Elenas bed measures 3‘ x 6‘ on the scale drawing what are the actual measurements of her bed

1 answer:

4 0

Using proportions, supposing a scale of 1 inch = 3 feet, the actual measurements of her bed are given by: 9 ft x 18 ft.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and equations can be built to find the desired measures in the problem using basic arithmetic operations such as multiplication or division, from the relations built in the problem.

One example of application of proportions is for scale problems, as the actual scale and the drawing length are compared to find the actual length of the object drawn.

In the context of this problem, the scale is given by:

1 inch = 3 feet.

The drawn length of the bed is given by:

3 inches x 6 inches.

Hence the actual length is given by:

9 feet x 18 feet.

As:

3 x 3 = 9.

6 x 3 = 18.

<h3>What is the missing information?</h3>

The scale of the drawing is missing, hence we are going to suppose that it is 1 inch = 3 feet.

Katie invests $5,000 in an account earning 4% interest, compounded annually for 5 years. Two years after Katie's initial investm

Lyrx [107]

Emily earned $166 more in her account than Katie.

We use the compound interest formula for both of these:

$A=p(1+r)^t$

For Katie's deposit:
$A=5000(1+0.04)^5=5000(1.04)^5 = 6083.26$

This gives Katie 6083.26-5000 = 1083.26 in interest (1083, to the nearest dollar).

For Emily's deposit:
$A=10000(1+0.04)^3=10000(1.04)^3=11248.64$

This means she earned 11248.64-10000=1248.64 in interest (1249, to the nearest dollar).

The difference in interest is given by 1249-1083=166

Noah says that 9x − 2x + 4x is equivalent to 3x because the subtraction sign tells us to subtract everything that comes after 9x

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Noah's claim is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

B O D M A S - Brackets, Over, Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction, this means that you must do the addition first.

2x+ 4x = 6x

9x - 6x = 3x

Noah is correct as the - sign tells us that you have to subtract everything after the 9x

Hope this is ok and helps a little bit

What is the equation of the line that passes through (4, -1)

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

answer: y = -5 + 19

We can use the point-slope formula to find an equation to solve this problem. The point-slope formula states: (y−y1)=m(x−x1)

Where m is the slope and (x1y1) is a point the line passes through.

Susbtituting the slope and values from the point from the problem gives:

(y−−1)=−5(x−4)

(y+1)=−5(x−4)

We can also solve this for the slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept value.

Substitute the slope from the problem for m and the values of the point from the problem for x and y and solve for b:

−1=(−5⋅4)+b

−1=−20+b

20−1=20−20+b

19=0+b

19=b

We can substitute for m and b in the formula to find the equation:

y=−5x+19
