JulijaS [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The scale used by Sarah is 1 to 43.2 inches ( drawing to actual)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the scale used for the drawing of the Dinosaur by sarah.

The actual height of the Dinosaur is 9 feet, but in her drawing she represented the height by 2.5 inches( 2 1/2 is same as 2.5 inches)

Mathematically, we know that 1 foot is 12 inches;

So the actual height of the Dinosaur is 9 * 12 = 108 inches

So practically, what she has done is to represent a height of 108 inches by 2.5 inches

So the scale factor used will be;

108/2.5 = 43.2

The scale used is 1 to 43.2 or simply 1:43.2 to represent the drawing to the actual

4.
-3/4 - 2/3 ÷ (-4/5)
= -3/4 - [2/3 ÷ (-4/5)]
{switch the numerator and denominator when changing from ÷ to ×, or × to ÷}
= -3/4 - [2/3 × (-5/4)]
{numerator × numerator, and denominator × denominator}
= -3/4 - [-10/12]
= -3/4 + 10/12
= -9/12 + 10/12
= 1/12

5.
-2 2/5 + (-2 4/5) × 4/7
= -2 2/5 - (2 4/5 × 4/7)
= -12/5 - (14/5 × 4/7)
= -12/5 - (56/35)
{Simplify fraction to make denominators same}
= -12/5 - (8/5)
= -20/5
= -4/1
= -4

6.
-(-3/5) - 1 3/7 ÷ (-5/14)
{Negative signs cancelled out, fractions compounded}
= 3/5 - 10/7 ÷ (-5/14)
{Switch numerator and denominator when switch from ÷ to ×}
= 3/5 - [10/7 × (-14/5)]
= 3/5 - [-140/35]
= 3/5 + 20/5
= 23/5
{Simplify fraction}
= 4 3/5

Hope this helps! :) You may ask me for more help if you need
