To figure this out you would need to create a rectangle with dimensions that give you an area of 7 ft.². The easiest example would be a rectangle that is one by seven. If the scale is 1:16, that means for every foot it is actually representing 16 feet. The actual length and width would be found by multiplying 1×16 and 7×16. The true dimensions then would be 16 x 112. Multiply this together to get a total area of 1792 ft.².
The slope of the red line is 5. The correct answer is option B. 5
Two parallel lines, always have the same slope. Since the green and red line are parallels and the green line has slope 5, the slope of the red line is also 5.
