Answer: actual length = 45 ft

Explanation:

Scale drawn:

1/2 inch = 5ft

Meaning that if the drawing scale is 0.5 inch then the actual bus would be 5ft.

If the length of the drawn school bus is 4 1/2 inches. We can write:

1/2 = 5
4 1/2 = x

=> x = (5 x 4 1/2)/1/2
Or x = (5 x 4.5)/0.5
x = 22.5/0.5
x = 45

Therefore the actual length of the bus is 45 ft

Find the area of the triangle
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The Area of Δ ABC = 219.13

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The hard part about this problem is finding the area without the height</em>

The formula to do this is Area = \sqrt{S(S-A)(S-B)(S-C)}

A, B, C represent the sides

S represents \frac{1}{2} (A + B + C)

In this equation, we will make the base be A, and the other two sides will be B and C

<u>Sides B and C are the same length</u> because they meet at a 90° angle

Lets plug the numbers into the variables

A = 28

B= 21

C= 21

<u>Remember:</u> S represents  \frac{1}{2}  (A + B + C)

S =  \frac{1}{2} (28 + 21 + 21)

S =  \frac{1}{2} (70)

S = 35

<em>Lets plug the numbers into the Area Formula now!</em>

Area = \sqrt{35(35 - 28)(35 - 21)(35 - 21)}

According to the order of operations, we need to do the calculations in parentheses <u>first</u>

35 - 28 = 7

35 - 21 = 14

35 - 21 = 14

14 x 14 x 7 = 1372

1372 x 35 = 48020

\sqrt{48020} = 219.13

The Area of Δ ABC = 219.13

Please help! thanks!
harina [27]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember how absolute values turn everything inside of it into a positive number? Like |-4|=4 and |4|=4 as well.

Well, it works the same for equations.

When you have an absolute value equation like this, you have to split it into two parts.

The positive version

| d-3.5 | ≤ 1.5

and the negative version

|-(d-3.5)| ≤ 1.5

solve for the value of d in both equation.

<em>Remember that you have to flip the inequality sign when dividing or multiplying by a negative number</em>

I assume you know how to graph the inequality once you get the value for d.

d≤5 and d≥2

so

2 ≤ d ≤ 5

meaning d is between 2 and 5.
