Let x represent the height of the model.
We have been given that a construction company built a scale model of a building. The model was built using a scale of 3 inches = 32 feet. We are asked to find the height of the model, if the building is expected to be 200 feet tall.
We will use proportions to solve our given problem as:
Upon substituting our given values, we will get:
Therefore, the model will be 18.75 inches tall.
Answer:
the angles which occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others. If the two lines are parallel, the corresponding angles are equal
Step-by-step explanation:
Just do what i put up there
Answer:
$2
Step-by-step explanation:
To use a percent you must change it to a decimal.
8% is .08
To find 8% of 25, we use multiplication.
.08 × 25
= 2
In case you cannot use a calculator or you want to be very quick about this, or just do a simple check... you can actually reverse the number (money, amount, etc) and the percent.
25% of 8 is not bad for doing mental math. 25% is a quarter, or 1/4 of 8 which again is 2.
We are told to use simple interest rate. Formula for this is:
Where:
A= total accumulated amount (principal + interest)
P= principal
r= yearly percentage rate
t= number of years
We need to save $19500 for the first year at a college. This is the amount we will have at the account after five years. In our case this is A.
Principal is the amount we need to put into savings to get the total amount needed. In our case this is P.
Yearly percentage rate is the percentage by which our savings increase at the end of a year. In our case this is r.
t is number of years that we are holding our money on the bank account.
To solve this problem we will assume that we are putting same amount each month on the bank account.
We are given:
A=$19500
P=?
r=1.5%
t=5 years
First step is to transform r into decimal number:
Now we get back to our formula and we solve it for P:
We insert numbers and we get our principal:
We need to put $18139.53 into savings to get required amount after 5 years or 5*12=60months. Assuming that we put same amount each month into savings we need to put
This is our solution for this problem. This is closest to the amount we would need to put in real life. In real life we would earn interest onto interest and our monthly amount would be smaller.
Answer:2:3
Step-by-step explanation:
if you were to simplify the ratio just like you would a fraction you would get 2:3
