Please help!, Mrs. Davis is building a storage shed that is 12 feet long and 8 feet wide. Construct a scale drawing of the shed. Use a scale of 1/2 inch = 8 feet

3/4 inch by 1/2 inch (length - width)

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/2 inch equals 8 feet on the scale drawing, this means that 1/4 inch on the scale drawing equals 4 feet, by dividing 2 on both sides.

The storage shed is 12 feet long, and 4 feet on the scale drawing equal 1/4 inch. By multiplying the scale of 1/4 inch = 4 feet by 3 on both sides, we get 3/4 inch = 12 feet. This means that the length of the storage shed can be represented by 3/4 inch.

Since 1/2 inch equals 8 feet and the width of the storage shed is 8 feet, the width can be represented by 1/2 inch on the scale drawing.

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
