2. You have a painting that is 30 in. wide and 22.5 in. tall. You would like to reproduce it on a sheet of paper that measures 8

1/2 in. by 11 in., leaving at least a 1­in. margin on all four sides. a) What scale should you use if you keep the sheet of paper in the normal upright orientation? Assume that the reproduction will be as large as possible. b) What scale should you use if you turn the paper on its side?

Answer:

a) The scale factor is 5

b) The scale factor is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  Measurement of the sheet is 8 1/2 in. by 11 in.

If we leave 1 in. margin on all 4 sides, then the picture will fit in the area of

6 1/2 in. by 9 in.

The original measurement of the painting is 30 in. by 22.5 in.

So, choosing a scale of 5 will be good because choosing scale 4 will exceed the width of the paper.


b) If we turn the paper on its side, then the width and height will be 9 in. by 6 1/2 in.

For this measurement, choosing a scale 4 would be fine because choosing scale 3 will exceed the width of the paper.

A. So, what I did was divided 30/8.5 and 22.5/11, and used the smaller of the two answers because that way they'd both fit, so I got 2.045. (I'm not 100% sure, but that's what i'd do)
b. Do something similar, and divide both sides, this time 30/11 and 22.5/8.5, so 2.647.

The width of a kitchen is 4.2 metres.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Given:

The width of a kitchen is 4.2 metres.

Kitchen cupboard widths are 60 cm.

To find:

The number of kitchen cupboard that will fit in 4.2 metres.

Solution:

Let x be the number of kitchen cupboard that will fit in 4.2 metres.

Width of 1 cupboard = 60 cm

Width of x cupboards = 60x cm

We know that, 1 m = 100 cm.

Width of a kitchen = 4.2 metres

                              = 4.2×100 cm

                              = 420 cm

Now, the width of the x cupboards is equal to width of the kitchen.

60x=420

x=\dfrac{420}{60}

x=7

Therefore, the number of kitchen cupboard that will fit in 4.2 metres is 7.

dlinn [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio is an expression that shows the relationship between two items in terms of quantity. It shows how much of one item can be found in another.

Simon used 3 pears and 9 apples to make a fruit salad.

This is expressed in terms of quantity.

The ratio of the number of pears which simon used to the number of apples which simon used will be

Number of pears which simon used ÷ the number of apples which simon used.

The ratio is 3/9.

Simplifying further to its lowest term,

It becomes 1/3

This is done by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3

Assign two variables for each problem, and write the equations. Do not solve.
Xelga [282]
Call the number of trumpet players "T" and the number of horn players "H".

We can use the given information to set up equations:

1."<span>the number of trumpet players is 4 times the number of French horn players"
T=4H

2. "</span><span>There are 35 trumpet and French horn players in the band."
T+H=35

If you were asked to solve you could now do it by substitution:
4H+H=35
5H=35
H=7
T=4H
T=4(7)
T=28</span>
