A wall map of the United States has a distance of 8.5 in. between Memphis and Denver, two cities that are actually 1040 mi apart. The actual distance between St. Louis and Des Moines is 333 mi. How far apart are St. Louis and Des Moines on the map?

2.72 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1040/8.5=122.35

1 inch on the map = 122.35 miles actual distance

333/122.35=2.72

i think it's either c or d

step-by-step explanation: the entire question is extremely odd. 04 obviously refers to the interest rate. honestly i will say the answer is c. because the (2 x 12) part would mean it's compounded semiannually. i'll say choose c.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
