You have two given data available here: the actual height of the Empire State Building measuring 1,450 feet, and the height of the block measuring 2 feet. To find how many blocks stacked together would make up 1,450 feet, just divide 1,450 by 2.
Number of blocks=1,450 feet * (1 block/2 feet)
Number of blocks = 725 blocks
Therefore, you would use a model requiring 725 blocks. The scale factor for the model is 1 block per two feet.
Answer:
1) The solution of the system is

2) The solution of the system is

Step-by-step explanation:
1) To solve the system of equations

using the row reduction method you must:
Step 1: Write the augmented matrix of the system

Find the y-intercept then graph it.
which is :-
y=-2/3x+7/3
Answer:
-3.72 is rational because it ends at the hundredths place
Step-by-step explanation:
Rational. A rational number either terminates at a point or repeats in a pattern forever.
Answer:
D) -9 + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The Additive Inverse Property is where the sum of any number and its inverse (opposite) is zero. In this case, we need to have an expression that equals zero, and two numbers that are opposite of each other. This would be D) -9 + 9 because these two numbers are inverses of each other, and the expression equals 0.
