A photograph was enlarged to a width of 15 inches. If the scale factor was 3 /2 , what was the width of the original photograph?

1 answer:

6 0

If the width is 15, and the scale factor from width to length is 3:2, then you will have to divide 15 by 3 to get your original width.
15/3 = 5.
5 is your original width.

Which of the following systems of inequalities represents the graph?

mixer [17]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

If a line passes through two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ , then the equation of line is

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

From the below figure it is clear that the a solid line passes through the points (-2,0) and (0,4). So, the equation of related line is

$y-0=\frac{4-0}{0-(-2)}(x-(-2))$

$y=2(x+2)$

$y=2x+4$

$-2x+y=4$

All area above the solid line is shaded. It means the sign of inequality is ≥.

$-2x+y\geq 4$

From the below figure it is clear that the a dashed line passes through the points (2,0) and (0,2). So, the equation of related line is

$y-0=\frac{2-0}{0-(2)}(x-(2))$

$y=-1(x-2)$

$y=-x+2$

$x+y=2$

All area below the dashed line is shaded. It means the sign of inequality is <.

$x+y$

System of inequality is

$-2x+y\geq 4$

$x+y$

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Since area is length times width, it would be the factors of the equation for the area.

You can set up rations to do this.
So we know that they accept 2:5.
So It would be 180: 450.
