Answer:

The actual building is 13.3 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the actual height be 'x'.

Given that on a scale drawing with a scale of 1/20, the height of the building is 8 inches, the expression becomes

(1/20) × x = 8

x = 20 × 8 = 160 inches

We know that

  • 1 foot = 12 inches

Thus,

160 inches = 160/12 ≈ 13.3 feet

Therefore, the actual building is 13.3 feet tall.

An oil refinery is located on the north bank of a straight river that is 2 km wide. A pipeline is to be constructed from the ref
Deffense [45]
To minimize the cost, we take the straight distance from the refinery to the other side of the river as 2 km. Also, the 7 km will be the distance that has to be traveled by the pipeline in land. The total cost, C, is therefore,
               total cost =   (2 km)($800,000/km) + (7 km)($400,000 /km)
                    total cost = $4,400,000
Thus, the total cost of the pipeline is approximately $4,400,000.00.

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

B. w = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know, in a parallelogram length of opposite sides are equal.

so, AD = BC

⇒ 4w - 5 = 7w - 17

⇒ 12 = 3w

⇒ w = 4
