Answer:
<u>10 ft.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Scale</u> ⇒ 1 in. : 2 ft.
- 1 in. : 2ft. = 5 in. : x ft. [x is the width of the real statue]
- 1/2 = 5/x
- x = 5 × 2
- x = <u>10 ft</u>.
Answer:
x = 1 or x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the integers:
8 abs(x + 2) - 6 = 5 abs(x + 2) + 3
Subtract 5 abs(x + 2) - 6 from both sides:
3 abs(x + 2) = 9
Divide both sides by 3:
abs(x + 2) = 3
Split the equation into two possible cases:
x + 2 = 3 or x + 2 = -3
Subtract 2 from both sides:
x = 1 or x + 2 = -3
Subtract 2 from both sides:
Answer: x = 1 or x = -5
