Write an equation for converting the numeber of meters to kilometersuse x as for number of meters and y for number of kilometers y use x as your variable class=

Respuesta :

The equation: y = (1/1000) x

Explanation:

if 3500meters = 3.5 km,

it means 1000 meters = 1 km

1 meters = 1/1000 km

if x = number of meters

y = number of kilometers

An equation for converting the number of meters to kilometers:

y = (1/1000) x

y = x/1000

Check: if x = 3500

y = 1/1000(3500) = 3.5km
