Answer:

<em>The length of the actual ship is 125 meters.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling</u>

Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which is basically multiplying or dividing by a constant factor. We use scaling for example, when representing geographic locations on a map.

A model ship is built to a scale of 1 cm: 5 m. This means that each centimeter of the model represents an actual length of 5 m.

The length of the model is 25 cm, thus the real ship has a length of 25*5 = 125 m.

The length of the actual ship is 125 meters.

Lauren says that -3.5 is greater than -3 1/3. Do you agree? Explain.
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

-3\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

-3.5 means -(3 + \frac{1}{2})

In other words, -3.5 = -3\frac{1}{2}

When we draw two numbers -3\frac{1}{3} and -3\frac{1}{2} on a number line, -3\frac{1}{2} comes first from left to right.

We know that all the numbers on a number line from left to right are in increasing order.

Therefore, -3\frac{1}{2} is smaller than -3\frac{1}{3}.

-3\frac{1}{2}

Lauren is not correct.

Graph + &gt; -1.
andrew-mc [135]

You have the right idea but the endpoint is at the wrong location. Instead, the green dot should go at -1. The shading is to the right. We use a closed filled in circle here (instead of an open hole) to tell the reader "include the endpoint". So -1 is part of the solution set.

In short, the graph consists of a closed filled in circle at -1 with shading to the right. This visually describes all values that are larger than -1, or equal to -1.

Find the value of x.
UNO [17]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Intersecting Chords Theorem: ab = cd

Step 1: Label our variables

<em>a</em> = x

<em>b</em> = x - 11

<em>c</em> = x - 8

<em>d</em> = x - 5

Step 2: Plug into theorem

x(x - 11) = (x - 5)(x - 8)

Step 3: Solve for <em>x</em>

x² - 11x = x² - 8x - 5x + 40

x² - 11x = x² - 13x + 40

-11x = -13x + 40

2x = 40

x = 20
