dimaraw [331]

Answer:

There's two ways to solve this.

Step-by-step explanation:

First way:

Let's divide the width and length by 2.3.

46÷2.3=20

69÷2.3=30

20×30

600 ft²

Second Way:

Let's find the area of the actual room.

46×69

3,174 ft²

Let's find the scale drawing squared.

2.3²=5.29

3,174÷5.29

600 ft²

Consider the following equations and name the property of equality used to solve for the variable.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Subtraction property ; x = 3.25

Division property ; - 6

multiplication property ; - 125

Addition property ; 13

Step-by-step explanation:

A.)

x + 3.75 = 7

Using the subtraction property : subtract 3.75 from both sides

x + 3.75 - 3.75 = 7 - 3.75

x = 3.25

B. )

–3b = 18

According to the division property :

Divide both sides by - 3

-3b / - 3 = 18 / - 3

b = - 6

C.)

m/5 = - 25

Using the multiplication property :

m/5 * 5 = - 25 * 5

m = - 125

D.)

m – 4 = 9

Using the addition property :

Add 4 to both sides :

m - 4 + 4 = 9 + 4

m = 13
