1. 5:15 = 1/3
scale factor is 1/3going from bigger to smaller
2. 2/8 = 1/4
14 x 1/4 = 3.5
X = 3.5
42•48=2,016. Hope this helped!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the difference between the 2 points.
For example, (8, 9) (5, 3).
Compare the difference between the x's, in this case 8 and 5. The difference is 3. Do the same with the y's, 9 and 3. The difference is 6.
To find the slope, it's y/x. The slope in this situation is 6/3. Simplify. The slope is 2.
To find the y-intercept, insert the slope and one of the 2 points in the beginning into y = mx + b & solve for b.
For example, if we use the ordered pair (5, 3) the equation would look like:
3 = 2(5) + b, Solve for b.
Multiply. 3 = 10 + b
Get b by itself by adding - 10 to both sides.
-7 = b
The y-intercept is -7. So, in this case, the equation is y = 2x - 7.
The answer is $6.38 hope this helps
I believe the answer would be a.
