Step-by-step explanation:

3 in to 5 ft

so, one basic unit in the drawing is in fact 3 inches.

how many base units fit into the numbers ? these factors need then to be multiplied with the base units of 5 ft for reality.

6 inches high

6 / 3 = 2

so, the elephant is 2 units high, which means in reality 2×5 = 10 ft high.

10.8 inches long

10.8 / 3 = 3.6

so, the elephant is 3.6 units long, which means in reality 3.6×5 = 18 ft long.

Q# ..7 match the equation with its graph -4x - 2y =8

prisoha [69]

If you divide by 8, you can put the equation into intercept form. That form is ...

... x/a + y/b = 1

where a and b are the x- and y-intercepts, respectively.

Here, your equation would be

... x/(-2) + y/(-4) = 0

The graph with those intercepts is not shown with your problem statement here. See the attachment for the graph.
