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

Midpoint R(-4,6) and S(2,7)
shusha [124]

To find the midpoint, Add the two X coordinates together then divde by two and then to the same with the Y coordinates:


X = -4 + 2 = -2 / 2 = -1


Y = 6+7 = 13/2


Midpoint = (-1,13/2)

You walk through a used car lot and list the price and model year of each car you see determine whether the two variables are re
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The narrative in the question can not be described as a function

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose of clarity, we will rephrase the question. The key point in the question  is to determine if the price and the model are related and if they fit into independent and dependent function.

Moving forward, to properly answer this question, it will be good for us to understand what dependent and independent functions are.

DEPENDENT FUNCTIONS: These are functions or can also be refereed to as variable that represents quantities or values whose parameter depends on how the independent variable is manipulated.

Example:

You are doing job to earn your a salary. For each project you do, you earn $10 dollar. In this case, the dependent variable is the amount of money you earn because the amount of money you earn depends on how many job or project you do.

INDEPENDENT FUNCTIONS: These are functions or can also be refereed to as variable that we have control over in the process of an event therefore, we are at liberty to manipulate it as we so wish as indicated in the dependent variable.

Going back to the narrative of the question, the narrative in the question can not be described as a function because the two identifies variables which are the price and the model years are been altered due to the fact that it is a used car lot so they have both lost their true value or worth. However, some might argue that price here is the independent function or variable while model year is the dependent variable.
