The youth center has another mural painted inside the building. If the original painting is 3 feet by 2 feet, and the mural is 15 feet by 10 feet, what is the scale comparing the painting to the mural?

a) 3ft:10ft
b) 1ft:5ft
c) 1ft:3ft
d) 2ft:15ft

Answers

Answer 1
he scale is determined by dividing the respective measures of the two paintings.

Original painting           mural       scale factor
3                                    15            original / mural = 3 / 15 = 1 / 5
2                                    10            original  / mural = 2 / 10 = 1 / 5 
As you see the scale to comparing the original to the mural es   1 feet : 5 feet.   
It  means that the measures of the original painting must be multiplied by 5 to obtain the measures of the mural.

A package of hot dogs cost $2 and a package of hamburger cost $8. You bought a total of 11 packages of meat and you spent $52. How many packages of hotdogs did you buy? Use a system to solve. 6 packages 4 packages 7 packages 5 packages

Answers

You bought 6 packages of hot dogs.

To solve this, you have to write and solve a system of equations. Let B stand for hamburgers and H stand for hot dogs.

B + H = 11
8B + 2H = 52     If you multiply the top equation by -2, you can solve by eliminatoin.


-2B + -2H = -22
8B + 2H = 52    Add the equations

B = 5

If you bought 5 packages of hamburgers, then you bought 6 packages of hot doges.  11 - 5 = 6

Kim paycheck was $257.20. She put 1/4 of her paycheck into a savings account and used 1/3 of what was left to pay bills. How much money does she have remaining from her paycheck

Answers

To determine how much of her paycheck she put into her savings account, divide the total amount by 4:

257.2 / 4 = 64.3

A fourth of Kim's paycheck is $64.30; this is the amount she put into her savings account.

Since Kim now has 1/3 of her paycheck, we know that the 1/3 of what was left which she used to pay bills is equal to the amount she put into her savings account: $64.30.

Now, since we know that Kim had took out two equal amounts of money from her paycheck which were fourths, we know that whatever she has left will be half of that:

257.2 / 2 = 128.6

Answer:
Sue has $128.60 remaining from her paycheck.

What is a word problem?

A word problem is a verbal description of a problem situation. It consists of few sentences describing a 'real-life' scenario where a problem needs to be solved by way of a mathematical calculation.

For the given situation,

The marked price of bicycle = $500

Discount percentage = 30% = 0.30

Now, discount price = 500(0.30)

⇒ $150

The sale price of the bicycle can be found as

Sale price = Marked price - discount price

⇒ Sale price = 500 - 150

⇒ Sale price = $350

Hence we can conclude that the sale price of the bicycle in a store is $350.

A ramp has a rise of 10 feet and run of 50 feet find the slope

Answers

the slope of this is 1/5

The slope with the given rise and run is 1/5.

Given that, a ramp has a rise of 10 feet and a run of 50 feet.

We need to find the slope.

What is the slope?

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of a line in the coordinate plane. Calculating the slope of a line is similar to finding the slope between two different points. In general, to find the slope of a line, we need to have the values of any two different coordinates on the line.

Now, slope=rise/run

=10/50

=1/5

Therefore, the slope is 1/5.

The verticals of a parallelogram are G(-8,3), R(-7,6),A(-3,6), and M(-4,3). Graph GRAM and G’R’A’M’, it’s image after a translation 13 units right and 2 units up

Answers

See the attached diagram for a plot of the original vertices and their images.

The image of parallelogram GRAM, G'R'A'M', after a translation 13 units right and 2 units up is formed by the points G'(5, 5), R'(6, 8), A'(10, 8), and M'(9, 5).

To graph the parallelogram GRAM and its image G'R'A'M' after a translation 13 units right and 2 units up, follow these steps:

Plot the points G(-8,3), R(-7,6), A(-3,6), and M(-4,3) to form the parallelogram GRAM.

Calculate the new coordinates for G', R', A', and M' after the translation. You'll add 13 units to the x-coordinates (rightward) and 2 units to the y-coordinates (upward):

G'(-8 + 13, 3 + 2) = G'(5, 5)

R'(-7 + 13, 6 + 2) = R'(6, 8)

A'(-3 + 13, 6 + 2) = A'(10, 8)

M'(-4 + 13, 3 + 2) = M'(9, 5)

Plot the new points G'(5, 5), R'(6, 8), A'(10, 8), and M'(9, 5) to form the parallelogram G'R'A'M'. These points will be the image after the translation.

A restaurant buys a freezer in the shape of a rectangular prism. The dimensions of the freezer are shown. What is the volume of the freezer?

Dimensions- 36 in, 24 1/2 in, 72 1/2 in.

Please explain clearly how you got your answer

Answers

To answer this question you will use the formula for finding volume of a rectangular prism. V=lwh, where V stands for volume, l stands for the length, w stands for the width, and h stands for the height. What you are really doing is finding the area of the base of the rectangular prism by multiplying the length by the width. Once you have this you then multiply it by the height which takes you all the way through the prism to create the third dimension of volume. The answer is 63,945 cubic inches.

The perimeter of a pentagon is 20t+7. Four sides have the following lengths: 6t, 2t, 4t-5, and 5t+1.What is the length of the fifth side?

Answers

The length of the fifth side is -59/3 units.

How to calculate the length?

The perimeter of a pentagon is the sum of the lengths of all five sides.

We know that the four sides have lengths of 6t, 2t, 4t-5, and 5t+1. Let's add these together:

6t + 2t + (4t-5) + (5t+1) = 17t - 4

We also know that the perimeter is equal to 20t+7. So we can set these two expressions equal to each other and solve for the fifth side:

17t - 4 = 20t + 7

Subtracting 17t from both sides, we get:

-4 = 3t + 7

Subtracting 7 from both sides, we get:

-11 = 3t

Dividing both sides by 3, we get:

-11/3 = t

Now that we know the value of t, we can find the length of the fifth side by substituting t back into one of the expressions for the sides. Let's use the expression for the third side, which is 4t-5:

4t - 5 = 4(-11/3) - 5 = -44/3 - 15/3 = -59/3

So the length of the fifth side is -59/3 units.
