Brian made a scale drawing of a statue. In his scale, 2 inches = 3 feet. The height of the actual statue was 12 feet tall. Which proportion can be used to find the height of the statue in Brian's drawing? A. 2/3 = x/12
B. 2/3 = 12/x
C. x/2+3 = 1/12
D. 2+3/x = 1/2

What are the equivalent ratios for 24/2= /3= /5.5=108/ = /15

Tom can paint the fence in 12 hours, but if he works together with a friend they can finish the job in 8 hours. how long would it take for his friend to paint this fence alone?

Asystem of linear equations with more equations than unknowns is sometimes called an overdetermined system. can such a system be consistent? illustrate your answer with a specific system of three equations in two unknowns. choose the correct answer below. a. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 6 b. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are fewer free variables than equations. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 12 c. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 8 d. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are no free variables. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 24
