<h3>Answer:  11.2 inches</h3>

Work Shown:

(real height)/(scale height) = (real length)/(scale length)

(10 feet)/(8 inches) = (14 feet)/(x inches)

10/8 = 14/x

10x = 8*14

10x = 112

x = 112/10

x = 11.2 inches

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

i think b

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,2). When x of the line is 2, y of the line must be 2.

(-2,-2). When x of the line is -2, y of the line must be -2.

(2,2). y=mx+b or 2=1 × 2+b, or solving for b: b=2-(1)(2). b=0.

(-2,-2). y=mx+b or -2=1 × -2+b, or solving for b: b=-2-(1)(-2). b=0.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(2,2) and (-2,-2)

is

y=1x

b came out to be zero, so there is no "+b" term.

Please help step by step!!!
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

We first are going to flip the equation around.

So instead of 9 times x = -36 we'll do 36/9. 36/9 = -7.

Also you will kind of know it will be a negative number from the beginning since it's -36.

I don't know if that last part makes any sense, but I hope this helps you!
