For every 1ft in the original, the model used 2in

1ft:2in

There are 12inches in a foot, so we could also write the ratio as

12in:2in

12/2=6 So the model is 6X smaller than the original

The length of the original was 9ft

L=9ft

The width of the original was 4ft

W=4ft

The height of the original is 6ft

H=6ft

The volume of the original is:
V=L*W*H
V=9*6*4=216ft³ 



Now lets find the dimensions of the model...

If the length of the original was 9 feet we just divide that number by 6 to find the length of the model.

9/6= 1 1/3 ft

The length of the model is 1 1/3ft or 16in

If the width of the original was 4 feet we just divide that number by 6 to find the width of the model.

4/6= 2/3 ft

The width of the model is 2/3ft or 8in

If the height of the original was 6 feet we just divide that number by 6 to find the height of the model.

6/6=1ft

The height of the model is 1ft or 12 inches

The volume of the model is...

V=l*w*h=16in*8in*12in=1536in³

1 tank of propane holds 5 gallons and will last 12 hours. how many gallons of propane is needed for 240 hours.
MAVERICK [17]

5 gallons        x gallons

------------- = ----------------

12 hours       240 hours


using cross products

5 * 240 = 12 * x

1200 = 12 x

divide each side by 12

1200/12 = 12x/12

100 =x

You will need 100 gallons

When you have the number 81 as your median and you have to find the missing number out of the following 82,87,77,70,80,88
Natali5045456 [20]
Uh, so, you're median is 81 already.

Since the middle two numbers are 82 and 80, you have to add them together and then divide by 2. 

However, if you're trying to add a number in, adding 81 as it is would work as well.

Hope this helps!

∠A=5x−18. ∠B=3x+42∘ solve for x and then find the measure of ∠A
KatRina [158]

Answer:

x = 30 ∠A = 132 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equations equal to each other to solve for x

5x - 18 = 3x + 42

-3x        - 3x               Subtract 3x from both sides

2x - 18 = 42

    + 18  + 18              Add 18 to both sides

2x = 60                     Divide both sides by 2

x = 30

Now plug this into the equation for angle A

∠A = 5(30) − 18        Multiply

∠A = 150 - 18           Subtract

∠A = 132 degrees
