For this case, the first thing we must do is find the scale factor.
For this, we use one of the dimensions. We will use the width of the photo.
We have then:
Then, we look for the value of the height of the new photo. To do this, we multiply the scale factor by the original dimension.
We have then:
Answer:
the new height will be:
d.168 inches
Given parameters:
Coordinates of end points = (2, -3) and (-6,5).
Slope of line =
Unknown:
Equation of the line with the given slope = ?
Solution:
Let us find the coordinates of the mid-point of the line given.
Since the end points are (2, -3) and (-6,5);
Midpoint;
x, y = ,
x, y = ,
= -2 , 1
The coordinate of the mid point = -2,1
Equation of a line is;
y = mx + c
x and y are the coordinates
m is the slope
c is the y intercept
We need to find c in order to fully develop our equation;
y = mx + c
y = 1 , x = -2 and m =
So,
1 = x (-2) + c
c = 1 + =
Now, the equation of the line is;
y = -2x +
Multiply through by 7,
7y = -14x + 25
The equation of the line is 7y = -14x + 25
