When x = 1
5(1) = -y + 6
5 = -y + 6
y = 6 - 5 = 1

When x = 2
5(2) = -y + 6
10 = -y + 6
y = 6 - 10 = -4

When x = 3
5(3) = -y + 6
15 = -y + 6
y = 6 - 15 = -9

Test 1 in for x

5(1)= -y +6
5= -y+6
Subtract 6 from both sides

-1 = -y

Divide by -1 to get 1=y

x=2
5(2)= -y +6
10= -y+6

Subtract 6 from both sides
4= -y

Divide by -1

-4=y
---------------------------
X=3
5(3)= -y +6
15= -y +6

Subtract 6 from both sides
9= -y

Divide by -1
-9 = y

Maureen measured a house and its lot and made a scale drawing. The scale she used was

PIT_PIT [208]

The most appropriate choice for unitary method will be given by-

Length of driveway in the drawing is 3 inch

What is unitary method?

Unitary method is the method in which value of a single unit can be calculated from the value of a multiple unit and value of a multiple unit can be calculated from the value of a single unit.

Sometimes value of single unit is less than value of multiple unit

For example - cost of food and quantity of food

Sometimes value of single unit is more than value of multiple unit

For example- Number of men and time taken by those men to do a work

Here,

Scale used by Maureen is 1 inch = 8ft

Actual length of house's driveway = 24 feet

8 ft of room is equal to 1 inch on scale

1 ft of room is equal to $\frac{1}{8}$ inch on scale
