Alight-year is a unit used to measure large distances in space. one light-year is approximately equal to 5.88 trillion miles. on a map of the milky way galaxy, the scale is 3 inches: 50 light year. if two stars on the map are 18 inches apart, about how far apart are they in the galaxy?you

Remark

Don't be fooled by the size of the numbers. You do this the same way you would if you were doing a question on the distance between New York and Boston on a map where they are 2.5 inches apart. What you can do is set up a proportion and leave off the word trillion until the very end.

Givens

d1 = 50 (trillion) light years. scale size = 3 inches.

d2 = x scale size 1 = 18 inches.

50*18 = 3x

900 = 3x Divide by 3

900/3 = x

300 = x

Answer

The distance between the two stars is 300 light years which is unimaginable.

don't know what that says sorry i can't you

step-by-step explanation:

idk what it says

y-y1=4(x-x1)

step-by-step explanation:

this is point-slope form since you only have 4 as the slope it goes in place of m

hope this : )
