Answer:

Option D is correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that an architect's electronic blueprint of a building has a scale of 1 inch equals 12 feet.

To find actual distance between the floor on the first floor and the floor on the 15th floor we will multiply blueprint distance by 12.

14.375\text{ inches} \cdot 12\frac{\text{ feet}}{\text{ inch}}

=172.5\text{ feet}

Therefore, actual distance between the floor on the first floor and the floor on the 15th floor is 172.5 feet.

Answer:

Option D. 172.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

An architect's electronic blueprint of a building has a scale of 1 inch = 12 feet.

It is given that the distance between first floor and 15th floor = 14.375 inches.

We will make a set up of equal ratio.

\frac{\text{12 feet}}{\text{1 inches}} = \frac{\text{x feet}}{\text{14.375 inches}}

x = 14.375 × 12

x = 172.5 feet

Option D. The two floors are 172.5 feet apart.

Find the missing angle measure. then classify the triangle by its angles and by its sides.
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Part a) The measure of the missing angle is 90\°

Part b) The triangle of the figure is a right triangle

Part c) The triangle of the figure is a scalene triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180\°

so

Let

x------> the missing angle

we know that

x\°+50\°+40\°=180\°

solve for x

x=180\°-90\°=90\°

The triangle of the figure is a right triangle --------> by its angles

Because the triangle has an angle measure of 90\°

The triangle of the figure is a scalene triangle --------> by its sides

Because the three angles and the three sides measures are different

I don’t know how to solve this problem
miss Akunina [59]

The draws are independent, so

P(\text{red then blue})=P(\text{red})\cdot P(\text{blue})

There is a total of 11 marbles in the bag, so

P(\text{red})=\dfrac3{11}

and

P(\text{blue})=\dfrac5{11}

So

P(\text{red then blue})=\dfrac{15}{121}
