If you make the measurements into proportions you can solve it.
4/5=120/x where x equals how long the mural is. cross multiply to get 600=4x and divide both sides by 4
so the mural is 150 inches long.

Answer:

The mural is 150 inches long

Step-by-step explanation:

We can turn this given measurements in the problem into porportions to find out the new wide that we need like this:

The relationship between the wide of the photograph and the wide of the mural can be written in a fraction like this:

\frac{4}{120}

The relationship between the length of the photograph and the length of the mural can be written in a fraction like this:

\frac{5}{x}

where x is the length of the mural.

both ratios are the same because we maintian the proportion so we can put them like this:

\frac{4}{120}=\frac{5}{x}

we solve for x

x=\frac{5*120}{4}=150

The mural is 150 inches long

andreyandreev [35.5K]
In the year 2009 there were 3500 birds on an island. If the bird population is declining 2.2% per year it means that in the year 2014 we will have 3500*(1-0.022^{5})=3500*0.978 x^{5}= 3131.57 birds. 
The best prediction is that in the year 2014 the bird population will be 3132.

Solve the equation. 7+3lnx=20
siniylev [52]

Answer:

Simplifying

7 + 3lnx = 15

Solving

7 + 3lnx = 15

Solving for variable 'l'.

Move all terms containing l to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-7' to each side of the equation.

7 + -7 + 3lnx = 15 + -7

Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0

0 + 3lnx = 15 + -7

3lnx = 15 + -7

Combine like terms: 15 + -7 = 8

3lnx = 8

Divide each side by '3nx'.

l = 2.666666667n-1x-1

Simplifying

l = 2.666666667n-1x-1
