8. A map has a scale of 1:50 000. 8. a) If the distance on the map is 2,5 cm, what is the actual distance on land?

c = 2.5m + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

because m is number of miles it is just like x in y = mx + b

c is basically y because it is the result

the equation is

c = 2.5m + 3

2.5 per mile and adding 3 for each trip

when graphing this your y intercept is at 3

2.5 is also 5/2 when turned into a fraction so you go up 5 and left 2 to find the next point on the line
