Answer:
B)
Step-by-step explanation:
4y = 3x + 5 has a slope of 3/4
4y = 3x - 1 has a slope of 3/4
parallel lines have equal slopes
The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
C.4.1 in
Explanation:
We will use a proportion for this problem.
In the first ratio, we have 6 inches: 80 pounds. This can also be written as 6/80.
For the second ratio, we do not know the length; this is x. The weight is 55; this gives us x/55.
This makes our proportion
6/80 = x/55
Cross multiplying, we have
6(55) = 80(x)
330 = 80x
Divide both sides by 80:
330/80 = 80x/80
4.125 = x
This means the answer is 4.1.
