On a map,1/4 inch between locations represents an actual distance of 2 miles between the locationswhat is the actual distamce in miles between the two cities that are 3 3/4 inches apart on the mapctual distance of 2 miles

y = -3/4 + 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula:

y = mx + b

Where:

m is the slope

b is the y-axis, the point where the line passes through

It says the slope of the line is -3/4 so we substitute it there.

y = -3/4x + b

Now for b, you were given that the line passed through (-5,4)

We substitute the coordinates to the equation and solve for b.

y = -3/4x + b

4 = -3/4(-5) + b

4 = 3/4(5) + b

4 = 15/4 + b

4 - 15/4 = b

1/4 = b

Now plug it in the equation to complete it.

y = -3/4x + 1/4

4 × 4 = 15 + b

16 - 15
