Direct variation is
y=kx
subsitute
-6=-36k
diivde both sdies by -36
1/6=k
the equation is
y=1/6x or B
Area of a rectangle = length (l) * width (w)
A = 30ft * 20ft
A = 600 sq ft
Now the width of a sidewalk that surroundeds it = 3 ft
so now the area of the rectangle with sidewalk= 30+3ft * 20+3ft
A = (33*23) ft
A = 759 sg ft
Area of the sidewalk = 759 - 600
A = 159 sq ft
Based on the given conditions, formulate: 5/35
Simplify by dividing by dividing the numerator and denominator by 5: 1/7
Therefore the scale of the drawing is 1/7
Y = mx + c therefore
m = 1
c = -2
