I think it's along the y-axis.....
(-y + 5a - 4) + (3y - a - 5) is simplified to 2y + 4a - 11
Answer:
D. 
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a translation 1 point up along the y axis and a compression of 4.
Moving a function up (let's use <em>h</em> for the amount of points up) would change the function as so:

Meanwhile, the compression would modify x in this case. You can eliminate any answers (A. and B.) that have no modification to x, and eliminate C., as a fraction modification would actually widen the graph instead of compress it.
Hope this helps! :]
If we had AB: BC: CD, we could easily have solved that problem. In order to combine these ratios, we need to have the same number for BC. We can create this number by finding LCM (Least Common Multiple) for 5 and 3, which is 15. Then, we can write ratios of AB:BC = 6:15 and BC:CD=15:20. Now, we can easily combine these ratios. AB:BC:CD = 6:15:20. Then, 6k+15k+20k = 82 and k=2 cm. And BC = 30 cm
