The scale size is 2cm:4m
MaRussiya [10]
I'm not sure which one is the scale size so i'll solve for both...

Ratio is 2cm:4m
0.02m:4m or 2cm:400cm also work as ratios

400cm/2cm=200 (so the scale is 200X smaller than the original)

Option 1::

If the scale of the item is:

l=12cm and w=6cm

then we can solve for the actual size by multiplying the values by 200

l=12cm*200=2400cm or 24m

w=6cm*200=1200cm or 12m

Option 2::

If the original item has a length of 12m and a width of 6m then:

l=12m and w=6m

We can find the scale length by dividing by 200

l=12m/200=.06m or 6cm

w=6m/200=0.03m or 3cm

I don’t know how to solve this
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{4} x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) =( 8, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 5)

m = \frac{-5+3}{0-8} = \frac{-2}{-8} = \frac{1}{4}

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 5 ) ⇒ c = - 5

y = \frac{1}{4} x - 5 ← equation of line

What are two numbers that add up to 43 and their difference is 11?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

27 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 43

x - y = 11

You can add up the two equations so the ys are cancelled out.

2x = 54

x = 27

Plug x in to find y.

27 - y = 11

y = 16
