Answer:
15 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 inch = 3 miles
1 inch = 6 miles
2 inches = 12 miles
2.5 inches = 15 miles
24 because when you plug in 0 for both x and y:
0=12(0)+24
12*0=0, leaving you with 24.
C is the answer look at the way I. form is
Remark
You are using the midpoint formula. Instead of finding the midpoint, you are looking for one of the points, so you have to rearrange the formula a little bit.
Givens
Midpoint (4,2)
One endpoint (6,1)
Object
Find the other endpoint.
Formula
m(x,y) = (x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)
Solution
Find the x value
4 = (6 + x2)/2 Multiply both sides by 2
4*2 = 6 + x2 Subtract 6 from both sides.
8 - 6 = x2
x2 = 2
Find the y value
2 = (1 + y2)/2 Multiply by 2
4 = 1 + y2 Subtract 1 from both sides.
4 - 1 = y2
y2 = 3
Conclusion
R(x,y) = (2,3)
16/10=1.6 so the smallest number of combos would be 1.
