The distance in miles in the distance in inches vary directly on a map. The legend on the map shows that 16 miles are represented by 0.5 inches. What is the actual distance between the two cities if they are 3 inches apart on the map? In the situation distance in =x. A) 96 miles
B)72miles
C)80miles
D)104miles

b

step-by-step explanation:

it have 5 sides and 5 identicle angle.the rest does not have the same property as b.

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
