Part A Monique’s group will design a float for the I love my city parade. They plan to highlight the city’s train system by making a float of the MetroPass.

*SEE PICTURES FOR ACTUAL MEASURES*

The actual MetroPass is 2.1 inches wide and 3.4 inches long. Moniques group wants the MetroPass float to be 74.8 ft long. Her group needs to find the width of the MetroPass float.

How wide, in feet, will the MetroPass float be? Round you answer to the nearest tenth. Show your work.

*WILL BE MARKED BRAINLIEST*

Width = 64.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale is a representative faction that can be used to either increase or decrease the dimension of a given object.

scale =

But,

1 feet = 12 inches

For the actual MetroPass;

length = 3.4 inches = 0.2033 feet

width = 2.1 inches = 0.175 feet

The MetroPass float has a length of 74.8 feet.

scale =

         = 367.93

So that;

the width of the MetroPass float = 0.175 x 367.93

                               = 64.388

Therefore, the width of the MetroPass float is 64.4 feet.

step-by-step explanation:

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
