A scale drawing of a rectangle is made by using a scale factor of StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction. The original and the scale

drawing are shown below. A rectangle has a length of 18 inches and width of 12 inches. [Not drawn to scale] Which method can be used to find the dimensions of the original rectangle? 18 minus StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 17 and StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction inches and 12 minus StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 11 and StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction inches StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction divided by 18 = StartFraction 5 over 144 EndFraction inches and StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction divided by 12 = StartFraction 5 over 96 EndFraction inches 18 times StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 11 and one-fourth inches and 12 times StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 7 and one-half inches 18 divided by StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 28 and four-fifths inches and 12 divided by StartFraction 5 over 8 EndFraction = 19 and one-fifth inches

given that the scale factor is

\frac{5}{8}

multiply the dimensions of original rectangle by 5/8 to obtain the dimensions of the scale drawing.

the following method is useful to find the dimensions of the original rectangle.

length of the original rectangle

\frac{8}{5}  \times 18 = 28.8 \: inches

width of the original rectangle\frac{8}{5}  \times 12 = 19.2 \: inches

Question 1 of
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

5L/2 < 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's get started!

Let :

⇒ Length = L

⇒ Width = L/4

It mentions the perimeter must be less than 100 inches.

Perimeter Formula :

<u><em>Perimeter (Rectangle) = 2(Length + Width)</em></u>

Then, the inequality formed will be :

⇒ 2 (L + L/4) < 100

⇒ 2 (5L/4) < 100

⇒ 10L/4 < 100

⇒ 5L/2 < 100
