Oscar and Maria each wrote an equation that they felt represented the proportional relationship between distance in kilometers and distance in miles. One entry in the table paired 500 km with 75 miles. If y represents the number of kilometers and x represents the number of miles, who wrote the correct equation that would relate kilometers to miles? Explain why and show work to justify your reasoning. Oscar wrote the equation y = 0.15x and he said that 0.15 represents kilometers per mile.

Maria wrote the equation y = 6.7x and she said that 6.7 represents kilometers per mile.

the degrees would remain the same ( the number to the left of the decimal point.

the multiply the decimal by 60 to get the minutes and use the numbers to the left of the decimal point.

then multiply the decimal portion of that by 60 for the seconds and round off as needed.

39 .956652

the 39 remains the degrees.

the minutes = 0.956652 x 60 = 57.39912

the minutes = 57

the seconds = 0.39912 x 60 = 23.95 = 24 ( rounded to nearest tenth)

so 39.956652 = 39 degrees, 57 minutes and 24 seconds

-75.159809

the -75 remains the degrees

the minutes = 0.159809 x 60 = 9.58854

the minutes = 9

the seconds = 0.58854 x 60 = 35.31, rounded to nearest tenth = 35.3 seconds

so -75.159809 = -75 degrees, 9 minutes and 35.3 seconds.

the first coordinate is north or south, since it it positive it is north.

the second number is east or west, because it is negative it is west.

39 degrees, 57 minutes and 24 seconds n

-75 degrees, 9 minutes and 35.3 seconds w

0.5?

hope your goes well, here's a turkey
