Answer:

A scale drawing or floor plan is a representation of an actual object or space drawn in two-dimensions. For a floor plan, you can imagine that you are directly above the building looking down. The lines represent the walls of the building, and the space in between the lines represents the floor.

In order to find the actual dimensions from a floor plan, you can set up and solve a proportion. The scale given in the drawing is the first ratio. The unknown length and the scale length is the second ratio.

Let’s look at an example.

The floor plan below shows several classrooms at Craig’s school. The length of Classroom 2 in the floor plan is 2 inches. What is the actual length, in feet, of Classroom 2?

First, set up a proportion. The scale in the drawing says that

12′′=3′

, therefore the proportion is:

0.5 inches3 feet

Next, write the second ratio. You know the scale length is 2 inches. The unknown length is

x

. Make sure that the second ratio follows the form of the first ratio: inches over feet.

0.5 inches3 feet=2 inchesx feetThen, cross-multiply.

0.530.5x0.5x===2x2×36Then, divide both sides by 0.5 to solve for

x

.

0.5x0.5x0.5x===660.512The answer is 12.

The actual length of the classroom is 12 feet.

Answer:

  x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of distances from the intersection of secants to the near and far intersections with the circle are the same. For a tangent, the near and far points of intersection with the circle are the same. This relation tells us ...

  (2√3)(2√3) = x(x +4)

  12 = x² +4x

  16 = x² +4x +4 . . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient to complete the square

  4² = (x +2)² . . . . . . . . write as squares

  4 = x +2 . . . . . . . . . . positive square root

  2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If you believe x to be an integer, you can look for factors of 12 that differ by 4.

  12 = 1×12 = 2×6 = 3×4

The factors 2 and 6 differ by 4, so x=2 and x+4=6.

the table shows the cost of the daycare for Lucy's dog this week her dog went 3 full days of day care and 2 half days of day car
drek231 [11]

An expression for the total cost of the daycare for Lucy's dog this week is T = 3F + 2H and the total cost is equal to $114.

<h3>How to write an expression for the total cost?</h3>

In this exercise, you're required to write an expression for the total cost of the daycare for Lucy's dog this week. Thus, we would assign a variable to the cost for full-day and half-day day care as follows:

  • Let the cost for full-day be F.
  • Let the cost for half-day be H.
  • Let total cost be T.

Thus, the total cost of the daycare is given by:

T = 3F + 2H

Evaluating the expression, we have:

T = 3(28) + 2(15)

T = 84 + 30

T = $114.

What is the approximate area of the pizza
Dovator [93]
If you have several different sized pizzas, you can compare their areas. So the area of a pizza is the length of the crust (circumference) divided by two times the distance from the edge to the middle (radius). Mathematicians use a special number called pi to calculate the circumference of a circle.
