5x - 15 = 2x - 6
3x = 9
x = 3
Y = 5(3) - 15
Y = 0
(3,0)
It is x/1 inch=6 inches/3 miles
Check the picture below.
the segment LOJ is a diameter, and therefore the arcLCJ made by that diameter will have a central angle of 180°.
that simply means that the arcLC is 180 - 94, or 86°.
the ∡LJC is an inscribed angle that is intercepting the arcLC, and therefore, by the inscribed angle theorem, it'll be half of arcLC.
270,000 is the answer because you have three over 100 so you do 100 divided by three which give you 0.15 then you do 120,000 times 0.15 to find out how much it grows per year to get 18,000 then you multiply 18’000 by 15 and get 270’000
