Answer:
1.; 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1. Calculate the area of the floor
If the area A₁ of a square floor on the scale drawing is 100 cm², the length of a side is 10 cm.
The side length l of the actual floor is
l = 10 cm × (2 ft/1 cm) = 20 ft
The area A₂ of the floor is
A = l² = (20 ft)² =
Step 2. Calculate the area ratios
We must express both areas in the same units.
Let's express the area of the room in square centimetres.
l = 20 ft × (12 in/1 ft) = 240 in
l = 240 in × (2.54 cm/1 in) = 609.6 cm
A₂ = l² = (609.6 cm)² = 371 612 cm²
The area A₁ on the scale drawing is 100 cm².
The ratio of the areas is
The ratio of the area in the drawing to the actual area is
Answer:
x 19/6
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply both sides by 6 (the LCM of 6,3)
5/2 + 3-x <= 2(x-2)
2. Simplify 5/2+3-x to 11/2-x
11/2 - x<=2 (x-2)
3. Expand.
11/2-x<= 2x-4
4. Add x to both sides.
11/2<= 2x-4+x
5. Simplify 2x-4+x to 3x-4.
11/2<=3x-4
6. Add 4 to both sides.
11/2+4<=3x
7. Simplify 11/2+4 to 19/2
19/2<=3x
8. Divide both sides by 3
19/2 /3 <=x
9. Simplify 19/2 /3 to 19/2*3
19/2*3<=x
10. Simplify 2*3 to 6
19/6<=x
11. Switch sides.
x>= 19/6
Hope this helps!
