Answer:

1 inch: 2.5 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if Paco did half of the dimensions then half of the scale is what he drew. To prove that I took a test and passed that question. lol

Answer:

2:1 that is 2 inches in real life is equal to 1 inch in the drawing.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Longest side of the pool = 10 inches

Longest side of the pool in drawing = 5 inches

Scale:

We find the ratio of the real length of pool and the measurement of the length of the pool in the drawing.

\text{Scale} = \dfrac{10\text{ inches}}{5\text{ inches}} = 2:1

Thus, we can say Paco's new drawing follows a scale of 2:1 that is 2 inches in real life is equal to 1 inch in the drawing.

Water flows into a swimming pool at the rate of 8.0 gal/min. The pool is 16 ft wide, 32 ft long and 8.0 ft deep. How long does i
VLD [36.1K]

1 foot = 12 inches

(1 foot)^3 = (12 inches)^3

1 cubic foot = (12^3) cubic inches

1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches, will be used as a conversion factor

--------------

Find the volume of the pool. Assume it is a rectangular prism.

Volume = length*width*height

Volume = 32*16*8

Volume = 4096 cubic feet

Multiply by 1728, which was the conversion factor found earlier, to convert from cubic feet to cubic inches.

4096 cubic feet = (4096*1728) cubic inches = 7077888 cubic inches

--------------

Now use the fact that 1 gallon = 231 cubic inches to convert from cubic inches to gallons

7077888 cubic inches = (7077888 cubic inches)*(1 gallon/231 cubic inches) = 7077888/231 = 30640.2078 gallons which is approximate

--------------

If x is the amount of time in minutes, then 8x gallons of water have been added after x minutes. Set this equal to 30640.2078 and solve for x

8x = 30640.2078

x = 30640.2078/8

x = 3830.02598

Divide this by 60 to convert to hours

3830.02598/60 = 63.8337663

<h3>It takes approximately 63.8 hours to fill the pool</h3>

This is approximately 63.8/24 = 2.625 days

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

If both Kelsey and Jeana purchase 6 pairs of uniform pants then they would pay the same amount for their purchases.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is as follows:

  • Kelsey buys several pairs of uniform pants for $17.95 each, and a sweater for $24.
  • Jeana shops at a different store and buys several pairs of uniform pants for $18.95 each, plus a sweater for $18.

The variable <em>x</em> is the number of pairs of pants.

The total cost function for Kelsey will be:

TC_{K}=17.95\cdot x+24

The total cost function for Jeana will be:

TC_{J}=18.95\cdot x+18

Consider that both pay the same total cost for their purchases.

Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

            TC_{K}=TC_{J}

17.95\cdot x+24=18.95\cdot x+18\\\\18.95\cdot x-17.95\cdot x=24-18\\\\x=6

Thus, if both Kelsey and Jeana purchase 6 pairs of uniform pants then they would pay the same amount for their purchases.
