Explain why you can subtract exponents when you are dividing two powers with the same base.

masya89 [10]

When you divide numbers, you make the value smaller. So subtract the exponents will make the value with that base smaller.

This diagram of a rectangular city park was drawn using a scale of 1 centimeter to 20 meters

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Scale factor for the drawing from actual park = $\frac{1}{20}$

Area of the actual park = 1200 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the rectangular city park = 5 cm

Width of the rectangular park = 6 cm

Using scale factor 1 cm = 20 meters

Scale factor = $\frac{\text{length of the park in drawing}}{\text{Actual length of park}}=\frac{1}{20}$

$\frac{5}{\text{Actual length of park}}=\frac{1}{20}$

Actual length = 5 × 20 = 100 meters

Actual width = 6 × 20 = 120 meters

Area of the rectangular park = length × width

= 100 × 120

= 1200 square meters

Therefore, Scale factor from actual length to the length in drawing = 1 : 20

Area of the rectangular park = 1200 square feet
