Answer:
D. The scale factor is 1:840
Step-by-step explanation:
Make 630 ft into inches, so 7560
Then make it 9/7560, which simplifies to 1/840
The coordinates of A will be (2P +M)/3
= (2(16, 14) +(1, 4))/3 = (33/3, 32/3) = (11, 32/3)
The appropriate choice is
(C) (11, 32/3)
_____
You will note that the coordinates of A are the weighted average of the coordinates of the end points. The weighting is the reverse of the ratio of the line segments. That is, the point adjacent to the shortest segment gets the highest weighting. (This is typical of the solution to "mixture" problems.)
The equation is:
2/3n + 4 = 7
