6. A two-story building measures 21 feet from

Answer:

12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve you have to set up a ratio. Because both buildings are being shrunk the exact same amount, you just have to account for the size difference from the miniature and real life. The ratio is 21:3 and 84:x. To find x you just have to cross multiply and solve.

The equation comes out to be 252 = 21x

Divide both sides by 21 to get x.

252/21 = 12

The size of the 84 foot building as a model is 12 inches.

Answer:

36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Daniela facing a 12 ft tall statue that is 15 ft away. She can see the reflection of the top of the statue in a puddle on the ground 5 ft in front of her. How tall is Daniela?

Hence, this is calculated as:

5ft/15ft = 12 ft/Daniela's height

Cross Multiply

5ft × Daniela's height = 15ft × 12ft

Daniela's height = 15ft × 12 ft/5ft

= 36ft

Therefore, Daniela's height = 36 ft

The point nearest to the origin on a line is at (4, -4). Find the standard form of the equation of the line.
Scrat [10]

Just did a specific one of these; let's do the general case.


The point nearest the origin is (a,b).


The line from the origin through the point is


bx - ay = 0


The line we seek is perpendicular to this one. We swap the coefficients on x and y, negating one, to get the perpendicular family of lines. We set the constant by plugging in the point (a,b):


ax + by = a^2 + b^2


ax + by -( a^2 + b^2) = 0


That's standard form; let's plug in the numbers:


4 x - 4 y - 32 = 0


x - y - 8 = 0

wlad13 [49]
Well, we know that 25% is also 1/4 and if we multiply $80.00 by 1/4 you get $20 so the answer is $20.
