adventure in learning Algebra!
Answer:
B) Graph B only.
Step-by-step explanation:
Table A is not correct, because:
In Y = 2X, replacing each row:
3 =/= 2 x 2
6 =/= 2 x 4
9 =/= 2 * 6
Table B is correct, because:
When Y is 2, X is 1 which is equal to 2x1.
When Y is 4, X is 2 which is equal to 2x2.
