Why is 12 inches 1 foot a conversion factor ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alinara [238K]3 years ago
3 0

I have no better answer than simply, because there are 12 inches in a foot.

By definition a conversion factor is one unit being used to express a group or multiple of another unit. Just like how there are 12 of anything in one dozen. 100 years in one century. 365 days in one year. 100 centimeters in a meter. 4 quarts in one gallon. 10 dimes in one dollar. They are equal to each other and, thus, can be used as conversion factors.

A log-level model relating the natural logarithm of house price, y, to square footage was fit. The fitted model is stack ln (p r
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

$255,331

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the estimated price

ln (price) =11.65 +0.000473*square foot

Square feet =1,692

First step is to find the ln (price)

ln (price) =11.65 +0.000473*1,692

ln (price)=12.450316

Last step is to calculate the Estimated price by using calculator to find the exponential of 12.450316

Estimated price=e^(12.450316)

Estimated price=$255,330.99

Estimated price=$255,331 Approximately

Therefore the estimated price of a house that is 1,692 square feet will be $255,331

In hopes of encouraging healthier snacks at school, Zack brought in a tray of carrot sticks and apple slices to share. The tray
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

48% were carrot sticks.

52% were apple slices.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of snacks in the tray = 25

Number of carrot sticks = 12

Number of apple slices = 25 - 12 = 13

Percent of carrot sticks = \frac{Number\ of\ carrot\ sticks}{Total\ Number}*100

Percent of carrot sticks= \frac{12}{25}*100

Percent of carrot sticks = 0.48 * 100 = 48%

Percent of apple slices = \frac{13}{25}*100

Percent of apple slices = 52%

Hence,

48% were carrot sticks.

52% were apple slices.

An isosceles triangle has 2 equivalent sides. The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 84 centimeters. The measure of one of th
Pani-rosa [81]

Well, to find your solution to this problem, I would subtract 84 from 32 = 52. I would divide the number by 2, which equals 26. So, side lengths are 32, 26, and 26. 

Or, another one is that 2 sides have the length of 32, so 32+32=64. I would subtract 84 from 64 and get 20. So, side lengths are 32, 32, and 20.
