Scale factor is used by architects or engineers to transfer their prototype idea to large-scale use. If the volume of a prism is 20, you need to multiply its dimensions with a scale factor to find the new volume which is 540. For example, if the volume is doubled, this means you used a scale factor of 2. Hence, you just have to divide the new volume by the smaller volume.
Scale factor = 540/20
Scale factor = 27
Hi there!!
First, we are going to find the improper fraction of each mixed number.
10 1/3 >>>>> 10*3+1=31 31/3
2 2/3 >>>>> 2*3+2=8. 8/3
5 1/3 >>>>>> 5*3+1 = 16. 16/3
TO find the reciprocal, we switch the numerator with the denominator.
31/3 changes to 3/31, 8/3 changes to 3/8, and finally 16/3 changes to 3/16.
Your answer is:
3/31
3/8
3/16
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions:)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
Edges of 8 feet, 4 feet, and 1/2 foot
Generally the volume V_p of the right rectangular prism is mathematically represented as
Generally volume of the cube V_c is mathematically given as
Therefore total number of cubes is given as
100,000 30,000 7,000
the first one i believe
9514 1404 393
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
You solve a linear equation by putting the variable on one side of the equal sign and a constant on the other side. Here, variables and constants are on both sides of the equal sign, so you need to separate them.
The basic idea is that you add the opposite of any term you don't want. Whenever you perform any operation (like "add"), <em>you must do it to both sides of the equation</em>.
We observe that x-terms have coefficients of 10 and 9. We choose to add the opposite of 9x to both sides:
10 -9x -5 = 9x -9x +2
x -5 = 2 . . . . simplify
Now, we still have -5 on the left, where we don't want it. So, we add its opposite (+5) to both sides:
x -5 +5 = 2 +5
x = 7 . . . . simplify
The solution is x = 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If we were to end up with an x-coefficient other than 1, we would divide both sides of the equation by that coefficient. This will leave the x-term with a coefficient of 1.
