Answer:
B. Side <em>a</em> is 7 inches long and side <em>b</em> is 6 inches long.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the scale drawing is three times bigger than the actual object, divide both numbers by three to find the object size.
Side a:
21/3 = 7 inches
Side b:
18/3 = 6 inches

Define the number of cakes they baked in term of x
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the number of cakes Kay baked be x
Kay = x
Tim = 3x ← Tim baked 3 times as many as Kay
Griff = 1.5x ← Griff baked 1/2 as many as Tim
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Construct the equation and solve for x
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The total number of cakes baked was 88.
x + 3x + 1.5x = 88 ← Combine like terms
5.5 x = 88 ← Divide by 5.5
÷5.5 ÷5.5
x = 16
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of cakes each baked
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kay = x = 16
TIm = 3x = 16 x 3 = 48
Griff = 1.5x = 1.5(16) = 24
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Tim baked 48 cakes.

The other end point would be (5,-11)
