Answer:

<em>1,760 actual miles separate Springfield from Glenview.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling</u>

Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which is basically multiplying or dividing real dimensions by a constant factor. We use scaling when representing geographic locations on a map.

The map has the scale:

0.75 inch => 220 miles

This gives us the scaling factor as 220/0.75. There is no need to divide.

We are given the distance from Springfield to Glenview is 6 inches on the map. The actual distance is

6*220/0.75 = 1,760

1,760 actual miles separate Springfield from Glenview.

solmaris [256]

Answer:

3500

Step-by-step explanation:

I divided everything and I ended up just multiplying 70x50 which got me 3500. I'm sorry, but I don't know in what way to write the equation. I don't know if it's y=mx+b or some other way. all I was able to come up with was y=50x+70

The graph of the parent function y = x3rd power is horizontally stretched by a factor of 1/5 and reflected over the y-axis. What
kodGreya [7K]
  • y=x³

Horizontally streched means change in x

So

New equation

  • y=kx³

k is factor

  • y=1/5x³

We know the rule for reflection (x,y)=(x,-y)

So

New function

  • -y=1/5x³
  • y=-1/5x³

Option D
