To find the width of the scale drawing of the toddler room, you can set up a proportion/ratio.
2.5 m/4 m= 5 cm/x cm
To get from 2.5 to 5, you multiplied by 2, so you will do the same thing to 4 to find the missing scale width.
4 x 2 = 8 cm
The width of the scale drawing is 8 cm.
Answer:
12 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the mother's age by m and the son's by 4. Currently m = 36 years old.
In x years the mother will be three times as old as her son:
mother: 36 + x years old
son: 4 + x years old
The pertinent equation to solve is:
36 + x = 3(4 + x)
Performing the multiplication, we get:
36 + x = 12 + 3x, or
24 = 2x. Then x = 12.
Check: In 12 years, will the mother's age be 3 times the son's age?
Does 36 + 12 = 3(4 + 12)?
Does 48 = 48? YES
The mother will be 3 times as old as her son in 12 years from now.
Answer:
the answer is c
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The slope is 17 / 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
y=mx+b
Find the values of m and b using the form y=mx+b.
m=17 / 2
b=3
The slope of the line is the value of m, and the y-intercept is the value of b.
Slope: 17 / 2
y-intercept: 3
