A.) 15x = 6.2
B.) 6.2x = 15
C.) 1/6.2 = x/15
D.) 1/6.2 = 15/x

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Required equation

The height of statue of liberty is 93 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Howard has a scale model of the Statue of Liberty. The model is 15 inches tall. The scale of the model to the actual statue is 1 inch : 6.2 meters.

To find : Which equation can Howard use to determine x, the height in meters, of the Statue of Liberty?

Solution :

The model is 15 inches tall.

The scale of the model to the actual statue is 1 inch : 6.2 meters.

Let  x be the height in meters of the Statue of Liberty.

According to question, required equation is

Cross multiply,  

x=15 x 6.2

x=93

Therefore, the height of statue of liberty is 93 meters.

step by step resolutions

1) n+n+1+n+2=51

3n+3=51

3n=48

n=16

the three numbers are 16, 17 and 18.

2) x+15=4x

3x=15

x=5

3) the two digits are x and y.

y=3x

(10x+y)+(10y+x)=88

y=3x

11x+11y=88

y=3x

x+y=8

x+3x=8

x=2

the original number can be either 28 or 82.

4) n+(n+2)+(n+4)=48

3n+6=48

3n=42

n=14

the numbers are 14, 16 and 18.

5) y=x+3

10y+x+10x+y=143

y=x+3

11x+11y=143

y=x+3

x+y=13

x+x+3=13

2x=10

x=5

the original number can be 57 or 75.

hope this !

1 ?

step-by-step explanation:

u said 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1*0 so ur adding 1 but then multiplying by 0 so its 0 but then u said 1*0+1 so now ur adding 1 so the answer is juan ?
