Greetings!
"<span>A rectangular parking lot at the mega-mall is 7/10 mile long and 1/4 mile wide. How much fencing is needed to enclose the lot?"...
This question is essentially asking to solve for the perimeter. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

Input the information we already know:

Find A common denominator.

Simplify.

or
1 9/10 miles of fencing will be required to enclose the entire lot.
Hope this helps.

The equation:
y - y 1 = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2- x1) * ( x - x1 )
y - ( - 5 ) = ( 4 + 5 ) / ( - 5 + 7 ) * ( x - ( - 7 ) )
y + 5 = 9/2 ( x + 7 )
y + 5 = 9/2 x + 63 /2 / * 2
2 y + 10 = 9 x + 63
- 9 x + 2 x = 53
Answer:
C ) y + 5 = 9/2 ( x + 7 ) ; - 9 x + 2 y = 53
