Answer:

It would be 3.2 inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the scale factor. In order to do so, we need compare the actual length to the model length.

5ft:8in = 60in:8in = 7.5in:1in

Now we use that scale factor for the height. Divide the height of the actual panda by the scale.  

2ft /7.5in = 24in/7.5in = 3.2 in

Write an equation in slope-intercept form and then in standard form for each line described. y-intercept -2; x-intercept 5
Xelga [282]
Hello
the line passes by A ( 0 ; -2)  and B (5 ; 0) equation : y = ax+b
a is a slop : a = (yb - ya)/(xb -xa)
a = (0+2)/(5-0)
a =2/5
y = (2/5)x+b
if x=5 and y= 0
0 = (2/5)(5)+b
b= - 2
the equation is : y = (2/5)x-2

Choose the correct slope of the line that passes through the points (1, −3) and (3, −5).
Flura [38]
Slope of a line passing though point (x1,y1) nd (x2,y2) is
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

we have
(1,-3) and (3,-5)
x1=1
y1=-3
x2=3
y2=-5

slope=(-5-(-3))/(3-1)=(-5+3)/(2)=-2/2=-1

slope=-1

Select three ratios that are equivalent to 11:1
zavuch27 [327]
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the following ratio given in the problem above: 

 11:1

 2. You can rewrite that ratio as below:

 11/1=11

 3. Then, to find three equivalent ratios, you only need to multiply the numerator (11) and the denominator (11) by the sam number. Therefore, you have:

 11x2/1x2=22/2=11
 11x3/1x3=33/3=11
 11x4/1x4=44/4=11

 Therefore, as you can see, the answer is:

 22:2
 33:3
 44:4
