Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In a quadratic equation in the Standard form

You need to remember that "a", "b" and "c" are the numerical coefficients (Where "a" is the leading coefficient and it cannot be zero:
).
You can observe that the given quadratic equation is written in the Standard form mentioned before. This is:

Therefore, you can identify that the values of "a", "b" and "c" are the following:

For the scale factor, use the dimensions from similar sides:
Using 18 from the original image you would use 6 from the scaled image.
18 /6 = 3
This means the scaled image is 3 times smaller than the original. Because the scaled image is smaller divide 1 by the scale factor to get 1/3.
Q2:
The scale factor is 1 inch = 12 miles.
Multiply the total inches by 12:
6.5 x 12 = 78 miles.
5x-y=3
Not sure if it’s correct
6/9=2/3 because we divide both sides by 3
