Let us take the case of 7 pounds for $8.47 first.
7 pounds of a product costs = 8.47 dollars
Then
1 pound of the same product will cost = (8.47/7) dollars
= 1.21 dollars
Now let us take the case of 9 pounds for $11.07
9 pounds of a product costs = 11.07 dollars
Then
1 pound of the same product will cost = (11.07/9) pounds
= 1.23 dollars
So from the above deductions we can see that 9 pounds for $11.07 is a better buy than 7 pounds for $8.47. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. In future you can use this method for solving similar problems.
This is the concept of scale factor. The linear scale factor is given by:
(height of sculpture)/(height of clothespin)
=20/(5/12)
=48
Given that a woman is 5ft 7 in, the sculpture of this woman would be:
height of sculpture=(scale factor)*(height of the woman)
height of the woman=5 ft 7 inches=5 7/12 ft=67/12 ft
hence the height of the sculpture will be:
67/12×48
=268 ft
Answer: 268 ft
Answer:
z=44/3
Step-by-step
Subtract the numbers 52-12=40
3z-4=40
Add 4 to both sides
3z-4+4=40+4
SImplify
3z=44
Divide both sides by 3
3z/3 = 44/3
z=44/3 or decimal form= 14.66
