An architect makes a model of a new house. The model shows a tile patio in the backyard. In the​ model, each tile has length 1/4

in. and width 1/6 in. The actual tiles have length 1/6 ft and width 1/9 ft.
What is the ratio of the length of a tile in the model to the length of an actual​ tile? What is the ratio of the area of a tile in the model to the area of an actual​ tile

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The model is a tile with length 1/4 in. and width 1/6 in while the actual tile has length 1/6 ft. and width 1/9 ft.

Firstly we have to convert the model length and width from inches to feet.

1 feet = 12 inches

model length =  1/4 in. = 1/4 in * (1/12) ft./in = 1/48 ft.

model width =  1/6 in. = 1/6 in * (1/12) ft./in = 1/72 ft.

Therefore:

Ratio of model length to actual length of tile = (1/48 ft.) / (1/6 ft.) = 1 / 8

Ratio of model length to actual length of tile = (1/72 ft.) / (1/9 ft.) = 1 / 8

Area of model tile = length * width = 1/48 ft. * 1/72 ft. = 1/3456 ft²

Area of actual tile = length * width = 1/6 ft. * 1/9 ft. = 1/54 ft²

Ratio of model area to actual area of tile = (1/3456 ft²) / (1/54 ft²) = 1 / 64

Rearrange the equation 5x-3y+9=0 from standard form to slope/y-intercept form.
lions [1.4K]
Y=Mx+B -> slope intercept form

The answer would be -3y=-5x-9
Divide the -3 on both sides and you get
y=5/3x+3

Factor out the greatest common factor <br>-5x^2 - 5x^3 - 15x^4
vaieri [72.5K]
Our answer is -5x^{2} (3x^{2} +x+1)

Our greatest common factor, or GCF, is -5x^{2}, so when we factor is out, our divide each term by -5x^{2}, we get our answer. To check this, we can multiply the -5x^{2} back across the parenthesis and see if we get the same result as our initial question.

Hope this helped! :))

Numerical value of cosh(ln5)
strojnjashka [21]
\cosh x=\dfrac{e^x+e^{-x}}2

So

\cosh(\ln 5)=\dfrac{e^{\ln5}+e^{-\ln5}}2=\dfrac{5+\frac15}2=\dfrac{13}5
