For the filming of a recent sci-fi movie, a model spaceship made to a scale of 1:16 was used. In the movie, the ship is supposed

Lunna [17]

Answer: 6.5 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

The model of the spaceship was made to a scale of 1:16. Assuming the same unit of measurement used in the actual spaceship was also used in the model space ship and it was in feets. This means 1 foot on the model spaceship represented 16 feets on the actual spaceship.

In the movie, the ship is supposed to be 104 feet long. Let x be the corresponding length on the model. Therefore,

1:16 = x:104

1/16 = x/104

16x = 104

x = 104/16 = 6.5feets

So the length of the model is 6.5 feets

the birth rate in a certain country in 1994 was 14,6 birthd per thousand population. in 2004 the birth rate was 14.32 per thousa

amm1812

Answer:

$y(x)=-0.028x+14.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Birth Rate in 1994 = 14.6 births per thousand population.

Birth Rate in 2004 = 14.32 births per thousand population.

A linear equation is of the form: y=mx+c

Where:

x=years after 1994
y=the birth rate
m=Yearly Birth Rate

First, we determine the birth rate per year

$m=\dfrac{14.32-14.6}{10-0}\\=\dfrac{-0.28}{10}\\m=-0.028$

Therefore, a linear equation that relates y in terms of x is of the form:

$y(x)=-0.028x+c$

When x=0, y=14.6

14.6=-0.028(0)+c

c=14.6

Therefore, the linear equation that relates y in terms of x is:

$y(x)=-0.028x+14.6$

Mary has a third of the money that Erin has. Erin has $8 less than John. Together they have $267. How much money does each of th

svet-max [94.6K]

Mary = (1/3)x

Erin = x - 8

John = x

Here is your equation:

(1/3)x + (x - 8) + x = 267

Take it from here.
