First simplify the section in the parenthesis.
-1/6 + 2/3(8 1/4) + -1/2
Then multiply 2/3 by 8 1/4.
-1/6 + 5 1/2 + -1/2
Add -1/2 to 5 1/2.
-1/6 + 5
Add 5 to -1/6.
4 5/6 is the fully simplified answer.
Hope this helps!
The point-slope formula is y-y1=m(x-x1). You will then substitute into this equation. The answer will be y-2=-8(x+3).
1st Avenue would be more difficult because it’s rise and run is for every one foot forward it is 3 feet up. Meanwhile avenue 16th would start at (3,1) and the rise and run would be for every 3 feet it would go up 1 foot.
your answer will be 2 inch for the first piece 4 inch for the second piece 20 inch for the last piece
