How do I put the slope and y-intercept on the graph
mestny [16]
So as you can see, -3 is the y-intercept. You would make a point on (-3,0) first. Then from the point, you would go up 1 and go right 2 because the slope is a positive 1/2 slope.

If AB is 12, what is the length of A'B'?
lukranit [14]

Triangles ABC and A'B'C are similar. This means that the corresponding sides are in the same ratio, in this case:

\frac{BC}{B^{\prime}C}=\frac{AC}{A^{\prime}C}=\frac{AB}{A^{\prime}B^{\prime}}

Replacing with data:

\begin{gathered} \frac{9}{6}=\frac{12}{A^{\prime}B^{\prime}} \\ 9\cdot A^{\prime}B^{\prime}=12\cdot6 \\ A^{\prime}B^{\prime}=\frac{72}{9} \\ A^{\prime}B^{\prime}=8 \end{gathered}

The scale on a map shows that 1 inch = 30 miles. If there are 4.5 inches between your present location and the place you want to
anastassius [24]

Scale : 1 inch = 30 miles

So, the ratio between the distance on the map and the real distance is 1:30

When a quantity increase/decrease in a ratio, the other one increase/decrease respectively.

Call the miles we have to go : x

1:30 = 4.5:x

(1x4.5):(30x4.5) = 4.5 : x

4.5 : 135 = 4.5 : x

So, x = 135 => We have to go 135 miles to get to the place we want to go.
