1 foot = 12 inches
42 feet = (42 x 12) = 504

The factor of (6 inches / 42 feet) is (6 inches / 504 inches) = 1 / 84 .

The scale factor is not in inches.  It's a factor, and has no units.
A 1-ft model would represent a real 84 feet.
A 1-meter model would represent a real 84 meters.
A 1-yard model would represent a real 84 yards.

Which classification describes the following system of equations? inconsistent and dependent consistent and dependent consistent
sveta [45]

The system of equations is consistent and independent and the solutions are x = 4, y = 5, and z = -1 option third is correct.

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

We have three linear equations in three variables:

x - y - z = 0 ..(1)

2x - y + 2z = 1 ..(2)

x - y + z = -2 ..(3)

From the equation (1):

\rm x=y+z

Plug this value in the equation (2) and (3):

\rm 2\left(y+z\right)-y+2z=1\\\\ y+z-y+z=-2

After solving we get:

z = -1

y = 5

Plug the above two values in equation (1) we get:

x = 4

Thus, the system of equations is consistent and independent and the solutions are x = 4, y = 5, and z = -1 option third is correct.

What should be added to both sides of the equation below to complete the square?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x = 8

Coefficient of the x term: 6

Divide it in half: 3

Square it: 3²

Add 3² to both sides of the equation to complete the square and keep the equation balanced:

x² + 6x + 3² = 8 + 3²

(x+3)² = 17

Solve the equation 5x-1=14​
Tanya [424]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

we move the 1 to the other side so

it goes from -1 to a positive 1 then add it to the 14 then you will have

5x=15

to remove the x divided 5 on both sides and you get x=3
