Answer:
2.1 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
you can see a drawing of the situation in the attached picture (you need to draw all the places mentioned and the distance between them),
this way we can form a right triangle between the school and the hospital with measures of sides: 1.7 and 1.2 miles
and the green line is the straight line between the school and the hospital, so you need pythagoras to find the value:

rounding to the nearest tenth:
2.1 miles
You basically would use how long they are. If you had a strip of 1/2 and a strip of 3/4... with blocks they wouldn't be the same length. The 3/4 blocks would be greater.
However if you matched a 1/2 strip with a 3/6 strip, you can see that they are the same length and are equivalent.
Of course their is a way to do it mathematically but let me know if you want to see that.
I’m pretty sure that it is 4
Answer: The answer is y=-1/3x+2.
Explanation:The slope equals,m=-1/3,when you do the rise over run method.Then the y-intercept equals,b=2,so that is how you get the answer y=-1/3x+2.
Hello!
The slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b. In this form, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Since we are given the slope, which is -1/2, and the y-intercept which is (0, -3/4). This means that the value of b is -3/4.
So therefore, the equation of the function is: y = -1/2x + -3/4.
