Step-by-step explanation:
1.) Plug in one of the points.
y = 8x + b
6 = 8(4) + b
2.) Solve for b (or [?])
32 cancels out on the right side.
Subtract 32 from 6, which is -26
3.) -26 = b
4.) Check with other point:
-2 = 8(3) + b
-2 = 24 + b
Cancel out 24 on the right side: 24-24 = 0
-2 - 24 = -26
-26 = b
Given:
The side of square = 12 in.
Scale factor of enlargement = 3 in : 2 m
To find:
The proportion that is use to solve the side length, x, of the enlarged square.
Solution:
Let, the side of length of enlarged square = x m
In case of enlargement the corresponding sides are proportional.
Divide both sides by 3.
Therefore, the required proportion is and the side length of the square after enlargement is 8 m.
