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.

Is 11/2 and 6/11 equivalent? Plz I need the help☹️
trapecia [35]

For this case we have the following fractions:

\frac {11} {2}\\\frac {6} {11}

We must rewrite the fractions, using the same denominator.

We have then:

We multiply the first fraction by 11 in the numerator and denominator:

\frac {11} {2} \frac {11} {11}

We multiply the second fraction by 2 in the numerator and denominator:

\frac {6} {11} \frac {2} {2}

Rewriting we have:

For the first fraction:

\frac {121} {22}

For the second fraction:

\frac {12} {22}

We note that:

\frac {121} {22}> \frac {12} {22}

Answer:

The fractions are not equivalent:

\frac {11} {2}> \frac {6} {11}

Consider the volume of a rectangular pyramid, one whose base is not square. Does changing one of the three variables (length, wi
user100 [1]

Let

L------> the length of the base of the pyramid

W-----> the width of the base of the pyramid

H-----> the height of the pyramid

V------> Volume of a rectangular pyramid


we know that

V=(1/3)*[L*W]*H

so

the three variables are going to have the same influence on the volume


example

case a) let's change the variable L (we reduce the variable by half)

L=(1/2)*L

the new volume is equal to

V new=(1/3)*[(L/2)*W]*H-----> V new=(1/2)*V

the new volume is half the original volume


case b) let's change the variable W (we reduce the variable by half)

W=(1/2)*W

the new volume is equal to

V new=(1/3)*[(W/2)*L]*H-----> V new=(1/2)*V

the new volume is half the original volume


case c) let's change the variable H (we reduce the variable by half)

H=(1/2)*H

the new volume is equal to

V new=(1/3)*[L*W]*H/2-----> V new=(1/2)*V

the new volume is half the original volume


therefore


the answer is

the three variables have the same influence on the volume
