and simplify.
We know
. We know the distance on the map is 12 cm and 6 cm whish converts to 4.7 inches and 2.4 inches. We can write
and
We set them equal.
and
To solve each proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

and

Step-by-step explanation:
tell me if u have more questions
y=-x+5
is the line so to make it perpendicular
y=1/x-1/5 i gtg
Answer:
-(4/7)
or
if you are above 11th standard
4/7i
5/4 is the constant of proportionality
