Answer:
The slope of the line is 2. To find the slope I marked two points on the line, which were (-3, 0) and (-2, 2). Then I used the
technique. Moving up 2 units and to the right 1 unit, which would be represented by
.
The walls are vertical so the angle opposite X would be a right angle which is 90 degrees.
X would be 180 - 90 - 35 = 55 degrees
X and 2y - 5 are complementary angles which add together to equal 90:
2y - 5 + 55 = 90
Simplify:
2y +50 = 90
Subtract 50 from both sides:
2y = 40
Divide both sides by 2:
y = 20
450/5= 90 units
90/5= 18 units
All you need to do is divide the real dimensions by the scale dimensions, and turn that answer to units. Notice: It said 1 unit: 5 feet
The scale drawing was 90 to 18 units.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
a = 1.95
Step-by-step explanation:
40a - 61 = 17
40a - 61 + 61 = 17 + 61
40a = 78
40a / 40 = 78 / 40
a = 1.95
