For this case, the first thing to do is find the scale factor.
 Using the measure of height we have:
 k = (360) / (18 * (1/12))
 k = 240
 Thus, the length of the building is:
 (14 * (1/12)) * (240) = 280 feet
 Answer:
 
The lenght of the real building is:
 
280 feet

If f(x) varies directly with x and f(x) = 72 when x = 6, find the value of f(x) when x = 3.
Levart [38]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Since f(x) varies directly with x, f(x) can be expressed alternatively as \[f(x) = k * x\] where k is a constant value.

Given that f(x) is 72 when the value of x is 6.

This implies, \[72 = k * 6\]

Simplifying and rearranging the equation to find the value of k:

k = \frac{72}{6}

Hence k = 12

Or, \[f(x) = 12 * x\]

When x = 3, \[f(x) = 12 *3 \]

Or in other words, the value of f(x) when x=3 is 36

the measure of angle a is 16 degrees greater than the measure of angle b. the tow angles are complementary. find the measure of
Fudgin [204]
This is a system of equations problem.  Set up the 2 equations like so: If the angles are complementary then they add up to 90, therefore, a + b = 90.  We also know that a is 16 more than b.  The word "is" means equals and "more" is addition.  Therefore, a is 16 more than b is "a = b + 16".  Now sub in that value of a (b + 16) into the first equation and solve for b.  Then back-substitute to solve for a. (b + 16) + b = 90 so 2b + 16 =  90 and 2b = 74.  So b = 37.  If b = 37, then a + 37 = 90 and a = 53.  Check yourself to make sure that 37 + 53 add up to equal 90 (they do, just get used to checking yourself for accuracy).
