Answer:
The actual tower would be 45 ft wide.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the width, we need to determine the scale factor. We can do that by dividing the actual height by the model height.
60ft:24in = 15ft:6in = 2.5ft:1in
Now we use that scale factor to determine the width. Multiply the scale factor by the width of the model.
18 inches * 2.5ft/in = 45 feet
3(x-7)+8=-20
Multiply the bracket by 3
(3)(x)(3(-7)+8= -20
3x-21+8= -20
3x-13= -20
Move -13 to the other side. Sign changes from -13 to +13.
3x-13+13= -20+13
3x= -7
Divide by 3
3x/3= -7/3
x= -7/3 or in mixed number : -2 1/3
Answer : x= -7/3 or in mixed number : -2 1/3
The sales tax is .075 so she would pay 23.65 for the earbuds
