Answer:

Part 1) The length of the terrace is 15 feet

Part 2) The width of the terrace is 6 feet

Part 3) The area of the terrace is 90 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure </em></u>

we know that

The scale of the plan is \frac{2}{6} \frac{in}{ft}

step 1

Find the length of the terrace

we know that

The length of a terrace in the plan is equal to 5 inches

so

by proportion

Find the length of the terrace in the actual

\frac{2}{6} \frac{in}{ft}=\frac{5}{x} \frac{in}{ft}\\ \\x=6*5/2\\ \\x=15\ ft

step 2

Find the width of the terrace

we know that

The width of a terrace in the plan is equal to

so

by proportion

Find the width of the terrace in the actual

\frac{2}{6} \frac{in}{ft}=\frac{2}{x} \frac{in}{ft}\\ \\x=6*2/2\\ \\x=6\ ft

step 3

Find the area of a terrace

we know that

The area of a terrace is equal to

A=LW

we have

L=15\ ft\\W=6\ ft

substitute

A=15*6=90\ ft^{2}

[someone help] The speed of the object 7 seconds after it is dropped is ___m/sec
nadezda [96]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  68.6 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed at a given time is the derivative of the height at that time.

  dh/dt = -9.8t

At t=7, the speed is ...

  -9.8(7) = -68.6 . . . . . meters per second (downward)

The speed is 68.6 meters per second.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Height is considered to be positive in the up direction, so velocity and acceleration are also positive in the up direction. The derivative of height will be the velocity. Its negative sign in this case indicates the object is moving in the downward direction. The speed is the magnitude (absolute value) of the velocity.

What is the solution of the following system?
Yakvenalex [24]
<h3>Answer:  B) no solutions</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Let's isolate the variable y in the first equation

-2x - y = 1

-2x = 1 + y

1+y = -2x

y = -2x-1

Then we'll plug this into the second equation

-4x - 2y = -1

-4x - 2(-2x-1) = -1

-4x + 4x + 2 = -1

0x + 2 = -1

0 + 2 = -1

2 = -1

We run into a contradiction. No matter what x value we pick, the last equation will never be true. This leads to a domino effect to cause the first set of original equations to never be true when considered as a system.

Therefore, this system is inconsistent. There are no solutions. These two lines graph out parallel lines that never intersect.

Subtract.
ycow [4]
-27 - (-3) = -27 + 3 = - 24

560 - 2(25 + 11) = 560 - 2(36) = 560 - 72 = 488

8y - x^2....x = -5, y = 4
8(4) - (-5)^2 =
32 + 5^2 =
32 + 25 =

Jacob used 1/7 of a liter of water to fill 1/9 of the fish aquarium. How many liters of water are needed to fill the aquarium?
laila [671]
Jacob used 1/7 of a liter of water.
He needs to fill 1/9 of the fish aquarium.
Find how many liters would Jacob need to fill the aquarium
=> Let x = liters of water need to fill the aquarium
=> x/1 = 1/7 divided by 1/9
=> x = 1/7 x 9/1
=> x = 9/7, since this is an improper fraction, let’s convert it to mixed fraction
=> x  = 1 and 2/7
So, Jacob need 1 and 2/7 liter of water to fill the whole aquarium.
