Jayla= x
keisha= x+ 3
melanie= x + 6

to solve:
42= x + x + 3 + x + 6
42= 3x + 9
-9 -9
33=3x
———-
3

x=11

therefore
jayla is 11
keisha is 14
melanie is 17

Cesar is making a model of the Eiffel Tower. The height of the tower is 984 feet, and Cesar wants to make a 1.5-foot
n200080 [17]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets see how many feet of the original Eiffel tower (O) are represented in 1 foot of Caesar's tower model (M). We know that 1.5 foot is equal to 984 feet of the original, so we can say:

1.5 M = 984 O, this is our equivalence.

Now divide both sides by 1.5

1.5 M / 1.5 = 984 O / 1.5

1 M = 656 O

So, 1 foot of Cesar's Model is 684 feet of the original tower. We also know that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches, so we can say that 12 inches of Cesar Model (12 m) are equivalent to 656 feet of the original tower. So:

12 m = 656 O

If we divide both sides by 12:

m = 656/12 O

m = 56.67

So, 1 inch in Cesar's model represent 56.67 feet of the original Eiffel Tower.

Lets verify our result by multiplying 56.67 by 12 to get 1 feet and then by 1.5 to get the measure of the model:

56.67*12*1.5 = 984 feet, which is the height of the Eiffel tower.

Scale: 1 inch = 56.67 feet

How √225 and √223 are different by their nature ??
denis23 [38]
Here, we know, √225 = 25 (perfect squared)
whereas √223 is not a perfect squared.

So, √225 would be "Rational" whereas √223 would be "Irrational" by the nature.

Hope this helps!
