Answer:
20ft
Explanation:
You multiply the model length by the scale factor to find the actual length. <u>If the scale factor is less than zero, then the actual size will be smaller than the model</u>. Therefore, your answer would be 20ft.
Specifically, the scale factor is .8 if the actual size is 20ft, 1 if the actual size is 25ft, and 1.2 if the actual size is 30ft.

Hello!
Okay, so first we need to add like terms... so first, add the terms with the same variables. That gives us:
9x + 7y + 4 + y
Now add 7y and y
That gives us:
9x + 8y + 4
This can't be added anymore... this is as far as we can go because they are no longer like terms.

Answer: The fraction 2/5</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
We have three points marked on this diagonal line. Each point has integer or whole number coordinates. I find it is easiest to start with the y intercept, which in this case, is the point (0,0). This is the origin.
From the origin, move 2 units up and 5 units to the right to arrive at the next neighboring point (5,2).
This shows that,
slope = rise/run = 2/5
The rise indicates how much we have gone up or down. The run is the amount you move to the right. If the rise is negative, then you have gone downhill. By "downhill", I mean when the graph is read from left to right.
-------
Optionally you can use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
with any two points you want from the graph.
