The scale of a room in a blueprint is 3in:5ft. A wall in the same blueprint is 18in. Plzzz complete table
postnew [5]

we know that

[scale]=[blueprint]/[actual]-------> [actual]=[blueprint]/[scale]

[scale]=3/5 in/ft

for [wall blueprint]=18 in

[wall actual]=[wall blueprint]/[scale]-------> 18/(3/5)----> 30 ft

Part A)

the actual wall is 30 ft  long

Part B) window has actual width of 2.5 ft

[ window blueprint]=[scale]*[actual window]-----> (3/5)*2.5----> 1.5 in

the width of the window in the blueprint is 1.5 in

Part C) Complete the table

For [blueprint length]=4 in

[actual length]=[blueprint length]/[scale]-------> 4/(3/5)----> 20/3 ft

For [blueprint length]=5 in

[actual length]=[blueprint length]/[scale]-------> 5/(3/5)----> 25/3 ft

For [blueprint length]=6 in

[actual length]=[blueprint length]/[scale]-------> 6/(3/5)----> 30/3=10 ft

For [blueprint length]=7 in

[actual length]=[blueprint length]/[scale]-------> 7/(3/5)----> 35/3 ft

For [actual length]=6 ft

[blueprint length]=[actual length]*[scale]-------> 6*(3/5)----> 18/5 in

For [actual length]=7 ft

[blueprint length]=[actual length]*[scale]-------> 7*(3/5)----> 21/5 in

For [actual length]=8 ft

[blueprint length]=[actual length]*[scale]-------> 8*(3/5)----> 24/5 in

For [actual length]=9 ft

[blueprint length]=[actual length]*[scale]-------> 9*(3/5)----> 27/5 in

The sales tax on a one-half-carat diamond ring is $76. Find the purchase price of the ring (before tax) of the sales tax rate is
NISA [10]
So.. hmmm if we take "x" to be the 100% sale price before tax, $76 is really 9.5% of that

thus \bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
76&9.5\\
x&100
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{76}{x}=\cfrac{9.5}{100}

solve for "x"

Find the measure of the missing angle.<br> a<br> 66°
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

24°

Step-by-step explanation:

the total angle, made up from both a and 66°, is a mini-square, as you can see. this represents a right angle of 90°

thus, a and 66° combine to make 90°

a + 66° = 90°

subtract 66 from both sides to get a

a = 24°
