Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

If the painting is 48 in. wide by 120 in tall.

And her paper is 12 in. wide and 24 in. tall.

Using a scale of 1 in. = 4in. will reduce the original image to

48/4 inch X 120/4 inch

=12inch X 30 inch

The height of the reduced painting is greater than the height of the paper.

A more appropriate scale could be

1 in. = 6in. which reduces our painting to:

48/6inch By 120/6inch

=8inch by 20 inch.

This fits on the paper

Answer:

No it is not a reasonable scale. She should use 1 inch= 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of the drawing is 48 inches, dividing it by 4 inches gives 48/4=12 inches.

This is exactly the width of her paper. Which means the drawing will get to the edge.

The height of the drawing is 120 inches,divide by 4inches you get: 120/4=30 inches. The height of paper is 24 inches. Which means her paper is too small to accommodate the height of the drawing. The preferred scale would be 1 inch=6inches.

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.-

Data

3.3 x 10 ⁴ pounds of paper

1.5 x 10³ pounds of aluminum

Amount of aluminum / amount of paper = 1.5 x 10³ / 3.3 x 10⁴

                                                                  = 0.045 times

                                                                 = 4.5 x 10 ⁻²

2.-

Data

1.2 x 10 ³ text messages in a month

text messages in a year = ?

                  1.2 x 10³ text messages -------------------  1 month

                     x                                   -------------------  12 months

                    x = (12 x 1.2 x 10³) / 1

                    x = 14400 text messages

                   x = 1.44 x 10⁴ text messages

3.-

Data

distance = 4 x 10⁶ miles I am not sure if the power is 6 or 8

speed = 1.6 x 10³ mi/h

Formula

              time = distance / speed

              time = 4 x 10⁶ / 1.6 x 10³

              time = 2500 h

              time = 2.5 x 10 ³ h
