If each 6 in. On the scale drawing below equals 3 feet, what is the actual area of the shape in square units?
1 answer:
Answer:
32 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the diagram attached below similar to the one required to complete the question below.
From the diagram,
Actaul Area of a parallelogram (A) = Actual Base(b)× actual heigth(h)
A = bh.......................... Equation 1
From the question,
If each 6 in on the scale drawing equals 3 feet
Given:
base on the scale drawing = 8 in.
Actual base(b) = (8×3)/6 = 4 feet.
Height on the scale drawing = 16 in
Actual height(h) = (16×3)/6 = 8 feet.
Substitute these values into equation 1
A = 4×8
A = 32 ft²
Hence the actual area of the shape is 32 ft²

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
It is easiest to compare the equations when they are written in the same form.
The first set can be written in slope-intercept form.
y = 2x +7
y = 2x +7 . . . . add 2x
These equations are <em>identical</em>, so have infinitely many solutions.
__
The second set can be written in standard form.
y +4x = -5
y +4x = -10
These equations <em>differ only in their constant</em>, so have no solutions.
__
The third set is already written in slope-intercept form. The equations have <em>different slopes</em>, so have exactly one solution.
