Answer: actual length = 45 ft

Explanation:

Scale drawn:

1/2 inch = 5ft

Meaning that if the drawing scale is 0.5 inch then the actual bus would be 5ft.

If the length of the drawn school bus is 4 1/2 inches. We can write:

1/2 = 5
4 1/2 = x

=> x = (5 x 4 1/2)/1/2
Or x = (5 x 4.5)/0.5
x = 22.5/0.5
x = 45

Therefore the actual length of the bus is 45 ft

Which of the lines graphed has a slope of -1/2 and a y-intercept of 3
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The correct option is C).

Figure show the line with slope of -1/2 and a y-intercept of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line is given by y=mx+c.

Where m is slope and c is y-intercept.

Given that line has slope

m=\frac{-1}{2} and c=3

Thus equation of line will be

y=mx+c.

y=\frac{-1}{2}x+3

To plot the line we need at least two points

Take x=0

y=\frac{-1}{2}x+3

y=\frac{-1}{2}0+3

y=3

The required point is A(0,4)

Take x=2

y=\frac{-1}{2}2+3

y=2

The required point is B(2,2)

Using this points to graph the given equation of line

Figure show the line with a slope of -1/2 and a y-intercept of 3

The correct option is C).

Someone help me with this geometry homework !!!!!! 10 points!
Reil [10]

Answer:  3a = (0, 1)       3b = (2, 1)      3c = (2.5, 1)      3d = (1.6, 1)

               4a = (2, 3.5)             4b = (2, 3)           4c = (2, 5.375)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The length of AB is 6 and is horizontal (affects the x-coordinate)

3a)\quad 6\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)\quad =3\qquad \qquad A(-2, 1) +(3, 0)= C(1,1)\\\\\\3b)\quad 6\bigg(\dfrac{2}{3}\bigg)\quad =4\qquad \qquad A(-2, 1) +(4,0)= C(2,1)\\\\\\3c)\quad 6\bigg(\dfrac{3}{4}\bigg)\quad =\dfrac{9}{2}\qquad \qquad A(-2, 1) +(4.5,0)= C(2.5,1)

3d)\quad 6\bigg(\dfrac{3}{5}\bigg)\quad =\dfrac{18}{5}\qquad \qquad A(-2, 1) +(3.6,0)= C(1.6,1)

***********************************************************************************

The length of AB is 5 and is vertical (affects the y-coordinate)

4a)\quad 5\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)\quad =\dfrac{5}{2}\qquad \qquad A(2, 1) +(0,2.5)= C(2,3.5)\\\\\\4b)\quad 5\bigg(\dfrac{2}{5}\bigg)\quad =2\qquad \qquad A(2, 1) +(0,2)= C(2,3)\\\\\\4c)\quad 5\bigg(\dfrac{7}{8}\bigg)\quad =\dfrac{35}{8}\qquad \qquad A(2, 1) +(0,4.375)= C(2,5.375)
