2.4/0.3=8
0.3x8=2.4
The scale factor is 8.
Answer: point F is at <u> 0.6 </u> on the number line
=============================================================
Explanation:
The ratio 2:3 scales up to 2x:3x for some positive real number x.
This means the distance from D to F is 2x units, and the distance from F to E is 3x units. Combine those two smaller distances to get 2x+3x = 5x to represent the full distance from D to E.
D is at -3 and E is at 6. This is a distance of 9 units since |-3-6| = |-9| = 9
Set this equal to the 5x from earlier and solve
5x = 9
x = 9/5
x = 1.8
This leads to 2x = 2*1.8 = 3.6
Therefore, we'll move 3.6 units from -3 to -3+3.6 = 0.6 which is the location of point F on the number line.
Notice that from 0.6 to 6 is 5.4 units and that 3x = 3*1.8 = 5.4 matches up to help confirm the answer.
<h2>19.</h2><h3>Given</h3>
- window width and height are in proportion to building width and height
- window width and height are 11 in and 18 in, respectively
- building height is 108 ft
<h3>Find</h3>
<h3>Solution</h3>
The proportional relation can be written as
... (building width)/(building height) = (window width)/(window height)
Multiplying by (building height) gives
... (building width) = (building heigh) × (window width)/(window height)
... (building width) = 108 ft × (11 in)/(18 in)
... building width = 66 ft
<h2>21.</h2><h3>Given</h3>
- map distance = 6.75 in
- map scale = 1.5 in : 5 mi
<h3>Find</h3>
<h3>Solution</h3>
The distances are in proportion, so
... (map distance) : (actual distance) = 1.5 in : 5 mi
Multiplying by (5 mi)/(1.5 in)×(actual distance), we have
... (5 mi)/(1.5 in)×(6.75 in) = (actual distance) = 22.5 mi

Answer:
- <em>0.75</em><em> liters of 5% hydrochloric acid solution </em>
- <em>0.25</em><em> liters of 45% hydrochloric acid solution.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that, x liters of the 5% hydrochloric acid and y liters of the 45% hydrochloric acid solutions are combined.
As Rajan need total of 1 liter of solution, so
i.e
--------------------1
As Rajan needs 5% hydrochloric acid and 45% hydrochloric acid to make a 1 liter batch of 15% hydrochloric acid, hence acid content of the mixture of two acids will be same as of the final one, so

i.e
-------------2
Putting value of x from equation 1 in equation 2,





Putting the value of y in equation 1,

Therefore, Rajan must use 0.75 liters of 5% hydrochloric acid solution and 0.25 liters of 45% hydrochloric acid solution.
