The answer is ERROR i tried it by hand and by calculator and both answers ended up as ERROR
Line Q, you always want the line that has as many dots on it as possible!! :)
In this picture, the fact that PQR and PML are similar triangles is important. This means that one triangle can be converted into the other by a scale factor. Among others, this means that
PQ/PR = PM/PL (common property of similar triangles)
Filling in what we know, we get:
(16x+2)/70 = 21/15, which simplifies to
8x+1 = (21*70)/(2*15) = 49
x = 48/8 = 6
60/25 = 2.4
2.4 x 2 = 4.8 inches = 60 miles
25/2 = 12.5 for 1 inch
12.5/4 = 3.125 miles for 1/4 inch
X ~ 17.5 y ~ 19.2 because it is and they’re congruent so just find the multiplier
