At a height of about 212 meters, One Shell Square is the tallest building in New Orleans. Marlie is creating a scale model of this building, using the scale factor 1:250. To the nearest tenth of a meter, what will be the height of the scale model?

0.8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is 1:250 (can be rewritten as 1/250 or 1 to 250).

1/250 × 212 = 0.848 Meters

Round to the nearest tenth, the scale model will be 0.8 meters.

OR: SET UP A PROPORTION:

cross-multiply

may i see the picture? it would a lot, xox

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
