Answer:

<h2>The scale is 1 inch rep 4 feet or </h2><h2>1:4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on ratios, the ratio of one quantity to another is a way to represent their relative size.

Moreso, the scale of a drawing tells us to what extent the drawing has been increased (maximized) or decresed (minimized)

now given that the actual dimention of the appartmentis 28ft wide

and on the drawing the apartment is 7 inches wide, we can see that the actual dimension has been reduced by a factor of 28/7= 4

hence the scale to represent this reduction is

1 inch to represent 4 feet

A padlock has a four-digit code that includes digits from 0 to 9, inclusive. What is the probability that the code does not cons
Eduardwww [97]
Since there is no repetition allowed, there are 10 possibilities for the 1st digit, 9 for the 2nd, 8 for the 3rd, and 7 for the 4th. This gives a total of (10)(9)(8)(7) = 5040 four-digit codes.
For all odd digits to be used, there are 5 possibilities for the 1st digit (1,3,5,7,9), 4 for the 2nd, 3 for the 3rd, 2 for the 4th. This gives a total of (5)(4)(3)(2) = 120 codes that only use odd digits.
Therefore there are 5040 - 120 = 4920 codes that do not consist of all odd digits. The probability is 4920/5040 = 41/42.

In the triangle below, y= . Round to the nearest tenth
horsena [70]

Use cosine.

cosine={adjacent}{hypotenuse}

We have:

adjacent = 9cm and hypotenuse = 17 cm

\cos x=\dfrac{9}{17}\approx0.5294\to x\approx58^o

The average of six weights is 12 kilograms. Another weight of 5 kilograms is added to the scale. What is the average of the seve
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Hi there! Your answer here is 11kg - the average of the seven weights is 11kg. To find the average of a group of numbers, you add all of the numbers (12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 5), then divide by the count of those numbers (7).

12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 5 (or 12*6 + 5) is equal to 77.

77 / 7 = 11.

So the average of the seven weights is 11kg.

Have a great day! - Mani :)

Answer:

$690.86

Step-by-step explanation:

100% from the original cost is: 2 x 863.57 = $1,727.14

40/100 = X/1727.14 (40 percent is what of 1,727.40) (%/100 = is/of)

(40 * 1,727.14) / 100 = $ 690.86
