Answer:

The answer to your question is 20 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

ratio  1 : 30

real length = 55 ft

toy train length = ?

Process

1.- Use ratio and proportions to solve this problem.

                           1 : 30 :: x : 55

solve

                           x = (55 x 1) / 33

Simplification

                           x = 55/33

result

                           x = 1.67 ft

2.- Convert the length to in

                         1 ft ------------------ 12 in

                        1.67 ft --------------   x

                          x = (1.67 x 12) / 1

-Simplification

                          x = 20/1

-Result

                           x = 20 in

Naily [24]

Answer:

P ( -1, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio is AP : PB = 3 : 2 = m : n  and points A(5,6) B(-5,-9)

We will calculate coordinates of the point P which divides line segment AB  in the following way:

xp = (n · xa + m · xb) / (m+n) = (2 · 5 + 3 · (-5)) / (3+2) = (10-15) / 5 = -5/5 = -1

xp = -1

yp = (n · ya + m · yb) / (m+n) = (2 · 6 + 3 · (-9)) / (3+2) = (12-27) / 5 = -15/5 = -3

yp = -3  

Point P( -1, -3)

there are 27 red or blue marbles in the bag the number of red marbles is 5 less than three times the number of blue marbles how
maria [59]
Answer=24 blue marbles and 3 red marbles

r=red marbles
b=blue marbles
b=3(r+5)

27=b+r
substitue b for '3(r+5)'
27=3(r+5)+r
27=3r+15+r
27=4r+15
subtract 15 from both sides
12=4r
divide both sides by 4
3=r

There are 3 red marbles

27=b+r
27=b+3
subtract 3 from both sides
24=b

There are 24 blue marbles
