The Empire State Building is just over 1,450 feet tall. In anticipation of visiting this landmark on your vacation, you create a

model of it using blocks.
a. Suppose you are making a model where one block represents 2 feet. About how many blocks tall is your model of the Empire State Building? What is the scale factor?

Answer:

725, 1 per every 2 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

It gives the actual height for the building, 1,450, and it says one block is two feet. Divide 1,450 by 2 and you'd get 725. And we already know dat one block is two feet so it's 1:2

You have two given data available here: the actual height of the Empire State Building measuring 1,450 feet, and the height of the block measuring 2 feet. To find how many blocks stacked together would make up 1,450 feet, just divide 1,450 by 2.

Number of blocks=1,450 feet * (1 block/2 feet)
Number of blocks = 725 blocks

Therefore, you would use a model  requiring 725 blocks. The scale factor for the model is 1 block per two feet.

I will give brainliest to the best answer to this question: Each year, the Department of Water Works measures the chloride conce
Maslowich

Answer:

The total change that will likely occur in 2 years is =-3\frac{2}{3} mg/L        

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The first year, they found the chloride concentration changed by -1\frac{3}{5} mg/L .

It is estimated that the chloride concentration will change -2\frac{1}{15} mg/L the next year.

To find : What is the total change that will likely occur in 2 years?

Solution :

The chloride concentration changed by -1\frac{3}{5}=-\farc{8}{5} mg/L in first year.

The chloride concentration will change -2\frac{1}{15}=-\frac{31}{15} mg/L the next year.

The total change that will likely occur in 2 years is

=-\frac{8}{5}+(-\frac{31}{15})

=\frac{-24-31}{15}

=\frac{-55}{15}

=\frac{-11}{3}

In a mixed fraction - =-3\frac{2}{3} mg/L

A surfer is riding a 7 foot wave. The angle of depression from the surfer to the shoreline is 10 degrees. What is the distance f
denis23 [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from the surfer to the shoreline will be found as follows:

tan θ= opposite/adjacent

θ=10°

opposite=7ft

adjacent= x ft

substituting the values in our formula and solving for x we get

tan 10=7/x

hence

x=7/tan10

x=39.69897~ 39.7 ft

The surfer is 39.7 ft from the shoreline.
