the Wright flyer was the first successful powered aircraft a model was made to display in a museum with the length of 35 cm and

a wingspan of about 66.9 CM the length of the actual plan was 21 FT 1 in and the height was 2.74 M compared the length height and wingspan of the model to the actual plane and explain why any errors may occur

To compare the displayed Wright flyer in the museum with the actual plane, we have to compute for the ratio of the corresponding parameter. In this item, for both the display and the actual plane, we are given with the length. Computing for the ratio gives us,
    ratio = length of the model / length of the actual plane

Length of the model = 35 cm
We need to calculate for the length of the model in ft.
    length of the model = (35 cm)(1 in/2.54 cm)(1 ft/12 in)
   length of the model = 1.148 ft

Going back to the equation for the ratio,
   ratio = (1.148 ft)/21 ft
   ratio = 0.055

Hence, the dimensions used in the model is equal to 0.055 times the actual dimensions.

Error may occur because of the number of significant figures considered for rounding up or down of the answers after each calculation.

What are the converse, inverse, and contrapositive of the following true conditional? What are the truth values of each?
ser-zykov [4K]
<span>In logic, the converse of a conditional statement is the result of reversing its two parts. For example, the statement P → Q, has the converse of Q → P.

For the given statement, 'If a figure is a rectangle, then it is a parallelogram.' the converse is 'if a figure is a parallelogram, then it is rectangle.'
As can be seen, the converse statement is not true, hence the truth value of the converse statement is false.
</span>
The inverse of a conditional statement is the result of negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional statement. For example, the inverse of P <span>→ Q is ~P </span><span>→ ~Q.
</span><span><span>For the given statement, 'If a figure is a rectangle, then it is a parallelogram.' the inverse is 'if a figure is not a rectangle, then it is not a parallelogram.'
As can be seen, the inverse statement is not true, hence the truth value of the inverse statement is false.</span>
</span>
The contrapositive of a conditional statement is switching the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional statement and negating both. For example, the contrapositive of <span>P → Q is ~Q → ~P. </span>
<span><span>For the given statement, 'If a figure is a rectangle, then it is a parallelogram.' the contrapositive is 'if a figure is not a parallelogram, then it is not a rectangle.'
As can be seen, the contrapositive statement is true, hence the truth value of the contrapositive statement is true.</span> </span>

PLS HELP ME 50 POINTS!!!!! I NEED AN ANSWER ASAP!!!!!!
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

They went up 16 levels.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find that by finding the distance from -2 to 14.
To find the distance from two numbers, a and b, we can substitute both in the formula d = |b - a|, where d is the distance between them.

d = |14 - (-2)| \to |14 + 2|\to|16|\to16

Possible number of learners in the
Anestetic [448]

Find multiples of 30 and 40:

30: 30, 60, 90, 120, 150

40: 40, 80, 120, 160

The least common multiple is 120, so every 120 minutes they willl both ring.

1 hour = 60 minutes:

120/60 = 2 hours.

The bells ring together every 2 hours.

8 + 2  = 10 am

10 +  = 12pm

12 + 2 = 2 pm

The bells will ring together at am, 12 pm and 2 pm.
