Answer:

22 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Change 15 feet into inches using the conversion

1 foot = 12 inches, thus

15 ft = 15 × 12 = 180 inches

scale factor = 180 ÷ 3.75 = 48

Thus the actual dimensions of the boat are 48 times the model.

actual length = 48 × 5.5 = 264 inches = 264 ÷ 12 = 22 feet

What is the value of x in the equation 6(x + 1) – 5x = 8 + 2(x - 1)?<br> OIT MT
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to get all the variables on one side of the equation, and all the numbers on the other

6(x + 1) – 5x = 8 + 2(x - 1)

First, distribute the 6 on the left

6*x+6*1 -5x=8 +2(x-1)

6x+6-5x=8+2(x=1)

Combine like terms on the left

(6x-5x)+6=8+2(x-1)

x+6=8+2(x-1)

Distribute the 2 on the right

x+6=8+2*x+2*-1

x+6=8+2x-2

Combine like terms on the right

x+6=2x+(8-2)

x+6=2x+6

Subtract x from both sides

6=x+6

Subtract 6 from both sides

x=0

Hope this helps! :)
