Answer:

Part a) The area of the actual floor is 576\ ft^{2}

Part b) The ratio of the area in the drawing to the actual area is \frac{1}{9}\frac{cm^{2}}{ft^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale drawing is \frac{1}{3}\frac{cm}{ft}

step 1

Find the dimensions of the square on a scale drawing

The area of a square is equal to

A=b^{2}

where

b is the length side of the square

A=64\ cm^{2}

so

64=b^{2}

b=8\ cm

step 2

Find the dimensions of the actual floor

Divide the length of the floor on the drawing by the scale drawing

8/(1/3)=24\ ft

step 3

Find the area of the actual floor

The area of a square is equal to

A=b^{2}

substitute

A=24^{2}=576\ ft^{2}

step 4

Find the ratio of the area in the drawing to the actual area

\frac{64}{576}\frac{cm^{2}}{ft^{2}}

Simplify

Divide by 64 both numerator and denominator

\frac{1}{9}\frac{cm^{2}}{ft^{2}}

The area of a pentagon increased by 27 is the same as four times the area of the pentagon, minus 15. what is the area of the pen
Basile [38]
Set up an algebraic equation. This is what it looks like based on what the question tells you:

Let a = area of pentagon
a+27 = 4a-15
3a-15 = 27
3a = 42
a = 14

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find how long it takes for the bacteria to lose half its size. We can do this by taking one point of the bacteria and finding how long it takes to go to half its size. When t=0, 9300 * (1/64)^t = 9300 * 1 = 9300 as anything to the power of 0 is 1. Therefore, we can solve for t when the end result of the bacteria is 9300/2= 4650, making our equation

4650 = 9300 * (1/64)^t

divide both sides by 9300

1/2 = (1/64)^t

First, we can tell that 2^6 = 64*. Because of this, we can say that (1/2)^6 = 1^6/2^6 = 1/64, so (1/64)^(1/6) = 1/2. We know this because

(1/2)^6 = 64

take the 6th root of both sides

(1/2) = (64)^(1/6)

. This means that t=1/6, so the bacterial culture loses 1/2 of its size every 1/6 seconds

* if this is harder to figure out, e.g. 3 and 729, we can plug (log₃729) into a calculator

The school baseball team has 3 pitchers. How many different 3-player pitching schedules can the coach choose from?
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

6 schedules

Step-by-step explanation:

First, decide if this situation describes a combination or a permutation by looking at the significance of order. Consider a specific example where the letters A – C represent the 3 different pitchers. The pitching order A, B, C is different from the pitching order B, C, A because the players will be pitching at different times. Therefore, this situation describes a permutation. Use the formula for finding the number of permutations when the number of pitchers is 3, so n = 3, and all 3 are taken at a time, so r = 3 as well.
