What seems to be the issue?
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, we know the scale is 1 1/2 inches to 4 feet and that one side length of the scaled drawing sqaure is 3 inches, so . . .
3/1 1/2 (3 divided by one and one-half)
to get: 2
Then multiply it by the scale factor of 4
2*4= 8
But remeber, this is only ONE side of the garden, so multiply this by 4
8*4=32
Next we want to see the number of links it takes to build the garden
Since one link measures 2 2/3 feet you have to divide
32/ 2 2/3 (32 divided by two and two-thirds)
to get an answer of : 12 links
We need to find the midpoint. Let's call the midpoint M where M = (x,y). For now x and y are unknown
To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, we add up 5 and -1 (which are the x coordinates of E and F respectively) and divide by 2
So 5+(-1) = 5-1 = 4 which divided over 2 is 4/2 = 2
The x coordinate of the midpoint is x = 2
Similarly, the y coordinate of M is y = (-2+3)/2 = 1/2 = 0.5
So the midpoint M is (x,y) = (2, 0.5)
One property of M is that EM = MF. Another property is that EM+MF = EF
The volume of a rectangle prism is V=whl where w is the width, h is the height, and l is the length. In this case, V=17*15*17, or 4335 cubic inches.
