Answer:
<em>(a) 3 inches
</em>
<em>(b) Her scale model drawing WILL fit on the piece of paper 8.5 by 7 inches</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Scaling
</u>
We use scales to represent realities in reduced spaces. In the case of lengths or surfaces, the scale allows us to draw the shapes in normal sheets of paper.
(a)
Kelly's rock garden has a length of 6 feet. She uses a 1 inch:2 feet scale. this means that the model length is
6 feet*1 inch/2 feet = 3 inches
(b)
The width of the model is 5 inches, keeping the same scale it means the real length is
5 inches * 2 feet / 1 inch = 10 feet
The model will have 3 inches by 5 inches, it perfectly fits on any regular piece of paper
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x-9
divide the equation by -1 so that the -1's are taken from -3x and -9. so the -1 goes on the outside of 3x+9
-1(3x+9)
then divide the equation by 3 since 3x and 9 is divisible by 3.
(-1)(3)(3/3x+9/3)
-3(x+3)
Now we can expand again to check the problem
-3 times x=-3x
-3 times 3=-9
and add
-3x-9
Hope that helps :)
121 x 12 = 1452 so over 1500 is not a correct estimate. Less than 1500 is the right estimate
