7x -7/2 y = -49
7/2 y = 7x + 49
y = 2x + 14
y - intercept = 14
x - intercept : 2x + 14 = 0 so x = -7
answer is C.
x - intercept : -7
y - intercept : 14
If you were to make both x's equivalent, you'd have to multiply the first equation by 2 to get rid of the coefficient, 1/2. However, you'd have to multiply 2 onto -8 as well, therefore the equation would turn into x - 16 = 18. That is not equivalent to x - 8 = 18.
The answer should be $8 if you are trying to find the unit rate. All you have to do is divide 32 by 4 and you get 8. Hope that helped.

Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know he travels at a rate of 1:7.5 all we have to do is divide 7.5 by 30. Do you use proportions? You can set this up as a proportion and the find answer easily.
1
Now we cross product.
7.5 multipled by x =7.5x
1x30=30
so now we have
7.5x=30
Now we have to divide 7.5 on both sides which gives us
x=4
