Answer:
682,000 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the ratio of 186,000 miles per second:
we can set up a proportion (equivalent ratios) to find the distance, in miles, from the earth to the moon
where 'x' is the number of miles between the earth and the moon
Cross-multiply: x = 186,000*
Solve for x = 682,000 miles

Solution:
We can graph using the intercepts:
(1) y-intercept, when x=0
y=4x-3→y=4(0)-3→y=0-3→y=-3
Point=(x,y)=(0,-3)
(2) x-intercept, when y=0
y=4x-3→0=4x-3
Solving for x: Adding 3 both sides of the equation:
0+3=4x-3+3
3=4x
Dividing both sides of the equation by 4:
3/4=4x/4
3/4=x
x=3/4=0.75
Point=(x,y)=(3/4,0)=(0.75,0)
With these pair of points (0, -3) and (0.75,0) we can draw the right line
