 Assuming the life sized dolphin is 12 ft long, what we want to know is what factor do you multiply 12 ft by to get 3.5 inches so converting this to an equation gives: 12*f=3.5 solving for f gives f=3.5/12=.29166...The units on the factor are inches/foot.

        So to get the size if anything linear in the small scale you just multiply it's dimension in the full scale by f.

Answer: $1.45

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by subtracting the change from how much she payed for.

d = dollars | g = goldfish

16d - 0.05d = 15.95d

Then we divide by the goldfish

\frac{15.95d}{11g} = 1.45d

Our answer is 1.45!

Answer:

8 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract $150 from $430 to get $280, the amount if money that Manuel has to earn to reach his goal.

If he is adding $35 to his account each month, then all you have to do is divide the amount you need by the amount you are earning each month to get the number of months until you reach your goal.

$280 divided by $35 is 8, so it would take 8 months for Manuel to reach his goal.
