Answer:

The length of the actual bakery is 936 inches or 78 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told:

Janet measured a shopping center and made a scale drawing. The scale she used was 1 inch : 6 feet.

Let both the measurement of the shopping center and scale drawing be written in feet

1 foot = 12 inches

6 foot = x

Cross Multiply

x = 6 × 12 inches

x = 72 inches

Hence, the scale drawing =

Scale drawing : shopping center

1 inch = 72 inches

A bakery in the shopping center is 13 inches in the drawing. How long is the actual bakery?

This is calculated as:

1 inch = 72 inches

13 inches = x inches

Cross Multiply

x = 13 × 72 inches

x = 936 inches

The length of the shopping center = 936 inches

We convert back to feet

= 12 inches = 1foot

936 inches = x

Cross Multiply

12x = 936 × 1

x = 936/12

x = 78 feet

Therefore the length of the actual bakery is 936 inches or 78 feet

What is the vertex of this equation y = -x^2+ 3
Svetach [21]

Answer: (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation: To find the x-value of the vertex for any quadratic, you can use the formula -b/2a. In this case, there is no clear b, but you can think of it like y=-x^2 +0x+3 so in the form ax^2 + bx +c, b=0. Therefore the x-value is 0/ -2, or 0. So we know the vertex is (0, y). To find y, just plug 0 into the original equation for x, getting you y=0+3, so y=3, so the vertex is (0,3)
