Answer:

  • <em><u>The field in Lexie's drawing should be 20 cm long.</u></em>

Explanation:

Making a scale drawing requires that the figure be similar, which implies that the sides of the figures be proportional.

The proportion for a drawing 30 cm wide and unknown length with the soccer field that is 120 yards long and 80 yards wide is:

  • length of the drawing / width of the drawing = length of the field / width of the field

Thus, using x for the unknown width of the drawing:

  • 30 cm / x = 120 yard / 80 yard

Thus, you must solve for x:

  • 30 cm × 80 yard = 120 yard × x

  • x = 30 cm × 80 yard / 120 yard = 20 cm.

Hence, the field in Lexie's drawing should be 20 cm long.

QUICK! heres the question. select the equations where x=3 is a soultion
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer: x-3=0 and 6=2x

Step-by-step explanation: to find what X equals for each equation you have to get X alone to get X alone in the first option you have to do +3 to both sides of the equal sign which leaves you with x=3 which you then do for the rest of the options an select all the one left with x=3.

If Log 20 = 1.301 what is the value of Logsub100 20?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

log_{100}20 = 0.6505

Step-by-step explanation:

log20 = 1.301 (when you see only "log" with no base, it is taken as a base 10)

This basically means:

10^{1.301} = 20  (This is the log in exponential form)

Since we don't know what  log_{100}20  is equal to, we will say  log_{100}20 = x

So to solve for log_{100}20 = x, you do the same thing. (convert to exponential form)

100^{x} =20

Now you will notice that both of these equations are equal to 20.

Since 20 = 20,

we can say 100^{x} = 10^{1.301}

Another way of saying 100, is 10^{2} (make the bases the same)

Now we get 10^{2x} = 10^{1.301}      

(we get 2x because an exponent to the power of an exponent (2^{x}) is the same as 2 * x)

Because you have the same base, you can just ignore the 10s and focus on the exponents. So you get:

2x = 1.301

x = 0.6505

Find the surface area of composite figure. use 3.14 for π. round to the nearest tenth
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

334 in^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area = area of the top prism + area of the bottom - 2 * area of the base of the  top smaller prism

= 2(5*3 + 5*3 + 3*3) + 2(9*7 + 9*5 + 7*5) -  2* 3*5

= 2* 39 + 2*143 - 30

= 334
