<PRE><B>Question 1048608</B>
 the actual distance between cities is proportional to their measured distance on a map. the measured distance between two cities 75 miles apart is 3 inches on a map write an equation in the form of y=ax that can be used to find the actual distance to any two cities measured on a map 
-------
3inches = 75 miles
1 inch = 25 miles
-----
d(x) = 25*x where x is the measure in inches on the map.
