Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual height of the statue = 40 ft

Converting to in,

= 40 ft * 12 in/1 ft

= 480 in.

Scaled height of the statue = 8 in

= 480/8

= 60 in scale

Therefore, scale is 60 in to 1 in

= 5 ft to 1 in.

Answer:

The scale is 5ft represents 1 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

from length conversions 1ft = 12 inches

On the scale model, the height of the statue is 8 inches. The actual height is 40 ft.

40ft = 40*12 inches =480 inches

divide 480 by 8 inches = 480/8 =60

the height of the statue was scaled down using;

60 inches represents 1 inch

convert 60 inches to ft by dividing by 12.   60/12 =5ft  . Thus

5ft  represents 1 inch

The scale is 5ft represents 1 inch

P(x)=f(x)*g(x)
P(x)=(x-400)(1,200-2x)
P(x)=1,200x-2x^2-480,000+800x
P(x)=-2x^2+2,000x-480,000

Answer: Option <span>D. P(x) = -2x2 + 2,000x - 480,000</span>

What are the solutions to x2 + 8x + 7 = 0
3241004551 [841]
X^2 + 8x + 7 = 0
x^2 + 7x + x + 7 = 0
x(x + 7) + 1(x + 7) = 0
(x + 7) (x + 1) = 0

x = -7      or       x = -1
