Answer:

Tobey's train model will have a length of 6.5 inches and a width of 3 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is the ratio at which an object is represented in a drawing or model.

In this case, the units of the model are inches and the scale factor is 1/4.

This means that 1 feet of the real train will be represented in 1/4 inches of the model.

If we have a length of 26 feet, that would be represented in 26*1/4=6.5 in the model.

If we have a width of 12 feet, that would be represented in 12*1/4=3 in the model.

Then, Tobey's train model will have a length of 6.5 inches and a width of 3 inches.

a strip of paper is 9/10 of an inch long. you need to cut the paper into 3/12 inch pieces. how many pieces will you be able to c
e-lub [12.9K]
We have to divide 9/10 by 3/12.

if we divide by a fraction, we can instead multiply by it's inverse:

\frac{9}{12}/ \frac{3}{12}  = \frac{9}{12} * \frac{12}{3}

so now we count:

\frac{9}{12} * \frac{12}{3} =\frac{9}{1} * \frac{1}{3}=3

so we can cut exactly 3 pieces!

Pls help me, I dont get the question. Polynomials
AnnZ [28]

The given polyn. is not in std. form. To answer this question, we need to perform the indicated operations (mult., addn., subtrn.) first and then arrange the terms of this poly in descending order by powers of x:

P(x) = x(160 - x) - (100x + 500)

When this work has been done, we get P(x) = 160x - x^2 - 100x - 500, or

P(x) = -x^2 + 60x - 500

So, you see, the last term is -500. This means that if x = 0, not only is there no profit, but the company is "in the hole" for $500.

You have decided to wallpaper your rectangular bedroom. the dimensions are 12 feet 6 inches by 10 feet 6 inches by 8 feet 0 inch
Papessa [141]
The wall area is the product of the room perimeter and the room height:
   A₁ = (2*(12.5 ft + 10.5 ft))*(8.0 ft) = 368 ft²

The window and door area together is
   A₂ = 2*((4 ft)*(3 ft)) + (7 ft)*(3 ft) = 45 ft²

The area of one roll of wallpaper is
   A₃ = (2.5 ft)*(30 ft) = 75 ft²

Then the number of rolls of wallpaper required will be
   1.1*(A₁ - A₂)/A₃ ≈ 4.74

5 rolls of wallpaper should be purchased.

_____
As a practical matter, not much of the window and door area can be saved. The rolls are 30 inches wide, but the openings are 36 inches wide. Some will likely have to be cut from two strips. The strips will have to be the full length of the wall, and the amount cut likely cannot be used elsewhere. If the window and door area cannot be salvaged, then likely ceiling(5.4) = 6 rolls will be needed (still allowing 10% for matching and waste).
