Mathematics
1 answer:
eduard3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem of scale

where scale is

actual height of any object/ height of that object on drawing

given

actual height = 24 feet

this is represented 1/2 inch on drawing

thus

scale = actual height/ height on drawing = 24 feet/1/2 inch = 24*2 feet/ 1 inch

scale = 48 feet / 1 inch

given actual  height of a building = 480 feet

let the height on drawing be x inch

thus

48 feet / 1 inch = 480 feet/ x inch

=> x inch/ 1 inch = 480 feet / 48 feet

=> x = 10 feet

Thus,  the  height of  building on the drawing is 10 feet

The length of a rectangle is twice the width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 60 units, find the area of the garden.​
AlexFokin [52]
Perimeter = (length+width) x 2


Let w units be the width of the rectangle.

Length of the rectangle = 2w

Perimeter:
(2w+w) x 2 = 60

(3w)2 = 60

6w = 60

w = 10


Area:
2(10) x 10

= 20 x 10

= 200 units
