Answer:

The ratio is \frac{1}{492}

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

1 ft=12 in

The Eiffel Tower is 984 feet

Convert to inches

984 ft=984*12=11,808 in

<em>Find the ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual Eiffel Tower</em>

The height of the model is 24 in

The height of the actual Eiffel Tower is 11,808 in

the ratio is equal to

\frac{24}{11,808}=\frac{1}{492}

That means----> The height of the actual Eiffel Tower is 492 times greater than the height of the model

She has 245 Chocolate Twisters.

she puts 9 Chocolate Twisters in each treat bag,

1 bag hold 9 chocolates

9 chocolates = 1 bag

So 245 chocolates in how many bags

Divide 245 by 9

use long division

                       2 7 -----------> Quotient

                   ------------------------------------

          9           245

                        18                           (subtract it)

                   -------------------------

                          65

                          63              (subtract it)

Angle P and angle Q are supplementary. Angle P measures 5x and angle Q measures 3x – 12. Find the measure of angle P.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Two angles are called supplementary angles if the sum of two angles is 180 degrees and they form a linear pair.

Here we are given than angle P and angle Q are supplementary angles.

Sum of angle P and angle Q will be 180.

Angle P measures 5x and angle Q measures 3x – 12

Adding the two angles,

5x+(3x-12) =180

8x-12=180

8x=180+12

8x=192

x=24

Angle P = 5x

Angle P =5*24 =120

Answer: Angle P is 120 degrees.

7. Mahmoud runs to a marker and back in 15 minutes. His speed on
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

2000 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question

Total time = 15 minutes

Converting minutes to seconds

1 minute = 60 sec

15 minutes = x

Cross Multiply

x = 60 × 15 = 900 seconds

Hence, 900 seconds = Total time

Total time = Time to the marker + Time from the marker

From the question, we are given the Speed to the marker = 5 m/s

Speed from the marker = 4 m/s

Time = Distance/speed

Let the distance be represented by x

Hence:

x/4 + x/5 =900

Multiply all through equation by Lowest Common Denominator = 20

5x + 4x= 900×20

9x = 900 ×20

Divide both sides by 9

9x/9 = 900 × 20/9

x = 2000 meters

Therefore, the total distance to the marker = 2000 meters
