8 ft wide, 12 ft long......so if u want it 2 ft wide, u have a scale factor of 1/4.
that means ur length will be 12 * 1/4 = 12/4 = 3 ft long

A = L * W
A = 3 * 2
A = 6 square ft <==

Efren leaves home at 9am and walks 4 miles per hour. His brother, gregory leaves half an hour later and runs 8.5 miles per hour
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Gregory will catch up Efren after 26 minutes 40 seconds.

Explanation:

 Distance traveled = Speed x Time

 Speed of Efren = 4 mi/h

 Speed of Gregory = 8.5 mi/h

 Let the time of catch up be t hours.

 Time of journey of Efren before catch up = (t+0.5)hours, since he starts before half hour.

 Distance traveled by Efren = 4 x (t+0.5) miles

 Time of journey of Gregory before catch up = t hours.

 Distance traveled by Gregory = 8.5 x t miles

If they catch up the distance traveled by them is same, so equating both distances.

4 x (t+0.5) = 8.5 x t

4.5t = 2

t = 0.44 hours =26.67 minutes = 26 minutes 40 seconds.

So Gregory will catch up Efren after 26 minutes 40 seconds.
