Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

87,120 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Surface area of the Empire State building replica = 45 square feet

Scale factor = 44

2. What is the surface area of the actual Empire State Building in square feet?

For answering the question, we will make the following calculations:

45 square feet = 9 feet * 5 feet or,

45 square feet = 10 feet * 4.5 feet, or,

45 square feet = 20 feet * 2.25 feet.

Now, let's apply the scale factor to all of these probable lengths of the sides of the surface area of the replica, as follows:

(9 *44) * (5 * 44) = 396 * 220 = 87,120 ft²

(10 * 44) * (4.5 * 44) = 440 * 198 = 87,120 ft²

(20 * 44) * (2.25 * 44) =  880 * 99 = 87,120 ft²

As we proved, no matter what are the lengths of the sides of the surface area of the replica. after applying the scale factor, the result is the same: 87,120 ft²

Two bowls of pasta at a restaurant serve 3 people. How many bowls of pasta should be ordered for 12 people?

Answers

3 people - Two bowls of pasta

12 divided by 3 = 4.

8 bowls of pasta should be ordered for 12 people.
12 people divided by 3 people = 4

so if 2 bowls serve 3 people...2 bowls x 4 = serve 12 people

therefore, 8 bowls serve 12 people

Simplify using mental math 7 / 10 + 2 / 5 - 1 / 10

Answers

common denominator first. multiply 2/5 by 2 in the top and bottom so they all have a denominator of 10

7/10+4/10-1/10=10/10

10/10=1
Assuming mental math still follows the order of operations, you have
(7)/(10) +  (4)/(10) -  (1)/(10) =  (10)/(10) = 1

So the answer is 1.
