The answer is 16 cm (or 0.16 m).

The scale is the ratio of the model to the real thing.
So, in the scale 1:50, the model is 1, while the real thing is 50.
Now, just make a proportion:
the model : the real thing = the model dimension : the real thing dimension
1 : 50 = x : 8m

From here:
x = 8m * 1 / 50 = 0.16 m = 0.16 * 100 cm = 16 cm.

What isn't the bets approximation for the area of this circle labeled 8 inches use3.14 to approximate pi

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

50.272 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Circles are described using the diameter parameter

Diameter of the circle is 8 inches

radius = 4 inche= d/2

Step two:

The area of the circle is

A= πr^2

A= 3.142*4^2

A=3.142*16

A=50.272 in^2

Find the common ratio and an explicit form in each of the following geometric sequences.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

The explicit form is $a_{n}=162(2/3)^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit form of a geometric sequence is given by:

$a_{n}=ar^{n-1}$

where an is the nth term, a is the first term of the sequence and r is the common ratio.

In this case:

a=162

The value of the common ratio is obtained by dividing one term by the previous term.

For the first and second terms:

108/162=2/3

For the second and third terms (In order to prove that 2/3 is the common ratio)

72/108=2/3

Therefore:

r=2/3

Replacing a and r in the formula:

$a_{n}=162(2/3)^{n-1}$
