I bealive if it is the nature of the slope in unison comparing y-intercept elgebra it is Y=3x-3/4
3x moved 3 units to the left, -5y moved 14 units to the right.
Let us find the co ordinates of each vertex of the triangle .
Vertex A ( in firs second quadrant) = ( -5 ,3)
vertex B in third quadrant = ( -5, -5)
vertex C in fourth quadrant = ( 4, -2)
let us use distance formula AB^2 = ( -5 - 3)^2 + (-5 - -5 )^2 = 64 + 0
AB= 8
BC^2 = ( -2 - -5 )^2 + ( 4 - - 5)^2 = 9 + 81 = 90
BC = 9.48
AC^2 = ( -2 -3)^2 +( 4- -5)^2 = 25 + 81 = 106
AC= 10.29
Perimeter = sum of length of AB+ BC+ Ac = 8 + 10.29 + 9.48= 22.77
The thickness of the board was decreased from 3 / 4 inches to 9 / 16 inches.
Therefore,
So the board's thickness in inches decreased by
