Answer: Hello there!

We know that the model is 28 inches long, and the scale of the model is 1/48 with respect to the real plane.

Now we want to know how long is the actual plane.

If the scale of the model is 1/48, this means that 48 models are equal in length to the actual plane. Then the length of the actual plane is 48 times the length of the model, this is:

L = 48*28 inches = 1344 inches, we could change the units for others more suiting for a plane, using that 1 feet = 12 inches, then we could write the length in feet using dividing the length in inches by 12.

L =1344/12 = 112 feets.

You would say 1/48=28/x and solve the proportion to get an answer of 1344 inches, which is 112 feet.

48 students are girls they make up 60% of the class how many students total
qwelly [4]
For this you would do
48 \div .60
Because 60% is the same as 0.60. And solving a problem like this is the opposite of finding a percent of a number. When you solve this you get 80. So there are 80 students in total.

Four diners have ordered a platter of desserts. The platter holds 8 chocolate chip cookies and 4 slices of chocolate cheesecake.
Furkat [3]

Answer:

P(Y>1 \cap Y

And we can find this probability like this:

P(Y>1 \cap Y

And we can replace the values and we got:

P(Y>1 \cap Y

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we define the random variable Y as: the number of slices of cheesecake left on the platter after the first serving. And we have the following distribution for Y:

Y     |     0          1        2         3         4

P(Y) | 0.005  0.114  0.429  0.381  0.071

And we want to find the following probability:

P(Y>1 \cap Y

And we can find this probability like this:

P(Y>1 \cap Y

And we can replace the values and we got:

P(Y>1 \cap Y
