1 answer:
We have been given that a 208-yard-long road is divided into 16 parts of equal length.
Let us find length of each part.
Length of each part will be 13 yards.
We are told that Mr. Ward paints a 4-yard-long strip in each part.
Now we will subtract length of painted strip from length of each equal part to find length of unpainted strip of each part of the road.
Therefore, length of each unpainted strip will be 9 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:
The question lacks appropriate diagram. Find the diagram attached.
Slope is the change in coordinate of the y coordinate to the x coordinate.
Mathematically, slope m = ∆y/∆x
From the diagram ∆y is the same as 3 (along the vertical) while ∆x is the same as 1 (along the horizontal)
m = ∆y/∆x = 3/1
∆y/∆x = 3/1
y/x = 3/1
Cross multiply
y × 1 = 3 × x
y = 3x
Hence the slope of the line is y = 3x
