Hodaya is drawing a map of the trails in the canyon near her house. she knows that the distance from the first creek crossing to the second creek crossing is 1.8 miles. if every 3 inches on the map represents 0.75 of a mile, how far apart will the two creek crossings be on the map, to the nearest tenth of an inch?

7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The distance from the first creek crossing to the second creek crossing = 1.8 miles.

If every 3 inches on the map represents 0.75 of a mile

Then 0.75 mile= 3 inches

and 1 mile inches

Therefore 1.8 miles=

Therefore, the distance between the two creek crossings be on the map= 7 inches

for this case we have by definition, if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1.

then, given the following line:

so,

we are looking for m_ {2}:

then, the line is given by:

we find "b" replacing the given point:

finally, the equation is:

option c

i have no idea just need points sorry
