Answer:

21.25ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for this, all you need to do is find a ratio proportional to the given. The given shows the following ratios:

$\dfrac{2in}{5ft}=\dfrac{8.5in}{x}$

All you need to do is solve for x. You can do this by first cross multiplying:

$\dfrac{2in}{5ft}=\dfrac{8.5in}{x}\\\\2in(x)=8.5in(5ft)\\\\2xin=42.5in/ft\\\\Divide\;both\;sides\;by\;2in\\\\\dfrac{2xin}{2in}=\dfrac{42.5in.ft}{2in}\\\\x=21.25ft$

10) 9 people can paint a bridge in 5 hours,

ale4655 [162]

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of people to paint the bridge is inversely proportional to the number of hours it takes.

(If there are more people, it will take less time etc.)

9 people can paint the bridge in 5 hours.

=> 2 people can paint the bridge in 5 * (9/2) = 22.5 hours.

Option C: $5 x(4 x+7)(3 x+2)$ is the possible expressions for length, width and height of the prism.

Explanation:

The volume of the rectangular prism is $60 x^{3}+145 x^{2}+70 x$

To determine the length, width and height of the rectangular prism, let us factor the expression.

Thus, factoring 5x from the expression, we have,

$5 x\left(12 x^{2}+29 x+14\right)$

Let us break the expression $12 x^{2}+29 x+14$ into two groups, we get,

$5x[\left(12 x^{2}+8 x\right)+(21 x+14)]$

Factoring 4x from the term $12 x^{2}+8 x$ , we get,

$5x[4 x(3 x+2)+(21x+14)]$

Similarly, factoring 7x from the term $21 x+14$ , we get,

$5x[4 x(3 x+2)+7(3x+2)]$

Now, let us factor out $3x+2$ , we get,

$5 x(4 x+7)(3 x+2)$

Hence, the possible expressions for length, width and height of the prism is $5 x(4 x+7)(3 x+2)$

Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.
