The quotient of 4 ÷ 4 = 1
From the diagram we have
Base =

Height =

Area = Base × Height
126 =

⇒ Expand the double bracket
126 =

⇒ Subtract 126 both sides
0 =

⇒ Factorise the quadratic expression
0 =

⇒ Equating each factor to zero


We need the positive value of

so we use

Height = 5+1 = 6
Base = 4(5)+1 = 21
Answer:
The slope is 9.5
The equation is y = 9.5x
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is in the form of y = mx + b, where m represents the slope.
In the case of our situation, y = 9.5x , b = 0 and m = 9.5
9.5 is the slope because that is the rate of change as x increases per ticket sale
I would say smaller than because you would be dilating the image by a number less than 1, which is making the image smaller.
