Hi there!

To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion.

18 cm / 4 cm = 27 ft / x ft

For this problem, we need to solve for x in the proportion.
We can simplify the proportion by cross multiplying, or multiplying the numerator of the first fraction with the denominator of the second and vice versa.

18x = 4 × 27
18x = 108

Now, we divide both sides by 18 to find x.

108 ÷ 18 = 6

So, the answer is c, 6 feet.

Hope this helps!

Correct Answer: 
C option: 6 feet

Solution:
Since <span>Yolanda wants to keep the pool in proportion to the model, the ratio of diameter to depth of model and the pool will be same.

Let the depth of pool is x feet. So we can write:

Ratio of Diameter to Depth of Model = Ratio of Diameter to Depth of pool
</span>18:4=27:x \\  \\ &#10; \frac{18}{4} = \frac{27}{x} \\  \\ &#10;x=27* \frac{4}{18}  \\  \\ &#10;x=6
<span>
This means the depth of pool should be 6 feet if </span><span>Yolanda wants to keep the pool in proportion to the model.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

The method to calculate car value use :

P(x)= car price ( 1 - rate percentage )^years

P(x)= 18,995 ( 1 - 0.18 )^6

= 5774.60672

Round to nearest hundreds:

= 5774.61
