I'm not sure if that's exactly what you mean, but if the scale of the drawing is 10cm:1mm, it means that 10cm of the drawing represents 1mm of the actual object. So the scale drawing is bigger than the object.

The correct answer is:

The scale drawing is larger.

Explanation:

A scale for a scale drawing is written as a ratio in the form
(scale size):(actual size).

For example, on a map you may have a scale that says 1 in: 2 mi. This means that 1 inch on the scale is equal to 2 miles on the map.

The scale for this problem is 10 cm: 1 mm. This means that 10 cm on the scale drawing represents 1 mm on the actual object.

10 cm is larger than 1 mm, so the scale drawing is larger.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the amount of the sales tax:

46 x 0.06 = 2.76

Add the sales tax to the items total:

46 + 2.76 = 48.76

50 > 48.76

Since $48.76 is less than $50 he has enough money

A fence on a hill uses vertical posts L and M to hold parallel rails N and P. If m∠1 = 115, then what is the measure of ∠16?

kiruha [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

A fence on a hill uses vertical posts L and M to hold parallel rails N and P

The diagram is attached below

Here lines N and P are parallel lines

Transversal line for parallel lines N and P is line L

Calculation:

angle 1 and angle 16 are consecutive exterior angles

If parallel lines are cut by a transversal then consecutive exterior angles are supplementary

So measurement of angle 16 = 65 degrees

For the end-of-year party, Mt.Rise Middle School ordered 112 pizzas. There were eight fewer veggie pizzas than there were pepper

rodikova [14]

Let the number of pepperoni pizzas be x
pepperoni = x
veggie = x - 8 [There were eight fewer veggie than pepperoni]
combo = 3x [There were three times as many combo as pepperoni]

Given that the total Pizza: 112
x + x - 8 + 3x = 112
5x - 8 = 112
5x = 112 + 8
5x = 120
x = 24

x= 24
x - 8 = 16
3x = 72

So there were 24 pepperoni pizza, 16 veggie pizza and 72 combo pizza
