Answer:
The length of the pool is 28 meters and the width of the pool is 10.5 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the scale drawing of Joe, the community pool has (length : width) = 8 : 3
Let the actual length of the pool is 8x meters and the actual width is 3x meters.
Now, given that the actual pool has a perimeter of 77 meters.
So, 2(8x + 3x) = 77
⇒ 22x = 77
⇒ x = 3.5
So, the length of the pool is 8x = 8(3.5) = 28 meters and the width of the pool is 3x = 3(3.5) = 10.5 meters. (Answer)
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x= -3/4 or -0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
1) subtract 7 from both sides which would make it
-3x= 5x+6
2) Subtract 5x from both sides which would make it
-8x-6
3) Divide both sides by -8
which gives you -3/4
Answer:
The best estimate of the area of the larger figure is 
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
<em>Find the scale factor</em>
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor
Let
z----> the scale factor
x-----> the corresponding side of the larger figure
y-----> the corresponding side of the smaller figure
so

we have


substitute
-----> the scale factor
step 2
<em>Find the area of the larger figure</em>
we know that
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared
Let
z----> the scale factor
x-----> the area of the larger figure
y-----> the area of the smaller figure
so

we have


substitute and solve for x

(9y+y) + (6+3)
The answer is 10y+9
