An engineer designed a new bridge and drew the scale drawing shown below. 6 Inches If the engineer used the scale 3 inch = 40 feet, how long is the actual bridge the engineer designed?

The bridge is 80 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the ratio method to solve the question

∵ The engineer used the scale 3 inch = 40 feet

∴ The scale drawing is ⇒ 3 inche :  40 feet

∵ The drawing length of the bridge is 6 inches

→ By using the ratio method

→  inch :  feet

→  3      :  40

→  6      :  x

→ By using cross multiplication

∵ 3 × x = 6 × 40

∴ 3x = 240

→ Divide both sides by 3

∴ x = 80

∵ x represents the actual length of the bridge

∴ The bridge is 80 feet long

1. x> -5

2. x< 8

step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x> -10

divide by 2 from both sides of equation.

2x/2> -10/2

simplify, to find the answer.

-10/2=-5

x> -5 is the correct answer.

2. 3x< 24

divide by 3 from both sides of equation.

3x/3< 24/3

simplify, to find the answer.

24/3=8

x< 8 is the correct answer.

i hope this you, and have a wonderful day!
