The scale drawing of a rectangle floor mat has dimensions 9 inches by 8 inches. the length of the longer side of the actual mat is 63 ft. enter the area, in square feet of the actual mat. can someone , i missed some school and now i can't understand how to answer the question so sent ! 1

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the scale drawing

The scale drawing is the ratio between corresponding measures

we know that

The longer side of the actual mat is 63 ft

The longer side of the scale drawing mat is 9 in

so

The scale drawing is

Simplify

That means

1 inch in the scale drawing represent 7 feet in the actual

step 2

Find how many feet represent 8 inches

Multiply by 7

step 3

Find the area of the actual mat

The dimensions are 56 ft x 63 ft

so

The area is

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

answer: the answer is simply nothing.

step-by-step explanation: because there is no ending to this question
