The GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of 40 and 5 is 5!

Divide both numbers by 5.

40 / 5 = 8

-5x / 5 = -x

Rewrite the expression using the distributive property.

5(8 - x)

Best of Luck!

Okay so.
2/5=24/60 (multiply 2/5 by 12)
2/3=40/60 (multiply 2/3 by 20)
1/4=15/60 (multiply 1/4 by 15)
Then,
Add 24/60 with 40/60 which is 64/60 after you get that you subtract by 15/60 and you get 49/60.
Hope this helps!^^

A construction company built a scale model of a building. The model was built using a scale of 3 inches = 32 feet. If the buildi

Vlad1618 [11]

Let x represent the height of the model.

We have been given that a construction company built a scale model of a building. The model was built using a scale of 3 inches = 32 feet. We are asked to find the height of the model, if the building is expected to be 200 feet tall.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem as:

$\frac{\text{Model height}}{\text{Actual height}}=\frac{\text{Model length}}{\text{Actual length}}$

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

$\frac{x}{200\text{ ft}}=\frac{3\text{ in}}{\text{32 ft}}$

$\frac{x}{200\text{ ft}}\times 200\text{ ft}=\frac{3\text{ in}}{\text{32 ft}}\times 200\text{ ft}$

$x=3\text{ in}\times 6.25$

$x=18.75\text{ in}$

Therefore, the model will be 18.75 inches tall.

A circular sector has a central angle of π6 radians and a radius of 9 ft.

ohaa [14]

Answer:

$\approx \: 21.2 \: {ft}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$central \: \angle = \frac{\pi ^{c} }{6} = 30 \degree \\ \\ area \: of \: the \: sector = \frac{30 \degree}{360 \degree} \times \pi {(9)}^{2} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{12} \times 3.14 \times 81 \\ \\ = \frac{1}{12} \times 254.34 \\ \\ = 21.195 \: {ft}^{2} \\ \\ \approx \: 21.2 \: {ft}^{2}$
