<span>The triangle on paper is 5 inches wide by 7 inches high.</span><span>
</span><span>
If 1 inch on paper is equal to 1.5 feet on paper, then you need to multiply all dimensions by 18 because 1.5 feet is equal to 18 inches and you are getting 18 inches on the real banner for every inch on the paper banner. </span><span>

5 * 18 = 90 inches from the base of the rear triangle.</span><span>
7 * 18 = 125 inches for the height of the rear triangle. </span><span>
</span><span>The area of the paper triangle will be 5 * 7 / 2 = 35/2 square inches.</span><span>
The area of the rear triangle will be 90 * 125 / 2 = 5625 square inches. </span><span>

regarding feet: 

The base of the real banner will be 125/12 = 10.41666666....... feet.</span><span>
the height of the real banner will be 90 / 12 = 7.5 feet.</span><span>
the area of the real banner will be 5625 / 12^1 = 5625 / 144 = 39.0625 square feet.</span><span>
</span>

6. A stoplight at an intersection stays red for 60 second, changes to green for 45
erica [24]

Answer:

0.75 = 75% probability that he will have to wait at a red light for more than 15 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

At each second, the stoplight is equally likely to change, which means that we use the uniform probability distribution to solve this question.

Uniform probability distribution:

Has two bounds, a and b. The probability of finding a value higher than x is given by:

P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}

Red for 60 seconds

So when Jamal arrives it can change in any number of seconds between 0 and 60, that is, a = 0, b = 60

Probability that he will have to wait at a red light for more than 15 seconds?

P(X > 15) = \frac{60 - 15}{60 - 0} = \frac{45}{60} = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75

0.75 = 75% probability that he will have to wait at a red light for more than 15 seconds

trevor tutors french for $15 and hour and scoops ice cream for $10 an hour. he is going to work 15 hours this week. at least how
yaroslaw [1]
Total number of hours = 15

Let the hours spent tutoring french be x.

Therefore hours spent on scooping ice cream = (15 - x)

Amount:    Tutoring french is $15 an hour, total for x hours = 15x

For scooping ice cream  it is $10 an hour   10*(15 - x) = 150 - 10x

To make more than $180

15x  + (150 - 10x)  > 180

15x + 150 - 10x > 180

15x - 10x > 180 - 150

5x > 30

x > 30/5

x > 6

So he needs to tutor more than 6 hours in order to make more than $180
