Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) what is the total square footage of the fence ?
we know that
The area of the fence is equal to

substitute the values

Part 2) How much will Jake get paid
Using proportion

To find the scale factor divide the bigger measurement by the smaller one.
You did number 17. 42 / 3 = 14 so your scale factor is 14, option D.
For number 18, 48 / 6 = 8 so option A.
Answer:
0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
15/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "d" be the total distance, that is, the distance for swimming (s), running (r) and going by bike (b).
d = s + r + b [1]
1/24 of the total distance is covered by swimming.
s = 1/24 d [2]
1/3 of the distance is covered by running.
r = 1/3 d [3]
If we replace [2] and [3] in [1], we get
d = 1/24 d + 1/3 d + b
b = d - 1/24 d - 1/3 d
b = 24/24 d - 1/24 d - 8/24 d
b = 15/24 d = 5/8 d
The ratio of the distance covered by bike to the distance covered by running is:
b/r = (5/8 d)/(1/3 d) = 15/8
