Answer:

Answer:

Option D is correct.

900 feet tall does the monster appear in the movie

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion states that the two ratios or fractions are equal

As per the statement:

To make a monster appear large in a movie, a human actor wore a costume and walked through a scale model of a city.

Scale used was:

1 inch = 15 feet.

It is also given that: the actor is 60 inches tall

To find how tall does the monster appear in the movie

Let x be the height of the Monster appear in the movie.

by definition of proportion we have;

(1)/(15) =(60)/(x)

By cross multiply we have;

x = 15 \cdot 60

Simplify:

x = 900 feet

Therefore, 900 feet tall does the monster appear in the movie

Its 5. Since -9 + 8 is in parentheses, you do that first and you should get -1. Finally you add 6 and -1 and you get 5, because you count -1 by 6 since its adding on the number line. Like this, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. So, the final answer is 5.

Is 31.010 greater or less or equal to 31.01

Answers


Well, lets look at it  this way ... tell me if this does anything for you:

-- Take the number  31.01 .

-- Stick a zero on the end and make it  31.010 .

-- Zeros at the end of a number after the decimal point don't change
the value of the number.  So you haven't changed the value of  31.01 .

-- But now it looks exactly like the other number !

-- They must be equal.


Does this float your boat at all ?
31.010 is = to 31.01

the reason being that the 0 on the end of 31.010 is just there for to hold an unwanted place value.

Ex. 0.70 is the same as 0.7 because the zero is just holding a place value. It's not wrong to put in the zero but its better if you don't.

How can you make 16 dollars using exactly and only 3 bills, one of which is not a 10-dollar bill?

Answers

That would be by using a $1 bill, a $5 bill, and a $10 bill. Either the $1 bill or the $5 bill qualify as the "one of which is not the $10 bill". It's a matter of translating the question.
