At a height of about 212 meters, One Shell Square is the tallest building in New Orleans. Marlie is creating a scale model of this building, using the scale factor 1:250. To the nearest tenth of a meter, what will be the height of the scale model?

0.8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is 1:250 (can be rewritten as 1/250 or 1 to 250).

1/250 × 212 = 0.848 Meters

Round to the nearest tenth, the scale model will be 0.8 meters.

OR: SET UP A PROPORTION:

cross-multiply

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
