Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

A scale model of a school building is 5 inches tall.

Actual size of the school building is 100 feet.

1 feet=12 inches

100 feet=12×100 inches

= 1200 inches

5 inch is representing 1200 inches

1 inch represents 1200/5 inches

1 inch represents 240 inches

or 1 inch represents 12×20 inch

or 1 inch represents 20 feet

Scale of the model is:

1 inch represents 240 inches

1 inch represents 20 feet

It's 20 feet to one inch or 10 feet to half an inch.

Evaluate the expression 3(7 + 4)2 − 14 ÷ 7. 50 361 363 586

It appears that none of your option choices are correct,, are you sure you copied them right ? I will show you how to solve this and how I got my answer.
The first step for solving this is to add the numbers in the parenthesis.
3 × 11 × 2 - 14 ÷ 7
Divide -14 by 7.
3 × 11 × 2 - 2
Divide the first 3 numbers together.
66 - 2
Subtract the numbers together to get your final answer.
64
Let me know if you have any further questions.

The price of a mobile phone decreased from $375 to $250 during a clearance sale. What is the percent of decrease in the price?

Tresset [83]

So decrease is 375-250=75

so convert 75/375 to percent
percent means part out of 100 so
x/100=x%

divide 125/375=0.3333/1

multiply by 100/100=33/100=33%

the answer is 33% or B

Vector u has a magnitude of 7 units and a direction angle of 330°. Vector v has magnitude of 8 units and a direction angle of 30

Dafna11 [192]

Keeping in mind that x = rcos(θ) and y = rsin(θ).

we know the magnitude "r" of U and V, as well as their angle θ, so let's get them in standard position form.

$\bf u=
\begin{cases}
x=7cos(330^o)\\
\qquad 7\cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\
\qquad \frac{7\sqrt{3}}{2}\\
y=7sin(330^o)\\
\qquad 7\cdot -\frac{1}{2}\\
\qquad -\frac{7}{2}
\end{cases}\qquad \qquad v=
\begin{cases}
x=8cos(30^o)\\
\qquad 8\cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\
\qquad \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2}\\
y=8sin(30^o)\\
\qquad 8\cdot \frac{1}{2}\\
\qquad 4
\end{cases}$

$\bf u+v\implies \left( \frac{7\sqrt{3}}{2},-\frac{7}{2} \right)+\left( \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2},4 \right)\implies \left( \frac{7\sqrt{3}}{2}+\frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2}~~,~~ -\frac{7}{2}+4\right)
\\\\\\
\left(\stackrel{a}{\frac{15\sqrt{3}}{2}}~~,~~ \stackrel{b}{\frac{1}{2}}\right)\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf tan(\theta )=\cfrac{b}{a}\implies tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{15\sqrt{3}}{2}}\implies tan(\theta )=\cfrac{1}{15\sqrt{3}}
\\\\\\
\measuredangle \theta =tan^{-1}\left( \cfrac{1}{15\sqrt{3}} \right)\implies \measuredangle \theta \approx 2.20422750397203^o$
