Answer: 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pool in the drawing be represented by x.

Since scale drawing of a pool has scale of 1 in :4 ft and the actual pool is 16 ft wide, this can be represented in an equation as:

1/4 = x/16

Cross multiply

4 × x = 1 × 16

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

Therefore, the pool representation in the drawing is 4 inches

The sum of two numbers is 65. The larger number is 5 more than the smaller number. What are the numbers?
ipn [44]

Answer:

30 and 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Put this question into equation form:

Let x be the smaller number, if the larger number is 5 more and the total is 65:

x + 5 + x = 65

2x + 5 = 65

Subtract 5 from both sides

2x + 5 - 5 = 65 - 5

2x = 60

Divide both sides by 2:

2x ÷ 2 = 60 ÷ 2

x = 30

As the larger number is 5 bigger:

30 + 5 = 35

So the two numbers are 30 and 35.

Hope this helps!

the perimeter of a rectangle is 62 feet.if the width of the rectangle is 19ft. what is the length of the rectangle
denis23 [38]
Perimeter = 2(l+w) or 2(length+width)

So far you have the width, which is 19feet. Since you have two sides of the rectangle which are 19 feet, add 19+19=38

Subtract 62-38 to get 24.

You now have the length of both of the sides combined. So you need to divide 24/2 = 12
The length of the rectangle = 12ft.
