Answer:
B. The ratio of the area of the scale drawing to the area of the painting is 1:16
C. The ratio of the perimeter of the scale drawing to the perimeter of the painting is 1:4
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the area of similar figures/shapes = the square of the ratio of any of their side lengths
Since the scale drawing of the rectangular painting and the actual rectangular painting are similar, therefore,
The ratio of the area of the scale drawing to the painting = 1²:4²
= 1:16
Also, comparing the ratio of the perimeter of the scale drawing to the perimeter of the painting will be the same as the scale factor = 1:4
Let the two numbers be represented by x and y. The problem statement gives rise to two sets of equations.
x - y = 0.6
y/x = 0.6 . . . . . . . assuming x is the larger of the two numbers
or
x/y = 0.6 . . . . . . . assuming y has the larger magnitude
The solution of the first pair of equations is
(x, y) = (1.5, 0.9)
The solution of the first and last equations is
(x, y) = (-0.9, -1.5)
The pairs of numbers could be {0.9, 1.5} or {-1.5, -0.9}.
Answer:
-3y +12 = -48
-3y = -60
y = -60/-3
y = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that both specific qualified applicants will be among the eight selected is given by:

The probability that the two will get apartments on the North side is given by:

The probability that the two will get apartments on the South side is given by:

The events '2 apartments on North side' and '2 apartments on South side' are mutually exclusive. Therefore the probability the two specific qualified applicants will be on the same side of town is 0.107 + 0.357 = 0.464.
Finally, the probability that two specific qualified applicants will be selected for apartments on the same side of town is found from:
