A company creates model cars using a 1.5 ft:1 inch ratio when creating models. If a real car is 12 ft long, how long will the model car be?

Length of model car is .

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have , A company creates model cars using a 1.5 ft:1 inch ratio when creating models. If a real car is 12 ft long , We need to find that how long will the model car be . Let's find out:

For model cars the ratio is as , And it's given that real car is about 12 ft long that means

⇒

Where Length = length of model car

⇒

⇒

⇒

⇒

⇒

Therefore, Length of model car is .

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

For 1.5 ft it is equal to 1 inch

For 12 feet it will be equal to

Step 2:

1.5:1 :: 12 : x

By using expansion method,

1.5 x = 12

x = 12/1.5 = 8

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.

no he doesnt because "-16' is negatiive
