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.

Solve the equation for x 120(2x − 2) = 240
sashaice [31]

Answer:

The answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, follow the order of operations as laid out below.

120(2x - 2) = 240 ----> Divide both sides by 120

2x - 2 = 2 ----> Add 2 to both sides

2x = 4 ------> Divide both sides by 2

x = 2

identify the initial amount a and the rate of growth r (as a percent) of the exponential function H(t) = 175 (1.028)t. evaluate
Liula [17]

From the given exponential function, we have that:

  • The initial amount is of 175.
  • The growth rate is of 2.8%.
  • When t = 5, we have that H(5) = 201.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An increasing exponential function is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, the function is:

H(t) = 175(1.028)^t

  • The initial value is of A(0) = 175.
  • The growth rate is of 0.028 = 2.8\%, as 1 + r = 1.028 \rightarrow r = 0.028.

When t = 5, we have that:

H(5) = 175(1.028)^5 = 201

Worldwide, the proportion of babies who are boys is about 0.51 . Let the random variable X represent the number of boys in five
solmaris [256]

Answer:

mean = 2.55

Standard deviation = 1.118

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of babies who are boys

P = 0.51

Then we have q = 1-p

= 1-0.51

= 0.49

We have n = 5

We calculate the mean as:

np

= 0.51x5

= 2.55

Therefore mean = 2.55

The standard deviation

= √variance

= √npq

= √0.51x5x0.49

=√1.2495

= 1.118
