Answer:
the new scale is the same length as the original scale
Answer:
Part 1) The constant of variation is 
part 2) The equation is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form
or
Let
x -----> the number of square feet
y -----> the number of square yards
Three square yards are equivalent to 27 square feet
so
we have the point (27,3)
Part 1) What is the constant of variation?
The constant of variation or proportionality is equal to

substitute the values

Simplify

Part 2) What is the equation representing the direct variation?
we know that
substitute the value of k

Any number times 0 is going to equal 0
Given choices:
(1) division property of equality
(2) factoring the binomial
(3)completing the square
(4)subtraction property of equality
Answer : (2) factoring the binomial
Step 1: 
Step 2:![-c = a[x^2+\frac{b}{a} x]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%20-c%20%3D%20a%5Bx%5E2%2B%5Cfrac%7Bb%7D%7Ba%7D%20x%5D%20%20%20)
In step 2, 'a' is taken out from
. when we take out 'a' we divide each term by 'a'. so it becomes ![a[x^2+\frac{b}{a} x]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%20%20a%5Bx%5E2%2B%5Cfrac%7Bb%7D%7Ba%7D%20x%5D%20%20%20)
'a' is factored out in step 2. we call it as factoring a binomial.
