The pitch of the roof is given by the ratio of the rise to the run of the roof, which is the slope of the rafter

$The \ pitch \ of \ the \ roof \ is \ \mathbf {\dfrac{6}{13}}$

Please find attached the simple <u>diagram of the house</u> with all measurements labeled

The reason the above value for the pitch and the diagram are correct are as follows:

The given parameters are;

Width of the section of the house on which the gable of the roof is to be placed = 50 feet

Length of the over hang on the sides of the roof = 1 foot each

Total span of the roof = 52 feet

Horizontal length of each rafter, the run = 26 feet

The height of the ridge above the top of the frame, the rise = 12 feet

Required:

To find the pitch of the roof

To draw a diagram of the house showing measurements

Solution:

$Pitch = \dfrac{Rise}{Run}$

$Pitch \ (slope) \ of \ roof = \dfrac{12}{26} =\dfrac{6}{13}$

Please find attached the <u>diagram</u> of the house showing the measurements for the roof parameters and the section of the house where the gable roof is to be placed

Joyce baked a cake using 2 3/4 cups of brown sugar and 1 3/4 cups of powdered sugar. How many cups of sugar did she use in her c

BartSMP [9]

So she has used two kinds of sugar, brown and powdered.

She used $2 \frac{3}{4}$ cups of brown sugar and $1 \frac{3}{4}$ cups of powdered sugar: we need to add the two numbers:

$2 \frac{3}{4}$ + $1 \frac{3}{4}$ = 2+1+ $\frac{3}{4}+ \frac{3}{4}$ =3 $\frac{6}{4}=3+1+ \frac{2}{4} =4 \frac{2}{4}=4 \frac{1}{2}=4.5$

so the correct answer is 4.5

A game room has a floor that is 120 feet by 75 feet. A scale drawing of the floor on grid paper uses a scale of 1 unit:5 feet. W

Viktor [21]

I believe to answer this question you would simply divide by 5 for the dimensions to get the size of the scale drawing, and given it is a drawing I can only assume it would be measured in inches, so the answer in my mind would be 24 by 15 inches. I hope this helped, have a nice day! :)

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are given . e(4,-4) , f (1,7)

laila [671]

Let g(x,y) be the midpoint of the segment ef;
So, x = (4+1)/2; then x = 5/2;
y = (-4+7)/2; then y = 3/2;
Finally, g(5/2,3/2).

Barry runs at an average rate of 8 mi/hr. He walks at an average rate of 3 mi/hr. If x represents the time spent running and y r

Viktor [21]

<h3>Answer: 8x+3y = 16</h3>

============================

Work Shown:

x = number of hours spent running

8x = distance he runs (since he runs at 8 mph)

y = number of hours spent walking

3y = distance he walks (he walks at a speed of 3 mph)

8x+3y = total distance = 16 miles

8x+3y = 16

This equation is in standard form Ax+By = C

--------

Extra Info

Solving for y will get

8x+3y = 16

3y = -8x+16

y = (-8x+16)/3

y = (-8x)/3+16/3

y = (-8/3)x+16/3

This is in slope intercept form y = mx+b

m = -8/3 is the slope

b = 16/3 is the y intercept

HELPPP ITS DUE TMRRRRRRRRR

ruslelena [56]

Answer: I think that it's -125/27

Step-by-step explanation: Convert into a complex fraction (-5/3)^3 and then cube the 5 and 3 and don't change the negative sign. The answer then is -125/27

Hope it helps.
