You just put the scale of one building on one side and the scale of the similar building on other side, with width and length written in same place (denominator or numerator). With x for the part that you dont know

Length of one building / width of one building = length of other building / width of other building

12 / 9 = 100 / x

Solve for x, by cross-multiplying

12 * x = 100 * 9
12x = 900
X = 900/12
X = 75 ft

The scale of a map is 1:10000.Work out the distance between two banks on the map if the real distance is 600meters.​
sveta [45]

Answer:

6 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale of a map is 1:10000

The real distance between two banks is 600 meters.

We are to find the distance between the two banks on the map.

This scale means that for every 1 meter on the map there are 10,000 meters on the real world.

So 600 meters on the real world would be represented by;

Cross-multiplying gives:

\frac{600}{10000}  * 100 = 6 meters.

The equation 2x + 4k − 9 = kx − k + 1 is really a family of equations, because for each value of k, we get a different equation
Olegator [25]
You haven't shared "the given value of x," or, if you have, you haven't drawn attention to it.

Just suppose we were to choose x = 4 as a possible solution and then try to find a value of the parameter k that would make x = 4 an actual solution.

2(4) + 4k - 9 = (4)(4) - (4) + 1

Then 8 + 4k - 9 = 16 - 4 + 1, or       4k - 1 = 13.  Then 4k = 14, and k = 14/4, or (after reduction)  k = 7/2   

If the parameter k equals 7/2, then x = 4 is a solution to the given equation.

To check this out further, start with the proposed solution x = 5 and find k.
