melissa drew a scale drawing of a city. a neighborhood park is 36 inches wide in the drawing. the actual park is 60 yards wide. what is the scale of the drawing?

Answers

Answer 1

The scale of the drawing by using proportion is 3 : 5.

According to the given question.

Melissa drew a scale drawing of a city.

The width of the park in the drawing is 36 inches.

And the actual width of the park is 60 yards.

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

Therefore, the scale of the drawing by using proportion

= 36iches/ 60 yards

= 3/5

= 3 : 5

Hence, the scale of the drawing by using proportion is 3 : 5.

How to write an equation in Slope Intercept Form?

The general formula for equation of a line in Slope Intercept form is;

y = mx + c

where;

m is slope

c is y-intercept

Now, from the given question, the table of values is;

Number of weeks         Amount of money owed

      0                                   10

Now, since Sophie agreed to pay back her friend $2 per week and originally borrowed $10, it means that;

Slope = 2

y-intercept = 10

find the angle between a diagonal of a cube and an adjacent edge. (enter your answer in degrees. round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

The angle between a diagonal of a cube and an adjacent edge is 54.75°;

Assuming the length of a side of the cube as 1 unit, the three sides are given by the vectors;

a = (1, 0, 0)

b = (0, 1, 0)

c = (0, 0, 1)

The diagonal is given by the vector, v = (1, 1, 1)

The angle between the diagonal and one edge of the cube is given by

cos θ = v. a / |v|.|a|

v. a = (1, 1, 1).(1, 0, 0)

= 1(1) + 1(0) + 1(0

= 1 + 0 + 0

v. a = 1

Magnitude of vector V = √[(1)² + (1)² + (1)²]

|v| = √3

Similarly, |a| = √1;

So, |v|.|a| = √3.√1 = √3

Now, cos θ = 1/√3

So, θ = cos¹(1/√3)

θ = 54.75°

Therefore, the required angle is 54.75°.

The coordinates of the point that is 3 / 10 of the way from point A to point B is C(x, y) = (0.9, - 3).

How to find the coordinates of a point within a line segment

In this problem we find a line segment whose endpoints are known: A(x, y) = (- 3, - 6), B(x, y) = (10, 4), and of which we need to find a point C such that it is 3 / 10 of the way from point A to point B, whose exact location can be found by means of the line segment formula:

C(x, y) = A(x, y) + (3 / 10) · [B(x, y) - A(x, y)]

C(x, y) = (- 3, - 6) + (3 / 10) · [(10, 4) - (- 3, - 6)]

C(x, y) = (- 3, - 6) + (3 / 10) · (13, 10)

C(x, y) = (- 3, - 6) + (3.9, 3)

C(x, y) = (0.9, - 3)

5n² can be expressed as, 5n² =  3² x 5⁵ x x⁶

Given that n can be written as the product of the primes as

This expression for n is called the prime factorization of n.

We need to express 5n² as such a product of primes.

For that taking square of n, add the power 2 with the existing powers of 3,5 and x,

So, n² = ( 3 x 5² x x³)² = 3² x 5⁴ x x⁶

So 5n² = 5(3² x 5⁴ x x⁶)

The mathematical operations that would be used to determine the answer are addition and subtraction.

Addition is determining the total value or summing two or more numbers. The sign used to represent addition is +. Subtraction is the process of determining the difference between two or more numbers. The sign used to denote subtraction is -.

The first step is to add the total number of people who like a particular type of candy : 10 + 8 + 2 + 3 + 5 = 28

The second step is to subtract that number gotten in the previous step from the total number of co-workers.

Co-workers that like both chocolate and gum drops = 35 - 28 = 7

f ( x ) = 3 x ; 0 ≤ x ≤ 2

f ( x ) = 6 + 4 ( x - 2) for 2 < x ≤ 5

f ( x ) = 20 for x > 5

We are given that:

The parking garage charges $ 3 per hour if the car is parked there for less than 2 hours.

So, we get that:

Parking fees = 3 x for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2

Now, we get that, if the car is parked for more than 2 hours and less than 5 hours, then the parking fee is

6 + 4 ( x - 2) for 2 < x ≤ 5

Now, we are given that it charges a fixed fee of $ 20 if car is parked for more than 5 hours. So, the parking fee will be

20 for x > 5

So, the function becomes:

f ( x ) = 3 x ; 0 ≤ x ≤ 2

f ( x ) = 6 + 4 ( x - 2) for 2 < x ≤ 5

f ( x ) = 20 for x > 5

Therefore, we get that, the function will become:

Remy walked to a friends house, m miles away, at an average rate of 4mph. The m-mile walk home was at only 3mph. Remy spent 2 hours walking in all. Find the value of m.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = mph or miles/hour

so, when we are dealing with a distance and compare the time spent on the distance, we have to divide distance by speed

miles / miles/hour = hour

so, we have

m/4 + m/3 = 2

as the sum of the time it took to walk the distance at 4mph and the time it took to walk the distance at 3 mph is 2 hours.

now we multiply by the denominators one after the other to eliminate the fractions.

m + 4m/3 = 8

3m + 4m = 24

7m = 24

m = 24/7 = 3.428571429... miles

2. m ∠ 1 = 6°

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm confused, so I'll just solve both problems (assuming that they are the same type of angle)

1.

m Z1 = (x+84)° and m2 = 2xº.

m ∠ 1 = (x + 84)°

m ∠ 2 = 2x°

Complementary angles are equal to 90°

(x + 84) + 2x = 90

x + 84 + 2x = 90

3x + 84 = 90

      -84    -84

----------------------

3x = 6

÷3  ÷3

-----------

x = 2°

m ∠ 1 = (x + 84)°

m ∠ 1 = (2 + 84)°

m ∠ 1 = 86°

m ∠ 2 = 2x°

m ∠ 2 = 2(2)°

m ∠ 2 = 4°

2. (Problem in the picture)

m ∠ 1 = (x - 6)°

m ∠ 2 = 7x°

Complementary angles are equal to 90°

(x - 6) + 7x = 90

x - 6 + 7x = 90

8x - 6 = 90

     +6    +6

---------------------

8x = 96

÷8    ÷8

----------------

x = 12

m ∠ 1 = (x - 6)°

m ∠ 1 = (12 - 6)°

m ∠ 1 = 6°

m ∠ 2 = 7x°

m ∠ 2 = 7(12)°

m ∠ 2 = 84°
