<u>We know that:</u>
Slope of a line = change in y coordinate / change in x coordinate
<u>We are given:</u>
First point = (2,5)
Second point = (5, 14)
<u>Calculating the change in y coordinate:</u>
change in y (also represented by Δy) = second y - first y
Δy = 14 - 5
Δy = 9
<u>Calculating the change in x coordinate:</u>
Δx = second x - first x
Δx = 5 - 2
Δx = 3
<u>Slope of the line:</u>
Slope = (Δy) / (Δx)
Slope = 9 / 3 [replacing the values]
Slope = 3
Answer:
x < - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If one foot in real is 1/2 inches, then 1 inch in a blueprint is 2 feet. So a rectangle 18 by 22 inches will represent 18 * 2 by 22 * 2 feet in real. So the size of the yard is 36 by 44 feet.
