Answer:
x = 3.87
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the right angle altitude theorem, we know that all three triangles are congruent, so the lengths of corresponding sides of the triangles are in proportion..
AD/DB = DB/DC
15/x = x/1
x² = 15
x = √15
x = 3.87
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
As a part of city building refurbishment project, architects have constructed a scale model of several city builidings to present to the city commission for approval. The scale of the model is 1 inch = 9 feet.
The model includes a new park in the center of the city. If the dimensions of the park in the model are 9 inches by 17 inches, what are the actual dimensions of the park?
Answer: 81 feet by 153 feet
Step-by-step explanation: <u>Unit</u> <u>Scale</u> is a ratio comparing actual dimensions of an object to the dimensions of model representing the actual object.
In the refurbishment project, the unit scale is given by
1 inch = 9 feet
So, the dimensions of the new park in actual dimensions would be
1 inch = 9 feet
9 inches = x
x = 9.9
x = 81 feet
1 inch = 9 feet
17 inches = y
y = 17.9
y = 153 feet
The actual dimensions of the new park are 81 feet by 153 feet.
Yes it is, if you look on a number line, the -34 is farther left than the -9
Answer:
c + ab
Step-by-step explanation:
The way an expression is written is the given you have presented to us.
The commutative law of addition would turn it around as
c + ab.
It just means change the order when adding. Not all systems allow this. It matters which way you put it in some systems.
You would start off by finding the base, which is 18*12. That equals 216 meters squared, you multiply that by 2 to get the surface area of your 2 bases. That equals 432 meters squared. To find the surface area of the sides (on the left and right side), you would use the equation length times height. To plug in the numbers, you use 12*4, that is 48 meters squared. There are 2 sides, so multiply by 2, to get 96 meters squared. To find the last side, you take length times width, plug in the numbers. Those numbers are 4*18, which equals 72 meters squared. Once again, there are two sides, so you multiply by 2, to get 144 meters squared. Next, as the final step, you add up all of the final numbers. They are: 432+96+144 which equals 672 meters squared.
Your final answer is 672 meters squared.
I hope this helps!
