Answer:

The shorter side should be 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the longer side of the image be 'x'.

We have the flag with dimensions 4 inch by 8 inch.

It is given that the flag and its enlarged image are similar.

Since, 'similar figures have the ratio of the sides equal'.

So, we get,

\frac{4}{8}=\frac{x}{6}

i.e. x=\frac{4\times 6}{8}

i.e. x=\frac{24}{8}

i.e. x = 3 inches.

Thus, the shorter side should be 3 inches so that the flag and its image are similar.

What is the slope of the line?
meriva
The slope of the line can be defined as y = mx + b, where m is the slope
To find the slope, one will need to use the expression Δy/Δx (y final - y initial)/(x final - x initial)
For this problem, that equals 1/3

Now we will use the point slope form
(y - y initial) = m (x - x initial):

y + 1 = 1/3 (x - 2)

y = 1/3x - 5/3
