In this problem, the reference of the scale is referring to feet. Firstly, convert 72 inches to feet so that you can properly make the proportion.

72 inches = 6 feet

With the scale of 2 inches per 3 feet, we can set up an easy proportion to see how wide the door will be on the drawing.

3 feet 6 feet
——— = ————
2 inc. ‘x’ inc.

3x=12
X=4 inches

Solving the proportion by cross-multiplication reveals that the scale drawing of the patio door would be 4 inches wide.

The tables below show two functions. For each set of data:
slamgirl [31]
The first table, representing <em>f</em>(<em>x</em>), is linear.  The data have a constant rate of change or slope:
<em />(between the first two points):  <em>m</em> = (<em>y</em>₂ - <em /><em>y</em>₁)/(<em>x</em>₂ - <em>x</em>₁) = (22-18)/(-1--2) = 4/(-1+2) = 4/1 = 4.  The rate of change  between any two points is the same:
(between the last two points):<em>  m</em> = (34-30)/(2-1) = 4/1 = 4.

The second table, representing <em>g</em>(<em>x</em>), is exponential.  The data points are multiplied by the same constant between successive points.  2*2 = 4; 4*2= 8; 8*2 = 16, etc.

Circumference of a circle - derivation

This page describes how to derive the formula for the circumference of a circle.

Recall that the definition of pi (π) is the circumference c of any circle divided by its diameter d. Put as an equation, pi is defined as

π

=

c

d

Rearranging this to solve for c we get

c

=

π

d

The diameter of a circle is twice its radius, so substituting 2r for d

c

=

2

π

r

If you know the area

Recall that the area of a circle is given by

area

=

π

r

2

Solving this for r

r

2

=

a

π

So

r

=

√

a

π

The circumference c of a circle is

c

=

2

π

r

victor has the map scale missing.he knows the distance from the lake to the youth center is 8 miles. on the map they are 2in. ap
kupik [55]
The <u>correct scale</u> is 1 in = 4 mi.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The scale tells us what a given measurement on the map equals in real-life distance.  

The measurement on the map that we have is 2 inches, and it equals 8 miles:

2 in = 8 mi

This can also be written as 2/8.  This fraction can be simplified, since both 2 and 8 are divisible by 2; it will simplify to 1/4.  This is the same as 
1 in = 4 mi.
