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.

?<br> For which value of x is the inequality 45 - 4x &lt; 14 true?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

7.75

Step-by-step explanation:

You group like terms from the inequality above ie by making the x value stands alone and you can only do this by sending 14 to the left side of the inequality and 4x to the right side. This becomes 45-14 < 4x and that gives you 31 < 4x. Then you divide both side by the number attached to the variable 'x' ie 4. So 31/4 < 4x/4 making x > 31/4 which is 7.75
