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

Lelu [443]

Answer:

The cost of labor per hour is $105.

The expression is 4x + 77 = 497

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is 4x + 77 = 497, where 4x represents the cost of labor per hour, 77 is the cost of the parts, and 497 is the total.

4x + 77 = 497

4x + 77 - 77 = 497 -77

4x = 420

4x/4=420/4

x = 105

What is the standard form of y= 1/4x +6
viktelen [127]

Answer:

x-4y=-24

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is Ax + By = C, so we want x to be on the left side

To accomplish this, subtract 1/4x from both sides.

-\frac{1}{4} x+y=6

Multiply by -4 to get x to be equal to 1.

x -4y=-24

twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs. 10 times the number of cream puffs was only
Karolina [17]

donuts and cream puffs were  45 & 4 respectively !

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs. 10 times the number of cream puffs was only 5 less than the number of donuts   We need to find how many donuts and cream puffs were there . Let's find out:

Let number of donuts and cream puffs are x & y respectively ! So ,

  • twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs

According to this statement equation is :

⇒ 2x=24y-6

⇒ x=12y-3            ................(1)

  • 10 times the number of cream puffs was only 5 less than the number of donuts

According to this statement equation is :

⇒ 10y= x-5

⇒ x=10y+5               ................(2)

Equation (1) & (2) :

⇒ 12y-3=10y+5

⇒ 2y=8

⇒ y=4

Putting  y=4 in  x=12y-3  :

⇒ x = 12(4)-3

⇒ x = 45

Therefore , donuts and cream puffs were  45 & 4 respectively !
