Answer:

B 1 inch = 16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve. Put the drawing over the real life

3.5 inches 1 inch

----------------- = ------------

56 ft x ft

Using cross products

3.5 x = 56

Divide each side by 3.5

3.5x/3.5 = 56/3.5

x =16

So 1 inch = 16 ft

Candice plotted the points (2, 15) and (0, -1) and then drew a line through these two points. What is the slope of the line she

FrozenT [24]

Use the slope equation: $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Plug in the points (2, 15) and (0, -1).
$\frac{-1-15}{0-2}$ ⇒ $\frac{-16}{-2}$ = 8

The slope of the line is 8.

$y\div2.4-1.7=-1.2$

${\underline{simplify}}$

$0.416667y-1.7=-1.2$

add $1.7$ to both sides

$0.416667y=0.5$

Divide both sides by $0.416667$

$y=1.2$

${\huge{\boxed{\sf{Answer}}}$

$y$ would equal $1.2$
