Since 12 inches is 1 foot, 8 inches must be 96 inches (8 x 12)

the ratio is 3:96.
Oh wait, it can be divided once more by 3.
Therefore, the (final) answer for the scale of the drawing is 1:32

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4y = 1 --> (1)

5x - 20y = 4 --> (2)

y = (¼)x - ¼ --> (1)

y = (¼)x - ⅕ --> (2)

The first term of an arithmetic sequence is 14. The 25th term is 206. What is the common difference of the arithmetic sequence?
larisa [96]

an = a1+ d(n-1)

a1 =14

an=206  when n=25

206 = 14 + d (25-1)

206 = 14 + d * 24

subtract 14 from each side

192 = 24d

divide by 24 on each side

d=8

The common difference is 8

How do you use the order of operations to evaluate expressions with exponents?
IgorLugansk [536]
Using BEDMAS, it would be brackets first, so anything Inside a set of brackets would be solved first, and would follow the same rule. Once the brackets have been solved, next would be the exponents. Since your brackets have been solved you can expand with the exponents. After exponents, would be anything that has to be divided or multiplied. These two operations are interchangeable based on what is more convenient or beneficial to do first. And lastly, addition and subtraction, which once again are interchangeable operations
