Yes you are correct the answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
you do know that 1 cm = 10 mm, right ?
so,
6 cm = 6×1 cm = 6×10 mm = 60 mm
and that is the ultra-ultra long form of doing this ...
The y values decrease as the x values increase. If you picture the points in your head, you’ll see that (2,2) is to the right and lower than (-3,5), creating a negative slope.
If the markers are 4.5 inches away on the map, and 2.5 inches represents 10 miles, then we need to make ratios we can work with.
Inches / Miles:
4.5 / x
2.5 / 10
Now, we can cross multiply to end up with:
2.5 * x = 4.5 * 10
Simplify:
2.5x = 45
Divide 2.5 on each side:
2.5x / 2.5 = 45 / 2.5
Simplify:
x = 45 / 2.5
x = 18
Awesome! Now we have a real ratio on the real distance of the markers.
<span>2.5 : 10 & 4.5 : </span><span>18.

18 miles is the actual distance between the two markers.
Hope I could help! If my math is wrong, or it isn't the answer you are looking for, please let me know!

Since Angle QPS is a straight angle, it equals 180 degrees.
Angles QPR and RPS equal QPS.
Angle QPR + Angle RPS = QPS
(7x-4) + (9x-40) = 180
x=14
