Suppose you receive a postcard from a good friend with a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. The postcard is 3.5

inches high and 5.5 inches wide. The fine print on the postcard states that the scale of the picture is 1:19,600. Based on the scale, what's the actual length of the Golden Gate Bridge?

Answer:

Actual length of the Bridge = 8983.33 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale is 1 unit = 19,600.

Height of the postcard is 3.5 inches.

So, original height of the bridge = 3.5 × 19,600 = 68,600 inches

= 5716.67 feet

Width of the postcard is 5.5 inches.

So, original width of the bridge = 5.5 × 19,600 = 107,800 inches

= 8983.33 feet

If you triple 4 and subtract to each day how many days until you have zero
Mrrafil [7]
Do you mean subtract two each day? If so...
4x3=12 and 12 divided by 2 is 6 so it would take six days to reach zero
or
you could manually subtract two from 6 each days as in 12-2=10 (1 day), 10-2=8 (2 days), and so on...

The length of the rectangle is 7/(x-4) feet, while its width is 5/x feet. Find its perimeter. Please help asap!!!!! :(
damaskus [11]

The perimeter would be (24x - 40)/(x^2 - 4x).

In order to find this, first double the length and width as you would to find any perimeter.

7/(x - 4) * 2 = 14/(x - 4)

5/x * 2 = 10/x

Now to add those together, we need to give them common denominators. In order to do that with the first one, we need to multiply by x/x

14/(x - 14) * x/x = 14x/(x^2 - 14x)

Then we can do the same with the second part by multiplying by (x - 4)/(x - 4)

10/x * (x - 4)/(x - 4) = (10x - 40)/(x^2 - 14x)

Now we can add the two together

14x/(x^2 - 14x) + (10x - 40)/(x^2 - 14x) = (24x - 40)/(x^2 - 14x)
