Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Part a) The scale of the new blueprint is $\frac{5}{8} \frac{in}{ft}$

Part b) The width of the living room in the new blueprint is $9.4\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale of the original blueprint is

$\frac{2}{5}\frac{in}{ft}$

and

the width of the living room on the original blueprint is 6 inches

Find the actual width of the living room, using proportion

$\frac{2}{5}\frac{in}{ft}=\frac{6}{x}\frac{in}{ft}\\ \\x=5*6/2\\ \\x=15\ ft$

Find the actual length of the living room, using proportion

$\frac{2}{5}\frac{in}{ft}=\frac{9.6}{x}\frac{in}{ft}\\ \\x=5*9.6/2\\ \\x=24\ ft$

Find the scale of the new blueprint, divide the length of the living room on the new blueprint by the actual length of the living room

$\frac{15}{24} \frac{in}{ft}$

simplify

$\frac{5}{8} \frac{in}{ft}$

Find the width of the living room in the new blueprint, using proportion

$\frac{5}{8}\frac{in}{ft}=\frac{x}{15}\frac{in}{ft}\\ \\x=15*5/8\\ \\x=9.4\ in$

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The volume of solid is 268.08 inches cube.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solid spherical ball has height 8 inches that means the diameter of the sphere is 8 inches. So, the radius will be the half of diameter. Thus, radius is 4 inches.

Now use below formula to find the volume of solid sphere.

$Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{2} \\Volume = \frac{4}{3}\pi (4)^{2} \\Volume = 268.08 \ in^{3}$

Therefore, the volume of solid is 268.08 inches cube.
