If a room is 20 by 24 feet, how big is it on a floor plan where 1/2 inch represents 1 foot?

1 answer:

6 0

Well if you take the room being 20 x 24. Thats 480 feet. But you want how large in 1/2 inch. 1/2 inch is 1/24 of a foot. So if we take 480 feet being 1 and times it by 24. (480 x 24) You get 11,520 half inches. Brainliest would be much appreciated if you feel its deserved.

Check the picture below.

$\bf 0=AB^2+6AB-121\implies \stackrel{\textit{using the quadratic formula}}{AB=\cfrac{-6 \pm \sqrt{6^2-4(1)(-121)}}{2(1)}}
\\\\\\
AB=\cfrac{-6 \pm \sqrt{520}}{2}\implies AB=\cfrac{-6 \pm \sqrt{4\cdot 130}}{2}
\\\\\\
AB=\cfrac{-6 \pm \sqrt{2^2\cdot 130}}{2}\implies AB=\cfrac{-6 \pm 2\sqrt{130}}{2}
\\\\\\
AB=-3\pm\sqrt{130}\implies AB=
\begin{cases}
\boxed{-3+\sqrt{130}}\\\\
-3-\sqrt{130}
\end{cases}$

since the distance AB cannot be a negative value, thus is not -3-√(130).
