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

How do you simplify a fraction?
attashe74 [19]
You simplify a fraction by finding it's greatest common factor. A greatest common factor is what both numbers are divisible by. If they can both be divided by two, then you've simplified them a little bit. Keep going until you can't find a common number that can be divided by the two, and you've got your simplified fraction. For example, 10/5 = 1/2 since both 10 and 5 is divisible by 5.

Can someone help me?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

I'm not sure from my answer but I'm going to try

A =  { a^2  -  4  = 0 }

A = { a^2  = 0+ 4 }

A = { a^2  = 4}

Take root of both sides

A = {a = 2}

A = {2}

B = { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

C = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7}

i) A\B

= {2} \ {-2,-1,0,1,2}

= ⌀ ( "null set" )

ii) (A\B) \C

= ( {2} \ {-2,-1,0,1,2} ) \ C

= ⌀ \ C

= ⌀ \ { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7}

= ⌀ ( "null set" )

iii) (A ∪ B) \ C

= ( { 2 } ∪ { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2} ) \ C

= { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2} \C

= { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2} \ { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7}

= { -2, -1, 0 }

iv) ( A\B) ∩ ( A\C)

= (  { 2 } \ {-2,-1,0,1,2} ) ∩ ( { 2 } \ { { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,7} )

= ⌀ ∩ ⌀

= ⌀

v) ( A ∩ B ) \ C

= ( { 2 }  ∩  { -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 } ) \ C

= { 2 } \ { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 }

= ⌀ "null set"

Which of the following is a perfect square trinomial?
shutvik [7]

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a look at what happens when squaring either of these...

(ax-by)^2=(ax-by)(ax-by)=a^2x^2-2abxy+b^2y^2\\\\(ax+by)^2=(ax+by)(ax+by)=a^2x^2+2abxy+b^2y^2\\

Notice a couple of patterns.

1.  The last term has a positive coefficient.  That rules out answer choices C and D.

2.  The coefficient of the middle term is either +2ab \text{ or } -2ab .  So what are <em>a</em>  and <em>b</em>?  <em>a</em> is the square root of the x^2 term and <em>b</em> is the square root of the y^2 term.

25x^2 \Rightarrow a=5\\\\9y^2 \Rightarrow b=3\\\\ab=15\\\\2ab=30

The middle coefficient needs to be either +30 or -30.  The answer is choice A.
