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

Anna71 [15]

f(2) This means that x is 2, so you plug in 2 for x in the equation

f(x)=\frac{1}{3} (4^x)

f(2)=\frac{1}{3}(4^2)

f(2)=\frac{1}{3} (16)

f(2)=\frac{16}{3}

Find the volume of the cylinder height 10 in base radius 3 in
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer: 282.60in³

Step-by-step explanation:

When calculating the volume of a cylinder, the formula to use is:

= πr²h

where,

π = 3.14

r = radius = 3 in

h = height = 10 in

Volume = πr²h

= 3.14 × 3² × 10

= 282.60

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 282.60in³
