The ratio of a model car to a regular car is 1: 16. the model is 6.25 inches long. what is the length of the actual car in feet and inches? what if the ratio of the model car was 2: 32, then what would be the actual length of the car?

for ex: the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. it is the opposite.

reciprocal definition:

a mathematical expression or function so related to another that their product is one; the quantity obtained by dividing the number one by a given quantity.

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1
