We are given dimensions of model and actual figure.

model: 9.5cm actual : 30.5m.

We need to find the length of actual shape for the scale factor 5cm.

Let us assume actual length be x m.

Let us set a proportion now.

<h3>5 : x = 9.5 : 30.5</h3>

Let us convert proportion into fractions.

\frac{5}{x}=\frac{9.5}{30.5}

On cross multiplying, we get

9.5x = 5× 30.5

9.5x = 152.5.

On dividing both sides by 9.5, we get

\frac{9.5x}{9.5}=\frac{152.5}{9.5}

x=16.05.

<h3>Therefore, the scale factor for a model is 5cm= 16.05 m.</h3>

  • 3x+y=8--(1)

2x+4y=12

  • x+2y=6--(2)

  • (1)×1 and (2)×3

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 3x+y=8

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 3x+6y=18

Subtract both

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow -5y=-10

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=\dfrac{-10}{-5}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=2

Put the value in eq(2)

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x+2(2)=6

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x+4=6

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=6-4=2

PLEASE HELP! I WILL MARK YOU AS BRAINLIEST!
velikii [3]

Answer:

10 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square = s², where s is the measure of the side

To calculate the side use Pythagoras' identity

Consider the lower side with right triangle legs 3 and 1, then

side² = 3² + 1² = 9 + 1 = 10 ( take the square root of both sides )

side = \sqrt{10}, thus

area = (\sqrt{10} )² = 10 cm²
