I'm sorry if I get this wrong, but there isn't enough evidence.

If we think about the shorter side being 4.2 cm, then just divide 33.6 by 4.2 to give it a ratio. 33.6 / 4.2 is 8. The ratio of the scale drawing to the actual playground would be 1 : 8.

The longer side is 10.5, so just multiply that by 8. You'd get 84 meters. The only part left is getting the area.

Multiply 84 x 33.6 and you'd get 2822.4

The answer would be 2,822.4 squared.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

here's a little trick, add a zero to make both numbers the same.

it's doesn't change the value.

so .27 and .3 become .27 and .30

and .30 is greater

Heidi solved the equation 3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4). Her steps are below: 3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x – 20 3x + 14 = 5x – 18 14 = 2x

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

Step 1: distributive property

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

Step 2: collect like terms

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

Step 3: Addition property of equality

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

3x + 14 + 18 = 5x - 18 + 18

3x + 32 = 5x

Step 4: subtraction property of equality

3x + 32 - 3x = 5x - 3x

32 = 2x

Step 5: division property of equality

32 = 2x

32/2 = 2x/2

16 = x

x = 16

The volume of a sphere is 2 comma 143.57 m cubed. To the nearest meter, what is the radius of the sphere? Use 3.14 for pi.

miskamm [114]

$\bf \textit{volume of a sphere}\\\\ V=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ \cline{1-1} V=2,143.57 \end{cases}\implies 2143.57=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}\implies 6430.71=4\pi r^3 \\\\\\ \cfrac{6430.71}{4\pi }=r^3\implies \sqrt[3]{\cfrac{6430.71}{4\pi }}=r\implies \stackrel{\pi =3.14}{7.9999956 \approx r}\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{8=r}$
