Answer:

The area of the room is 432 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use the ratio method to solve the question

∵ The scale drawing of the room is 1 inch: 3 feet

→ That means each 1 inch in the drawing represents 3 feet in real

∵ The drawing is 8 inches long by 6 inches wide

∴ The drawing length of the room = 8 inches

∴ The drawing width of the room = 6 inches

→ By using the ratio method

→  inches  :  feet

→  1            :  3

→  8           :  L

→  6           :  W

→ By using the cross multiplication

∵ 1 × L = 8 × 3

∴ L = 24

∴ The actual length of the room is 24 feet

∵ 1 × W = 6 × 3

∴ W = 18

∴ The actual width of the room is 18 feet

Use the formula of the area of the rectangle to find the area of the room

∵ Area of rectangle = length × width

∴ Area of the room = 24 × 18

∴ Area of the room = 432 feet²

∴ The area of the room is 432 square feet

If a parking lot holds 1,600 cars and fills 3/4 of its spaces, how many spaces are filled?
AnnyKZ [126]

The total space in the parking lot is 1600 cars

It is mentioned that \frac{3}{4} parts of this parking is filled

Now we are required to find what is the three-fourths part of 1600

To find it we multiply \frac{3}{4} times 1600

\frac{3}{4}  X 1600

= \frac{3X1600}{4}

=\frac{4800}{4}

= 1200 cars

Hence 1200 cars fills the three-fourths of the car parking lot that has a capacity of 1600 cars

Write the equation of the circle centered at (3, 5) and tangent to x = -1. I need help pleasse
Annette [7]

Answer:

(x - 3)² + (y - 5)² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the centre and r the radius

given (h, k ) = (3, 5 ) we require to find r

r is the distance from the centre to a point on the circle

given x = - 1 is a tangent the r is the distance between the x- coordinates

r = | 3 - (- 1) | = | 3 + 1 | = | 4 | = 4

then equation of circle is

(x - 3)² + (y - 5)² = 4² , that is

(x - 3)² + (y - 5)² = 16
