Answer:

392 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, Let me help you with this

to find the real length and width you can use a rule of three

Step 1

length=8 in

Let

if

2.5 in ⇔ 35 ft

8 in ⇔ X ft ?

the relation is

\frac{2.5\ in}{35\ feet}=\frac{8\ in }{x}\\\\solve\ for\ x\\\frac{x*2.5\ in}{35\ feet}=8\ in\\x*2.5\ in=8\ in *35\ feet\\x=\frac{8\ in *35\ feet}{2.5\ in}\\ x=112\ ft  

Step 2

width=6 in

Let

if

2.5 in ⇔ 35 ft

6 in ⇔ X ft ?

the relation is

\frac{2.5\ in}{35\ feet}=\frac{6\ in }{x}\\\\solve\ for\ x\\\frac{x*2.5\ in}{35\ feet}=6\ in\\x*2.5\ in=6\ in *35\ feet\\x=\frac{6\ in *35\ feet}{2.5\ in}\\ x=84\ ft  

Step 2

find the perimeter using

Perimeter = 2*length +2* width

replacing

Perimeter= 2*112 ft +2* 84 ft

Perimeter=224 ft +168 ft

Perimeter=392 ft

Have a nice day

Well if I did my math correctly I do believe the perimeter should be 392 ft.


6÷2.5= 2.4
2.4×35=84

8÷2.5= 3.2
3.2×35=112

84×2
112×2
_____
392

you mult. by 2 because it's a room which usually has four walls and I imagined it being a rectangle.

Simplify (6x^2 - 3 - 5x^3) - (4x^3 +2x^2 - 8)
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

-9x^3+4x^2+5

Step-by-step explanation:

(6x^2 - 3 - 5x^3) - (4x^3 +2x^2 - 8)

distribute the minus sign

(6x^2 - 3 - 5x^3) - 4x^3 -2x^2 + 8

Combine like terms

-5x^3 -4x^3 +6x^2 - 2x^2 -3 +8

-9x^3+4x^2+5
