The rectangular floor of a classroom is 36 feet long and 32 feet in width. a scale drawing of the floor has a legnth of nine inches. what is the area, in square inches, of the floor in the scale drawing.

72 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 36/9= 4

so you assume you are using a scale of 4

then you do 32/4=8in for the scale drawing (reffering to the width)

8x9= 72

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
