The blueprints for a me house are scaled so that 1/4 inch equals 1 foot, what is the scale factor in terms of inches to inches?

Submarines control how much they float or sink in the ocean by changing the volume of air and water contained in large ballast tanks. when the tanks are completely full of water, the submarine increases its overall mass and sinks down to the bottom. when the tanks are completely full of air, the submarine reduces its overall mass and floats to the surface. depending on the density of the seawater surrounding the submarine, it will pump seawater in or out of the tanks in order to achieve the same overall density as the sea water and float neutrally in the water. the volume of the submarine never changes. when the tanks are completely full of water, a submarine with a volume of 7.8\times10^3\text{ m}^37.8×10 3 m 3 7, point, 8, times, 10, start superscript, 3, end superscript, space, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript has a total mass of 8\times10^6\text{ kg}8×10 6 kg8, times, 10, start superscript, 6, end superscript, space, k, g. the density of the seawater is 10^3\text{ kg/m}^310 3 kg/m 3 10, start superscript, 3, end superscript, space, k, g, slash, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. to make that submarine float neutrally, and neither float nor sink in the ocean, what volume of water does that submarine need to subtract from its tanks?

An unknown number x is at most 10. which graph best represents all the values of x? number line graph with closed circle on 10 and shading to the right. number line graph with open circle on 10 and shading to the right. number line graph with open circle on 10 and shading to the left. number line graph with closed circle on 10 and shading to the left.

The table below shows the approximate masses of a dust particle and a grain of pollen. dust particle 0.000000778 g grain of pollen 0.00000000155 g the mass of a dust particle can be estimated and written in the form a × 10^b, where a = 8 and b = the mass of a grain of pollen can be estimated and written in the form a × 10^b, where a = 2 and b = based on the estimates, the mass of a dust particle is approximately blank times larger than the mass of a grain of pollen.
