answer: 22

15/7.5 = x/11

cross multiply

7.5x = 165

divide by 7.5 on both sides to get the x alone

7.5x/7.5 = 165/7.5

x = 22

the tree is 22 feet

sorry if it’s wrong

A biologist studied the populations of common guppies and Endler's guppies over a 6-year period. the biologist modeled the popul
Mice21 [21]
We can say that total number of guppies would simply be the sum of two polynomials.
To get our answers we need to add those two polynomials. We add polynomials by adding their like terms. Like terms are those that have the same exponent.
3.1x^2+6x+0.3+4.2x^2-5.2x+1=\\=(3.1x^2+4.2x^2)+(6x-5.2x)+(0.3+1)=\\
=7.3x^2+0.8x+1.3
So the total amount of guppies would be modeled using this polynomial:
7.3x^2+0.8x+1.3

On a scale drawing, a helicopter is 2.3 feet long. The scale on the drawing shows a ratio of 1 foot to 10 feet. What is the actu
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The actual length of the helicopter is <u>23 feet</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

On a scale drawing, a helicopter is 2.3 feet long.

The scale on the drawing shows a ratio of 1 foot to 10 feet.

Now, to find the actual length of the helicopter.

Let the actual length of helicopter be x.

On scale drawing length of helicopter = 2.3 feet.

The scale on the drawing shows a ratio = 1:10.

Now, as ratios are given so by setting proportion we solve it:

\frac{2.3}{x} =\frac{1}{10}

<em>By cross multiplying we get:</em>

⇒ 2.3\times 10=x

⇒ 23=x

⇒ x=23\ feet.

Therefore, the actual length of the helicopter is 23 feet.
