3 in = (3 in)/(1/4 in)
       = (3)(4)
       = 12 ft

3 3/4 in = (3 3/4 in)/(1/4 in)
             = (15/4 in)(1/4 in)
             = (15)(1)
             = 15 ft

Therefore, the actual size of the room is 12 ft x 15 ft = 180 square ft

I think you can handle the reasoning. :D

Find the area of the following shape.
ad-work [718]

Answer:

57 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the triangle on the left

ABC

It has a base AC which is  9 units and a height of 3 units

A = 1/2 bh = 1/2 ( 9) *3 = 27/2 = 13.5

Then find the area of the triangle on the right

DE

It has a base AC which is  6 units and a height of 1 units

A = 1/2 bh = 1/2 ( 6) *1  = 3

Then find the area of the triangle on the top

It has a base AC which is  3 units and a height of 3 units

A = 1/2 bh = 1/2 ( 3) *3  = 9/2 = 4.5

Then find the area of the rectangular region

A = lw = 6*6 = 36

Add them together

13.5+3+4.5+36 =57 units^2

Joseph has a job walking dogs and gets paid per dog. He needs to walk 45 dogs to earn enough money to pay for his soccer team fe
rusak2 [61]

Using proportions, it is found that it will take him 22.5 hours to walk the 45 dogs.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

He walks 3 dogs in 1 hour and 30 minutes, we means that the time in hours it takes for him to walk a dog is:

t = 1.5/3 = 0.5 hours.

Hence the time it will take him to walk 45 dogs is given by:

45 x 0.5 = 22.5 hours.

Help....!! I need to solve this simultaneous equation y=x-2 and y=3x+5 With working out if possible please....
Blababa [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Y= x - 2. Y = 3x + 5

Putting value of y

x - 2 = 3x + 5

-2 - 5 = 3x - x

-7 = 2x

-7/2 = x

Putting value of x

Y = 3(-7/2) + 5

Y = - 10.5 + 5

Y = - 5.5
