Answer:

The length of the actual train's car is <u>67.5 feet.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The scale of a model train is 1 inch to 13.5 ft.

Now, to get the length of the actual car of the train.

Let the length of actual train's car be x.

And, the length of the car of model train = 5\ inches\ long.

<em>According to the scale of the model train, 1 inch is equivalent to 13.5 ft. </em>

<em>Thus, 5 inches is equivalent to </em>x.<em />

Now, to get the length of actual train's car using cross multiplication method:

\frac{1}{13.5} =\frac{5}{x}

By cross multiplying we get:

x=67.5\ feet.

Therefore, the length of the actual train's car is 67.5 feet.

a^2+b^2=c^2

7^2+5^2=c^2

49+25=c^2

74=c^2

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Rafael should buy 9 gift bags and 6 bows packet so, that she can have SAME NUMBER OF ITEMS, i.e 54.

Step-by-step explanation:

The gift bags are sold in the packs of 6.

So, the number of gift bags in 1 packet  = 6 gift bags

The number of gift bags in 2  packet  = 6 x 2 gift bags  = 12  gift bags

The number of gift bags in 3  packet  = 6 x 3 gift bags  = 18  gift bags

And continuing similarly, we get

The number of gift bags in 9  packet  = 6 x 9 gift bags  = 54 gift bags.. (1)

The bows are sold in the pack of 9.

So, the number of bows in 1 packet  = 9 bows

The number of bows in 2 packet   = 9 x 2 bows  = 18 bows

The number of bows in 3 packet   = 9 x 3 bows  = 27 bows

And continuing similarly, we get

The number of bows in 6  packet  = 9 x 6 bows  = 54 bows... (2)

Here, comparing both equations (1) and (2) , we get

The number of gift bags = 54  = The number of bows.

Hence, Rafael should buy 9 gift bags and 6 packet of bows so, that she can have SAME NUMBER OF ITEMS, i.e 54.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

The value 10 years is the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

A sample consists of some observations drawn from the population, so a part or a subset of the population which in this case is the number of horses with colic.

A sample mean is the mean of the statistical samples while a population mean is the mean of the total population.

Thus, in this case, the sample mean is the mean age of the horses with colic while the population mean age is the mean age of all the horses found at the clinic.

Therefore, the mean age of 10 of the horses seen at the clinic would be the population mean.
