If you were to measure a straight line from New York to Hong Kong it would measure 12.6 cm. If the scale of the map says that 30

00 miles are 3.2 cm, what is the distance between New York and Hong Kong in miles?

WE can solve it by ratio and proportions

Let the distance be x

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{x}{12.6}=\dfrac{3000}{3.2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3.2x=3000(12.6)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3.2x=37800

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{37800}{3.2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=11812.5mi

Answer:

  • 11812.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • 3000 miles → 3.2 cm
  • x miles → 12.6 cm

<u>Solve for x by cross-product:</u>

  • 3.2x = 3000*12.6
  • x = 37800/3.2
  • x = 11812.5 miles

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (−2, −3) with a slope of −6.
Daniel [21]
Y=mx+b where m=-6, x=-2, and y=-3. Substituting these values in would result in -3=(-6)(-2)+b, which would simplify to -3=12+b, and further to b=-15. This would mean the y intercept is equal to -15, or (0,-15). To check, (-6)*(-2)-15 is in fact equal to -3, thus allowing easy identification of a graph, which will cross the y axis at -15 and decrease in y-value by 6 with every increase in x-value.

Find an equation of the line through the given pair of points. (-7,-5) and (-1,-9) The equation of the line is (Simplify your an
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = -2/3x - 29/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of these points (-7,-5) and (-1,-9) is m = -2/3

Once you plug that into the y = mx + b equation, you can see that the y-intercept is -29/3.

Put all of that into the y = mx + b equation and you'll get -->  y = -2/3x - 29/3

What's 17 percente of 200?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

17% of 100 is 17, so you can put that into a proportion, 17/100.  We need to find what the numerator will be if the denominator is 200. Since you multiply 100 by 2 to get to 200, you have to do the same to the top, and 17x2 is 34.

Therefore, the correct answer is 34.

Hope I helped!!!
