Answer:

<em>(a) 3 inches </em>

<em>(b) Her scale model drawing WILL fit on the piece of paper 8.5 by 7 inches</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling </u>

We use scales to represent realities in reduced spaces. In the case of lengths or surfaces, the scale allows us to draw the shapes in normal sheets of paper.  

(a)

Kelly's rock garden has a length of 6 feet. She uses a 1 inch:2 feet scale. this means that the model length is

6 feet*1 inch/2 feet = 3 inches

(b)

The width of the model is 5 inches, keeping the same scale it means the real length is

5 inches * 2 feet / 1 inch = 10 feet

The model will have 3 inches by 5 inches, it perfectly fits on any regular piece of paper

Find the value of each variable<br> x = <br> y=
Karolina [17]

Answer:

x=9

y=9\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a special type of triangle known as a 45-45-90 triangle.

The ratio for the sides of this triangle are x:x:x\sqrt{2}

Meaning that the two sides other than the hypotenuse are equal, so in this triangle x=9 because it is not a hypotenuse.

The hypotenuse, however, is the value of one side multiplied by \sqrt{2}.

In this case it is 9, so 9*\sqrt{2} = 9\sqrt{2}

Solve (x – 3)2 = 49. Select the values of x. –46 -4 10 52
sergiy2304 [10]

After using the algebraic equation, the required value of x = 55/2.

WHAT IS ALGEBRIC EQUATION?
A mathematical statement wherein two expressions have been set equal to one another is known as an algebraic equation. A variable, coefficients, and constants make up an algebraic equation in most cases. Equations, or the equal sign, simply indicate equality. Equating each quantity with another is what equations are all about. Equations act as a scale of balance. If you've ever seen a balance scale, users know that for the scale to be deemed "balanced," an equal amount of weight must be applied to each side. The scale will tip to one side if we only add weight to one side, and the two sides will no longer be equally weighted.

(x-3)2 = 49

= x-3 = 49/2

= x = (49/2) + 3

= x = 55/2

So, the required value of x = 55/2.

Find the area of the square
butalik [34]

Answer:

13 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

one side of the square =

AD^{2} = 2^{2} +3^{2}

AD^{2} =13

AD = \sqrt{13}

So area of square = Length * Length

= \sqrt{13}*

= 13
