Answer:  3 cm

Work Shown:

(1 cm)/(5 m) = (x cm)/(15 m)

1/5 = x/15

1*15 = 5*x ... cross multiply

15 = 5x

5x = 15

x = 15/5

x = 3

The model is 3 cm tall.

Answer:

C) 3cm

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a ratio, and ratios always have to be constant meaning there is a pattern. for 15 meters to become 5 what must happen? dividing by 3.

1:5 ?:15 you dont know the ? but you do know what it becomes after divided by 3. so multiply 1 by 3 to do the reverse.

What value of X makes the equation -5x-(-7-4x)=-2(3x-4) true?
rjkz [21]

Answer: x= \frac{1}{5} Makes It True

Explantion: step 1: simplify both sides of the equation. −5x−(−7−4x)=−2(3x−4) −5x+−1(−7−4x)=−2(3x−4)(distribute the negative sign) −5x+(−1)(−7)+−1(−4x)=−2(3x−4) −5x+7+4x=−2(3x−4) −5x+7+4x=(−2)(3x)+(−2)(−4)(distribute) −5x+7+4x=−6x+8 (−5x+4x)+(7)=−6x+8(combine like terms) −x+7=−6x+8 −x+7=−6x+8 step 2: add 6x to both sides. −x+7+6x=−6x+8+6x 5x+7=8 step 3: subtract 7 from both sides. 5x+7−7=8−7 5x=1

You go shopping and spend $264 on shirts and shorts. You purchase a total of 9 items. Each shirt costs $24 and each pair of shor
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

3 shirts, 6 shorts

Step-by-step explanation:

A total of $264 is spent during shopping on shirts and shorts

Each shirt costs $24

Each shorts cost $32

Therefore the quantity of shirts and shorts bought can be calculated as follows

24× 3= 72

32×6= 192

192+72= 264

Hence 3 shirts and 6 shorts were bought

What is the range of F(x)=72x-x^2
Marianna [84]

Answer:

Range of F(x) = (-∞ ,72).

Step-by-step explanation:

Range of the function F(x) means the set of values which are taken by the function along its domain.

F(x) = 72 - x^{2}

Since coefficient of x^{2} is negative on the right side ,

Maximum value of F(x) will come at x = 0.

Which is, F(0) = 72.

Now, as x increases , F(x) decreases , when x will reach infinity ,

F(x) will be reaching negative of infinity .

Thus, F(x) is ranging from -∞ to 72 .

Range of F(x) = (-∞ ,72).
