laura measured a picnic area near the river and made a scale drawing. the scale she used was 3 inches : 2 yards. if the picnic area is 90 inches wide in the drawing, how wide is the actual picnic area?

Answers

Answer 1

The acutal width of the picnic area by using proportion if the scale used is 3 inches : 2 yards will be 60 yards.

Let the actual width of the picnic area be x yards.

According to the given question.

Laura measured a picnic area near the river and made a scale drawing.

The scale she used was 3 inches : 2 yards.

⇒ The scale is 3 inches : 2 yards

The width of the picnic area in the drawing is 90 inches.

As we know that, a proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

Thereofore, the acutal width of the picnic area by using proportion if the scale used is 3 inches : 2 yards is given by

3inches : 2 yards = 90inches : x

⇒ 3x = 180

⇒ x = 60yards

The acutal width of the picnic area by using proportion if the scale used is 3 inches : 2 yards will be 60 yards.

How many times larger is (1.092 × 101) than (7 × 10−1)?

Answers

The number 1.092 × 10¹ is 15.6 times larger than  7 × 10⁻¹ .

A number is said to be in standard form if it can be written in a decimal number between 1.0 and 10.0 multiplied with power of 10.

For Example: 1.8x10² is a standard form .

In the given question

1.092×10¹   and    7×10⁻¹

both the numbers are in a standard form

For comparison we need to convert them in decimal form

1.092 × 10¹ = 1.092 x 10 = 10.92

7 × 10⁻¹ = 7/10 = 0.7

So , According to the question

Let 10.92 be x times larger than 0.7

which means

(0.7)*x=10.92

x=10.92/0.7

x=15.6

Therefore , 1.092 × 10¹ is 15.6 times larger than  7 × 10⁻¹ .

Answer:

[tex]\frac{211}{500}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex].4\bar{2}[/tex]  means the 2 repeats till infinity
[tex].4\bar{2}[/tex]  = .4222222222.....

To convert to fraction just take the first three decimal place digits 422 and divide by 1000 to convert to fraction

[tex].4\bar{2} = \frac{422}{1000}[/tex]

Dividing numerator and denominator of this fraction by 2 gives
[tex]\frac{422/2}{1000/2} =\frac{211}{500}[/tex]

This cannot be simplified further and therefore
[tex].4\bar{2} = \frac{211}{500}[/tex]

If we had chosen first 4 decimal digits then it would be[tex].4\bar{2} = \frac{4222}{10000} = \frac{2111}{5000}[/tex]

Question Help One side of the garage is now (Round to the nearest tenth as needed) Enter your answer in the answer box and then click Check Answer. -​

Answers

Required values:

The length of one side of the garage was originally 17.7 ft long

The length of one of the sides of the garage is now 21.7 ft long

The percentage increase in length is 22.5%.

Given parameters are;

The area of the square garage is 314 ft.²

The area of the new garage has 50% more space

Required;

Initial side length:

The initial side length, given to the nearest tenth, s, is the square root of the area, A, given as follows;

s = √(314 ft.²) ≈ 17.7 ft.

New Side length:

The side was increased by 50%, to give,

314 + 0.5×314 = 471

The new area of the garage = 471 ft.²

The side length of the new garage, s = √(471) ≈ 21.7 ft

The side of the garage now is 21.7 ft.

Percentage increase in length:

The percentage increase is given as follows;

% increase in length

= new side length - old side length / old side length * 100  

= 21.7 - 17.7 / 17.7 *100

= 22.5 %

Answers

There are 5 people in the family.

What is Ratio?

The ratio is defined as a relationship between two quantities, it is expressed as one divided by the other.

We have been given that each member of angela's family drank an 8-ounce mixture of coffee with milk.  

Let the number of people would be n.

And a represents the coffee, and  b represents the milk,

One-quarter of the milk and one-sixth of the coffee was consumed by Angela.

⇒ Angela drank b/4 of milk and a/6 of coffee.

Since everyone drank the same amount of coffee,

We have been to create an equation as

⇒ (a/6 + b/4)p = a + b

⇒ 2a(6 - n) = 3b(n - 4)

Given that both a and b are positive, we must fulfill the condition.

⇒(6 - n) > 0 and (n - 4) > 0

⇒ 6 > n and n > 4

So, the correct number of people = 5.

Hence, there are 5 people in the family.

What is exponential growth ?

An exponential function faster and faster after every next value of the independent variable.

According to the given question the number of bacteria in a culture is increasing according to the law of exponential growth. after 3 hours, there are 400 bacteria, and after 6 hours, there are 3,200 bacteria.

We use the exponential growth equation y = arˣ where a is the initial value and r is common ratio and x represents time.

so 400=ar^3...(i)  and 3200= ar^6...(i)

Dividing equation (ii) by equation (i) and solve for r we get r³ so r =2

How can the function, f(x) be scaled to give the function, [tex]y = f \left( \frac{1}{5} \cdot x \right) [/tex]?

The question is with regards to scaling a graph horizontally.

Using the rule of scaling a graph, we have;

Given that a point on the graph of f(x) is (x, y), the corresponding point in the graph of f(C•x) is (C•x, y).

The given modification of the function is presented as follows;

The points on the graph that completes the table are therefore;

Further, g(0) = -2 and g(-9) = 6

Let us evaluate each option one by one-

A. g(7) = -1

As we can see x can take values only from -20 to 5. And 7 is greater than 5. This means that the function us not defined at g(7) and hence, option A is not the correct option.

B. g(-13) = 20

Here, x=-13 is in our domain and y = 20 also lies within our range. Hence, this is the correct option.

C. g(0) = 2

We are already given that g(0) = -2. y can take only one unique value for every value of x and hence, g(0) cannot be equal to 2.

D. g(-4) = -11

As we can see y can take values only from -5 to 45. And -11 is smaller than 5. This means that the function us not defined at g(-4) and hence, option D is not the correct option.

Three lakes lost water during a drought. lake jensen lost one sixth of its water, lake parlow lost 26% of its water, and lake stockton lost thirty three two hundredths of its water. which lake lost the least amount of water?

Answers

If three lakes lost water during a drought, lake Jensen lost one-sixth of its water, lake Parlow lost 26% of its water, and lake Stockton lost thirty-three two-hundredths of its water, then the lake that lost the least amount of water is lake Stockton.

The lake that lost the least amount of water can be determined by converting the amounts lost by each of the lakes into percentage form.

As lake Jensen lost one-sixth of its water, it can be written in percentage form as,

Lake Jensen = 1/6 × 100 = 100/6 = 16.67 %

As given, Lake Parlow lost 26%

Lake Parlow = 26%

As Lake Stockton lost thirty-three two-hundredths, it can be written in percentage form as,

Lake Stockton = 33/200 × 100 = 0.165 ×  100 = 16.5 %

Thus, the least percentage of water lost is 16.5% by lake Stockton.
