For this question we can solve it by setting up a proportion:
![\frac{2inches}{25 miles}= \frac{3.4inches}{x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B2inches%7D%7B25%20miles%7D%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B3.4inches%7D%7Bx%7D%20%20)
Now we can solve for x to find the total distance between the towns. Let's cross multiply and solve for x:
![2x=85](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2x%3D85)
![x=42.5miles](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D42.5miles)
So now we know that
the total distance between the towns is 42.5 miles.
I believe it is 35 miles per 1 gallon. (35/1)
Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is given by
y=45,200 + 1,900x
and is of the form y = mx+b , where m is the rate of change and b is the fixed value ( or we can say initial value)
Now when we compare we get m = 1,900 for our problem .
So the population increases every year by 1,900.
108.625 divided by 1.75 = 62.1
