-1 Let's say the set of downs starts at the 20 yard line (maybe the kicking team kicked deep, the receiving team took a knee and so play starts at the 20).
Ok - we're at the 20. First down - they advance 5 yards. So we're now at the 25. We can write that mathematically as:
20
+
5
=
25
So the second play they get sacked deep and lose 6 yards. So we subtract 6:
25
−
6
=
19
So what's the change in yardage for the 2 plays? We are on the 19 and started at the 20, so we can write:
19
−
20
=
−
1
and this makes sense because we know we advanced 5 and fell back 6

Gulf gully and jump rope road are a pretty far distance.If the scale for the map is 0.5 inches=2.3 miles,what is the actual dist
Nezavi [6.7K]

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 \frac{map}{real world} and simplify.

We know \frac{map}{real world}=\frac{0.5in}{2.3 miles}. 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 \frac{4.7in}{xmiles} and  \frac{2.4in}{xmiles}

We set them equal.

\frac{0.5}{2.3}=\frac{4.7}{x}

and

\frac{0.5}{2.3}=\frac{2.4}{x}

To solve each proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

2.3(4.7)=0.5(x)\\10.81=0.5x\\\frac{10.81}{0.5}=\frac{0.5x}{0.5} \\21.62 miles=x

and

2.3(2.4)=0.5(x)\\5.52=0.5x\\\frac{5.52}{0.5}=\frac{0.5x}{0.5} \\11.04 miles=x

Select the equation of the line parallel to the equation y = -2x - 7 that passes through the point (3, 1).
sasho [114]
Y = -2x - 7 
slope = -2 (parallel shares the same slope, -2)

Option A:
y = -2x + 7
slope = -2

At (3, 1)
y = -2(3) + 7 = 1
