Answer:

113ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the ratio 1:50 to calculate the height of the tower.

The scale model height is 2.25 feet, so multiply that by 50

2.25 x 50 = 112.5

Round to 113 feet

1. If the same number is added to the numerator and subtracted from the denominator of 23/12, the resulting fraction is equivale

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The number is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the reciprocal of 2/3

Remember that when multiply a number by its reciprocal, the result is 1

so

The reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2

step 2

Let

x-----> the number added to the numerator and denominator

$\frac{23+x}{12-x}=\frac{3}{2}$

Solve for x

$2(23+x)=3(12-x)\\46+2x=36-3x\\2x+3x=36-46\\5x=-10\\x=-2$

step 3

verify

$\frac{23+x}{12-x}$

substitute x=-2

$\frac{23-2}{12+2}$

$\frac{21}{14}$

Simplify

$\frac{3}{2}$ ----> is ok

therefore

The number is -2
