Using proportions, it is found that the table is completed as follows:

Original Ratio Number in the zoo

Baby camels 5 20

Adult camels 6 24

Total camels 11 44

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

At the zoo, for every 6 adult camels, there are 5 baby camels, hence, out of 11 camels, 5 are baby and 6 are adult.

Thus, out of 44 camels, we have that:

44/11 x 5 = 20, hence there are 20 baby camels.

44/11 x 6 = 24, hence there are 24 adult camels.

The table is:

Original Ratio Number in the zoo

Baby camels 5 20

Adult camels 6 24

Total camels 11 44

Answer:

13.98 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the airplane be at point A, the airport at point B and the point of overshoot, point C.

If the plane is on path AC and the pilot wants to adjust to the path AB, the angle by which the pilot will adjust the airplane heading is the angle between AB and AC which is A.

Using Cosine Rule

$Cos A=\dfrac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc} \\Cos A=\dfrac{65^2+60^2-16^2}{2(65)(60)} \\Cos A=0.9704\\A=arcCos (0.9704)\\\angle A=13.98^\circ$

The pilot should adjust the plane's heading by 13.98 degrees.
