54 centimeters

Since you have to multiply 3 by 9 to get 27 meters, you also have to multiply 6 by 9 to get the number of centimeters, which is 54 cm. It’s a ratio problem.

Answer:

54 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the blue print size on the top and the real life size on the bottom.


6 cm          x cm

-----------  = -------------

3 meters   27 meter


Using cross products

6* 27 = 3 *x

Divide each side by 3

6/3 * 27 = 3x/3

54= x

Which of the following statements describes the process for solving 4x ≥ -24?
arsen [322]

Answer:

C. Divide both sides of the inequality by 4 but don't flip the symbol.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you solve an inequality, you have to get the x by itself. So, in this inequality, the first thing you would do is divide both sides of the inequality by 4. The new and solved equation would look like this:

x ≥ -6

Because multiplying by a negative, dividing by a negative, or having negatives on both sides of the inequality was not involved in solving for x, flipping the symbol is not needed.

I really hope this helps! Have an amazing day :3

On the x column, you would write 1, 2, 3, 4, and so on. Then, in the y box, you plug in that number into the equation. Write your answer in the y column. 

For example, if x = 1, then 1^2 + 2 - 8 = - 5. 
If x = 1, y= -5

At a local preschool, there is a ratio of 3 boys to every 4 girls. If there are 245 total preschoolers enrolled, then how many a
Reika [66]

Set up the equation by writing the number of students in the ratio as a fraction:

3/4= (245-x)/x Cross multiply:

3x= 4(245-x) Multiply on right:

3x= 980-4x Add 4x on both sides:

7x= 980 Divide both sides by 7:

x= 140 this is how many girls there are. And:

245-140= 105= boys

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The weekly sales must be $12,600

Step-by-step explanation:

if their pay is the same, the equations have to be equal

amelia = jayden

185 +.095x = 311 +.085x

subtract  .085x from each side

185 +.095x-.085x = 311 +.085x-.085x

185+.01x = 311

subtract 185 from each side

185-185+.01x = 311-185

.01x = 126

divide by .01

.01x/.01 = 126/.01

x = 12600
