Using how tall it is over how wide
=>tall/wide
The model 15in/1.5in
The actual x/55ft

Convert everything into the same units so 55ft to inches
There are 12in in 1ft
55ft * 12in/1ft
The ft cross out leaving in
55*12in= 660 in

So
15in/1.5in = x/660in
Now solve for x my multiplying both side by 660in
660in *15in/1.5in=x
x= 6600in tall

How do I Simplify i^54
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

i^{54}=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, recall the 4 basic imaginary exponents:

i^1=i \text{, }i^2=-1\text{, }i^3=-1\text{ and } i^4=1

So, we want to find:

i^{54}

This is the same as:

=i^{52}\cdot i^2

52 is 4 times 13. Thus:

=(i^4)^{13}\cdot i^2

Since we know that i to the fourth is 1:

=(1)^{13}\cdot i^2

Simplify:

=i^2

And this equals:

=-1

So:

i^{54}=-1

D=9.6mm<br>calculate the circumference ​
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

30.14

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The formula for cirumference is 2(pi)r
  • If the diameter equals 9.6 then the radius is 4.8
  • 4.8 times 2 equals 9.6
  • 9.6 times 3.14(pi) equals 30.144 which could be rounded to 30.14

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

1/18 (5.5%)

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a 1/3 chance to get red the first time and a 1/6 to get blue the second. So to find the compound probability of this you multiply 1/3*1/6.

HELP PLEASE&lt;3 <br> Find the missing angle <br> Btw its trigonometry
ira [324]

Answer:

x = 16.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the measure of an acute angle (31 degrees) of a right angle triangle, and of the side opposite to the angle (10), and we need to find the measure of the adjacent side "x", we use the tangent function:

tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan(31^o)=\frac{10}{x}\\x=\frac{10}{tan(31^o)} \\x \approx 16.64279

which rounded to one decimal is

x = 16.6
