3. There are about 1.61 kilometers in 1 miles. Let x represent a distance measured in kilometers and y represent the same distance measured in miles. Write two equations that relate a distance measured in kilometers and the same distances measured in miles.

Respuesta :

We have been given that there are about 1.61 kilometers in 1 miles.

Let x represent a distance measured in kilometers and y represent the same distance measured in miles.

We can set two equations from the given information as:  

[tex]x=\frac{1}{1.16}*y[/tex] (Number of kilometers in terms of number of miles)

[tex]y=1.61*x[/tex]  (Number of miles in terms of number of kilometers)

Therefore, [tex]x=\frac{1}{1.16} y[/tex] and [tex]y=1.61*x[/tex] will be our equations.

Answer:

1.61
