Answer:

40\ bottle\ caps

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale is \frac{2.4}{1}\ \frac{cm}{ft}

That means

2.4 cm in the model represent 1 foot in the real

In this problem

The restaurant is 20 feet tall

Find the height of the model

Multiply the actual height of the restaurant by the scale 2.4

20\ ft=20(2.4)=48\ cm

A bottle cap is 1.2 cm tall

To find out the number of bottle caps divide the height of the model by 1.2

\frac{48}{1.2}= 40\ bottle\ caps

The y intercept is 3

You can also say that the y intercept is at (0,3) which is a more detailed answer. However saying "y intercept is 3" is sufficient enough because the x coordinate of the y intercept is always x = 0.

The y intercept is the location where the graph crosses or touches the y axis. This is at the halfway point between the 2 and 4, so (2+4)/2 = 6/2 = 3

Pennsylvania has a sales tax of 6%. The city of Philadelphia adds an extra local sales tax of 2%. Both taxes apply to the origin
jonny [76]

Answer:

For the regular tax in Pennsylvania, it would be 12 cents or $0.12. For Philadelphia, it would be 4 cents or $0.04. I got these two amounts by multiplying 2 times 6 or 2 percent, aka 0.06 and 0.02. If you added the two together, you would get, $0.16 or 16 cents. You would then add that to the two dollars and end up with $2.16 or two dollars and sixteen cents. I hope this helps.

lara [203]
X + (2 + x) + (4 + x) = 60

3x + 6 = 60 

3x = 54
 
x = 18
x + 2 = 20
x + 4 = 22

Their ages are 18, 20, 22

Se requiere dos personas para construir una barda de 20 m de largo y 1.5 m de alto en dos días ¿cuántas personas se necesitan pa
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Definamos R como la "velocidad" a la que una persona puede construir la barda dada.

Supongamos que la persona necesita un tiempo T para construir la barda, entonces tenemos la relación:

R*T = 1 barda.

Si dos personas trabajan juntas la velocidad de trabajo va a ser (R + R), y sabemos que ellos pueden completar el trabajo en 2 días, entonces:

(R + R)*2 días = 1 barda

(2*R)*2 días = 1 barda

(2*R) = (1/2) barda por día

R = (1/2)*(1/2) barda por día = (1/4) barda por día.

Esto significa que una persona puede completar un cuarto de la barda en un día de trabajo.

Ahora queremos saber cuantas personas se necesitan para construir una barda en solo medio día, entonces debemos resolver:

(N*R)*0.5 días = 1 barda

Donde N es el número de personas que queremos obtener.

(N* (1/4) barda por día)*0.5 días = 1 barda

N*(1/4) barda por día = (1/0.5) bardas por día = 2 bardas por día

N = 2/(1/4) = 2*4 = 8

N = 8

Se necesitan 8 personas para construir una barda en medio día.
