Jake has made a scale drawing of a sand pit he plans to build. The pit is 3m by 5m.
His drawing to scale is 15cm by 25cm
What scale has he used?

The scale is 5cm/m  (5 cm in the drawing are equivalent to 1 meter on the actual pit)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have an original measure M, and we redraw it with a new scale, where the new measure is m, the scale used is equal to:

scale = m/M.

In this case, we know that:

The pit is 3m, by 5m

and the drawing to scale is 15cm by 25cm

(15cm is the rescaled version of the 3m side, and 25cm is the rescaled version of the 5m side)

Using the equation above, we can find that the scale is:

Scale = 15cm/3m = 5cm/m

and, if we use the other side, we get:

Scale = 25cm/5m = 5cm/m

Both calculations give the same scale, as expected.

Then the scale is 5cm/m, which means that 5 centimeters in the drawing are equivalent to one meter in the real pit.

answer: domain and range mean all possible values of x and y that could be substituted to the inequality. a solution means all possible values that make the inequality statement true. so while the range is still all real numbers, the solution is the shaded area, for which y will always be greater than the line of the function.

the correct answer is a.) bc< mn 5 stars if this you : )
