Answer:

50.2in or 4.2ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem about proportions so I generally set up my problems like below. I just set some variable here to make it easier to refer back to the measurements for each. You don't have to do this, I am just showing it for clarity. I will convert everything to inches too. We need to find the real window height.

Mb = model building = 18in

Mw= model window = \frac{1}{9}in

Rb = real building = 678ft = 8136in

Rw = real window = ?

\frac{Mw}{Mb} = \frac{Rw}{Rb}

\frac{1/9}{18} = \frac{Rw}{8136}

\frac{1}{9*18} = \frac{Rw}{8136}  

\frac{1}{162} = \frac{Rw}{8136}

\frac{1*8136}{162}= \frac{8136*Rw}{8136}

\frac{8136}{162} = Rw

\frac{452}{9} = Rw

Rw ≈ 50.2in ≈ 4.2ft

A person invests 6500 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 7% interest compounded
Inessa [10]

Answer:

t=16.2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

A=$20100

P=$6500

r=7%=0.07

n=4

t=?

t=ln(A/P)/n {ln(1+r/n)}

=ln(20100/6500) / 4{ln(1+0.07/4)}

=ln(3.0923)/4{ln(1+0.0175)}

=ln(3.0923)/4{ln(1.0175)}

=1.1289/4(0.0174)

=1.1289/0.0696

=16.23

To the nearest tenth

t=16.2 years

What is the median of 123,138,142,133
zimovet [89]
The answer is 135.5

123, 133, 138, 142

Organize the numbers in order from smallest to largest. There are two numbers in the middle so add those two and divide by two. 133+138=271÷2 is 135.5

One company makes inflatable swimming pools that come in four sizes of rectangular prisms.
Margaret [11]

Answer:

L = 2W, and LW = 5000.  Therefore 2W^2 = 5000, so W^2 = 2500.  This means W=50 and L=100.
