Lalasa and Yasmin are designing a triangular banner to hang in the school gymnasium. They first draw the design on paper. The triangle has a base of 5 inches and a height of 7 inches. If 1 inch on the drawing Is equivalent to 1.5 feet on the actual banner, what will the area of the actual banner be? A 52.5 ft2 B 17.5 ft2 39.375 ft2 D 78.75 ft2​

Find the actual Dimensions of the triangle.

Multiply the size of the triangle on paper by 1.5 feet per inch:

Width = 5 x 1.5 = 7.5 feet.

Height= 7 x 1.5 =10.5 feet

Area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height:

Area = 1/2 x 7.5 x 10.5 = 39.375 square feet.

39.375 square feet.

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form
