Answer:
<em>(a) 3 inches
</em>
<em>(b) Her scale model drawing WILL fit on the piece of paper 8.5 by 7 inches</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Scaling
</u>
We use scales to represent realities in reduced spaces. In the case of lengths or surfaces, the scale allows us to draw the shapes in normal sheets of paper.
(a)
Kelly's rock garden has a length of 6 feet. She uses a 1 inch:2 feet scale. this means that the model length is
6 feet*1 inch/2 feet = 3 inches
(b)
The width of the model is 5 inches, keeping the same scale it means the real length is
5 inches * 2 feet / 1 inch = 10 feet
The model will have 3 inches by 5 inches, it perfectly fits on any regular piece of paper
L x w x h = volume
volume = 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 cm ^ 3
I cannot see the text. If you take another picture zoomed in I will answer it.
The answer is N=13(x+12), where x represents the amount of pounds Steven's boxes weighed and N represents the total number of pounds Nathan lifted.
