The scale model of a building 3 inches tall if the building is 90 feet tall is 2:5

<h3>Scaling of measurement</h3>

Scaling is the way of enlarging or reducing the image of an object.

Given scale model of a building is 3 inches, if the building is 90feet tall, to write the scale;

Convert both measures to same units

Since 1 feet. = 12 in

90 feet = 90/12 in = 7.5 in

Take the ratio

3 : 7.5 = 30: 75

Reduce to lowest term

30: 75 = 2 : 5

Hence the scale model of a building 3 inches tall if the building is 90 feet tall is 2:5

Please help me!<br> Find WX.
Fynjy0 [20]
So WX is 7y +4 and XY is 21, and when you add those lines you get the whole thing, which is 12y so write that like an equation
12y = 7y+4+21
12y = 7y+25
5y = 25
y = 5

Answer:

Alicia

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions

<u>Alicia</u>

Distance: 5 1/2 = 11/2 = 5.5 miles

Time: 1 2/5 = 7/5 = 1.4 hours

<u>Carlos</u>

Distance: 8 1/8 = 65/8 = 8.125 miles

Time: 2 1/2 = 5/2 = 2.5 hours

<u>Henry</u>

Distance: 3 2/3 = 11/3 = 3.6 reoccuring miles

Time: 1 1/10 = 11/10 = 1.1 hours

<u>Zoe</u>

Distance: 4 2/3 = 14/3 = 4.6 reoccuring miles

Time: 1 3/10 = 13/10 = 1.3 hours

After that, divide the distance by the time

Alicia = 5.5 / 1.4 = 3.93 ( 3 s.f )

Carlos = 8.125 / 2.5 = 3.25

Henry = 3.6 re / 1.1 = 3.3 reoccuring

Zoe = 4.6 / 1.3 = 3.54 ( 3 s.f )

Looking at these answers, we determine which rate is the greatest

Alicia = 3.93

Carlos = 3.25

Henry = 3.3 re

Zoe = 3.54

Alicia hiked the highest rate.
