It is nonsense. Penny claims she is going to to make it LARGER than life size. Therefore the fraction would have to be improper. The fraction stated would be making something SMALLER than life size.

It would be nonsense, as if the beetle were at normal size, then it would be considered 1/1 as a scale. If you wanted to increase it, you would increase the numerator.

If the temperature dropped by 7.f each hour from 5:00 am to 9:00 am. What was the beginning temperature at 5:00 am if the temper
arlik [135]

If the temperature dropped by 7.f each hour from 5:00 am to 9:00 am.  the beginning temperature at 5:00 am if the temperature at 9:00 am was -10.f is 18.f.

<h3>Beginning temperature</h3>

Dropped in temperature=7.t

Number of hours= 5:00 am to 9:00 am=4 hours

Temperature at 9:00 am=-10.f

Hence:

Beginning temperature can be calculated as:

Beginning temperature=(4× 7) + (-10)

Beginning temperature=28 + (-10)

Beginning temperature= 18.f

Check:

Since  temperature dropped by 7.f each hour from 5:00 am to 9:00 am

which implies that temperature  7.f dropped for 4 hours.

Hence:

18-7-7-7-7=-10.f

Therefore If the temperature dropped by 7.f each hour from 5:00 am to 9:00 am.  the beginning temperature at 5:00 am if the temperature at 9:00 am was -10.f is 18.f.
