On a 1/5 scale drawing of a car, one part is 8 inches long. How long will the actual car part be?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: If it's one fifth scale, take it times five to get the whole scale. 8 times five equals 40. The car is 40" long, 3' 4" long, or three and one third feet long.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

The actual length of the given car part is 40 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Scale of drawing of a car is (1)/(5)

Also, given one part is 8 inches long.

We have to find the actual length of the given car part.

Since, the given scale decreases the actual length by a factor of (1)/(5)

So, The actual length will be

New length = (1)/(5) × actual length

Thus, Actual length will be

Actual length = 5 ×  new  length

 Actual length = 5 × 8 = 40 inches.

So,  The actual length of the given car part is 40 inches.

PLEASE HELP ME!! This assignment is already late!If d + 5 >= (greater than or equal to) 17, complete each inequality.

d >= ?

d + ? >= 20

d - 5 >= ?

Answers

d + 5 >= 17
We can subtract 5 from each side:
d >= 12
To get 20 on the right, we have to add 8 to each side (20-12=8).

d + 8 >= 20

To get d - 5 from the first expression (d + 5 >= 17) we have to subtract ten from each side (5-10=-5) and we get:

d - 5 >= 7

Suppose the repeated pattern in 0.020020200202002...continues forever.Is this number rational?A)Yes,because the number can be written as the quotient integers.
B)Yes,because the number is terminating decimal.
C)No,because the number is not terminating decimal.
D)No,because the number is repeating decimal.

Answers

Yes.  Any decimal that repeats the same pattern forever is rational,
because it can be written as the quotient of integers.

This one can be written as      2,002 / 99,999 .
 the answer is a yes it is a rational number

there are 266 students watching a play in the auditorium. there 10 rows with 20 students in each row and 5 rows with 8 students in each row. how many students r sitting in each of the two remainingrows if each of those row has an equal number of students ?

Answers

Let x = number of students in each of the remaining rows

266 = (10 x 20) + (5 x 8) + 2x
266 - (10 x 20) - (5 x 8) = 2x
266 - 200 - 40 = 2x
26 = 2x
x = 26/2
x = 13
10 x 20 = 200
5 x 8 = 40 

266 - (200 + 40) = 26

26 ÷ 2 = 13students
