In a scale drawing, a building has a length of 15 cm. The actual length of the building is 37.5 feet. Whats the scale of the dra

Feliz [49]

Answer:

$\frac{15}{37.5}\ \frac{cm}{ft}$

or

$1.31:100$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale of the drawing is equal to divide the length of a building in the scale drawing by the actual length of a building

so

$\frac{15}{37.5}\ \frac{cm}{ft}$

That means

15 cm in the drawing represent 37.5 ft in the actual

Remember that

$1\ ft=30.48\ cm$

Convert 15 cm to ft

divide by 30.48

$15\ cm=15/30.48\ ft$

substitute

$\frac{15}{37.5}\ \frac{cm}{ft}=\frac{(15/30.48)}{37.5}=\frac{0.0131}{1}$

or

$1.31:100$

That means

1.31 units in the drawing represent 100 units in the actual

Which inequality is true? 1.5 greater-than 2 and one-half

Travka [436]

The inequality negative 3 and one-half greater-than negative 4.5 or -3.5 > -4.5 is true.

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

It is defined as the expression in mathematics in which both sides are not equal they have mathematical signs either less than or greater than known as inequality.

We have inequalities given:

$1.5 > 2\dfrac{1}{2}$

or

1.5 > 2.5 (false)

1/2 > 0.5

0.5 > 0.5 (false)

-2.5 > -1.5 (false)

$-3 \dfrac{1}{2} > -4.5$

-3.5 > -4.5 (true)

Thus, the inequality negative 3 and one-half greater-than negative 4.5 or -3.5 > -4.5 is true.

Can someone plz help me with this!

Answer:

(arranged from top to bottom)

System #3, where x=6

System #1, where x=4

System #7, where x=3

System #5, where x=2

System #2, where x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

System #1: x=4

$2x+y=10\\x-3y=-2$

To solve, start by isolating your first equation for y.

$2x+y=10\\y=-2x+10$

Now, plug this value of y into your second equation.

$x-3(-2x+10)=-2\\x+6x-30=-2\\7x=28\\x=4$

System #2: x=1

$x+2y=5\\2x+y=4$

Isolate your second equation for y.

$2x+y=4\\y=-2x+4$

Plug this value of y into your first equation.

$x+2(-2x+4)=5\\x+(-4x)+8=5\\x-4x+8=5\\-3x=-3\\x=1$

System #3: x=6

$5x+y=33\\x=18-4y$

Isolate your first equation for y.

$5x+y=33\\y=-5x+33$

Plug this value of y into your second equation.

$x=18-4(-5x+33)\\x=18+20x-132\\-19x=-114\\x=6$

System #4: all real numbers (not included in your diagram)

$y=13-2x\\8x+4y=52$

Plug your value of y into your second equation.

$8x+4(13-2x)=52\\8x+52-8x=52\\0=0$

<em>all real numbers are solutions</em>

System #5: x=2

$x+3y=5\\6x-y=11$

Isolate your second equation for y.

$6x-y=11\\-y=-6x+11\\y=6x-11$

Plug in your value of y to your first equation.

$x+3(6x-11)=5\\x+18x-33=5\\19x=38\\x=2$

System #6: no solution (not included in your diagram)

$2x+y=10\\-6x-3y=-2$

Isolate your first equation for y.

$2x+y=10\\y=-2x+10$

Plug your value of y into your second equation.

$-6x-3(-2x+10)=-2\\-6x+6x-30=-2\\-30=-2$

<em>no solution</em>

System #7: x=3

$y=10+x\\2x+3y=45$

Plug your value of y into your second equation.

$2x+3(10+x)=45\\2x+30+3x=45\\5x=15\\x=3$
