Let say the mainsail length and width is L1 and W1, staysail length and width is L2 and W2. 
<span>The base and height of the triangular mainsail of a sailboat are 1.5 times greater than the base and height of the boat's triangular staysail. That mean:
L1 = 1.5L2
W1 =1.5 W2

</span>How many times greater is the area of the mainsail than the area of the staysail?area1/area2 =
L1*W1 / L2*W2 =
1.5L2 * 1.5W2/ L2*W2 = 1.5 * 1.5= 2.25 times

Write the slope intercept form of the equation of the line through the given points and slope 1,1 and slope of -3/5
Maslowich

Slope is already given in the question so we only need to solve for the y-intercept.

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

-3/5 = -0.6

1 = -0.6(1) + b

1 = -0.6 + b

1 + 0.6 = -0.6 + b + 0.6

1.6 = b

Now, write in slope-intercept form.

y = -3/5x - 1.6

______

Best of Luck,
