Place the right angle at the origin. Short leg on x-axis.
The forth corner of the square is the point on the hypotenuse where the line y = x intersects. (Draw a diagram!)
In this case the hypotenuse is y = -4x/3 + 8
x = -4x/3 + 8
7x/3 = 8
7x = 24
x = 3.428571429
Find the perimeter of the scale artwork
P=2(l+w)
P=2(2.5+1.75)
=2(4.25)= 8.5 in
1 in = 0.5 ft
8.5in = 0.5(8.5)
=4.25ft = 51 in
the actual perimeter is 51 in or 4.25 ft
Answer:
60 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Setting the proportion up:
x/25=24/10
Cross Multiply.
10x=24*25
10x=600
Divide both sides by 10.
x=60
Answer:
The first student is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
With the given information there is already 4 inches on the rectangle. 13 x2 = 26. 26+4=30. For student two if the unknown number was 10 it would not work because the longest side is 3 less then the unknown number. 10-3=7. 7x2=14. 14+4= 28<30
