The answer is 16 cm (or 0.16 m).
The scale is the ratio of the model to the real thing.
So, in the scale 1:50, the model is 1, while the real thing is 50.
Now, just make a proportion:
the model : the real thing = the model dimension : the real thing dimension
1 : 50 = x : 8m
From here:
x = 8m * 1 / 50 = 0.16 m = 0.16 * 100 cm = 16 cm.
Answer:
The student incorrectly used the Distributive property!
Step-by-step explanation:
The Distributive property says a(b+c)=ab+ac
In this problem the answer SHOULD be 3n-15, however the <u>student forgot to distribute the 3 to the -5</u>!
On a right triangle, to find one missing side you can use this equation
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a and b are the sides next to the right angle, and c is the hypotenuse (side not connected to right angle).
You first need to find the length of the dotted line before finding x. This is because to be able to use the above formula, you have to know the length of two out of three of the sides.
To solve the length of the dotted line, note that it also makes a triangle with the 5 unit line and the 5 √5 unit line. You can plug these numbers into the formula.
(5)^2+b^2=(5 √5)^2
25+b^2=125
b^2=100
b=10
Now that you know the length of the dotted line is 10 units, you can now solve for x
(20)^2+(10)^2=x^2
400+100=x^2
500=x^2
x= √500, which equals 22.361
Hi there! The answer is n = 10.
As you see at the powers of x, we need to add the exponents of the power we when multiply them.
The powers of y work the same way.
Hence, n = 10, since
