Answer:

area is length * width, so

5x10^5 * 4x10^4

multiplication is commutative, so that's

5*4 * 10^5*10^4

= 20 * 10^9

= 2*10^10 m^2

if the powers stuff is confusing, it's just shorthand for multiplication

10^5*10^4 = (10*10*10*10*10)*(10*10*10*10) = 10^9

just as multiplication is shorthand for addition

5*4 = 5+5+5+5

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle?<br> 7 ft<br> 4 ft
stepladder [879]

Answer:

√65 ft = 8.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using Pythagoras Theorem

c² = a² + b²

c = √a² + b²

Where c = Length of the Hypotenuse

a = 4ft , b = 7ft

Hence

c = √4² + 7²

c = √16 + 49

c = √(65)

c = 8.0622577483 ft

Approximately = 8.1 ft

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is √65 ft = 8.1 ft

Kaitlyn creates an architectural blueprint of a rectangular dining room.The area of the actual dining room is 900 times as large
8090 [49]
We need to make a scale between blueprint and actual size. The trick in this question is to understand that the scale for the areas and the scale for the lengths are different.
Scale for area is given in the question as
1 unit on blueprint = 900 units in actual.
As the dining room is given to be rectangular we can find the scale for lengths by taking square root of scale for area.

√1 unit on blueprint = √900 units in actual
Therefore, scale for length= 1:30

Thus, by using the scale we can calculate actual length corresponding to 4 inches on blueprint by multiplying 4 with scale
4 inches×1/30=120inches

Answer = 120 inches
