The room scale will only fit on an 8 1/2" X 11" page if 1/2 iinch = 1 foot is used. If we take the largest measurement 15 X 20......the 15 would hang over the edge of the paper no matter which way we turn it. With the 1/2" we can get 17 feet on the 8 1/2 side and and 22 on the 11" side.

1/2 inch = 1 foot is the correct answer

<span>1 inch = 1 foot is the answer. The</span> appropriate scale to use on an 8 1/2 by 11 sheet of paper for a sketch of the room and carpet is <span>1 inch = 1 foot. The other choices are incorrect because it is not possible for 1/2 inch= 1 foot and it is grammatically wrong when we say 1 inches= 1 foot.</span><span />

Manuel borrowed $1,500 from his bank and signed a
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The total interest to pay back on the loan is $122.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Here. we want to get the amount of interest on the loan

We are going to use the compound interest formula here

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

where A is the amount to be paid back

P is the amount borrowed called the principal which is $1,500

r is the interest rate which is 4% annually

This is same as 4/100 = 0.04

n is the number of times the interest will be compounded per year ; annually means yearly and so for this case, n = 1

t is the number of years = 2

So we have;

A = 1500(1 + 0.04/1)^(2)(1)

A = 1500(1.04)^(2)

A =$ 1,622.40

So the amount of interest is the difference between the amount borrowed and the value to pay back

That will be;

$1,622.40 - $1,500

= $122.40

If f(x)= 5x + 4 and g(x) = 1/2x<br><br> find ,<br> a) fg(5)
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

f(g(5)) = 16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate f(g(5)), evaluate g(5) then substitute the value obtained into f(x)

g(5) = \frac{1}{2} × 5 = 2.5 , then

f(2.5) = 5(2.5) + 4 = 12.5 + 4 = 16.5
