An architect notices that the scale on a blueprint he is using has been torn off. however, he sees that a 12.5-ft. wall that has been built is 5 in. long on the blueprint. what is the scale for this blueprint?

The scale is : 1 in : 2.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

An architect notices that the scale on a blueprint he is using has been torn off.

However, he sees that a 12.5-ft. wall that has been built is 5 in. long on the blueprint.  

Let the scale be x

So, scale = = 2.5

So, the answer is : 1 in : 2.5 ft

The scale is : 1 in : 2.5 ft

pls make me brainliest

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

the diver is 33 feet below the surface.
