So the scale is 3/4 cm for every 6 meters

So if you have 8 cm, we want to find the dimension of the actual wall

convert cm to meters

0.75 cm = 0.0075 meters

8 cm = 0.08 meters

$\frac{0.0075}{6} = \frac{0.08}{x}$

Cross Multiply

0.0075x = 0.48

x = 64 meters

The sum of 6 consecutive even numbers is 270.What is the second number in this sequence?

Finger [1]

Answer: 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the six consecutive even numbers be x , x+2 , x+4 ,x+6 ,x+8 ,x+10.

Then According to the question , we have

$x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)+(x+8)+(x+10)=270\\\\\Rightarrow\ x+x+2+x+4+x+6+x+8+x+10=270\\\\\Rightarrow\6x+30=270\\\\\Rightarrow\ 6x=270-30\\\\\Rightarrow\ 6x=240\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=40$

Now, the second number from the above six consecutive even numbers is x+2.

Substitute the value of x in it, we get

The second number in this sequence = $x+2=40+2=42$
