60 ft = 720 inches
15 ft = 180 inches

6 inches / 720 inches = 1/120
x inches / 180 inches = 1/120

1.5 = 1/120 of 180

The width of the model in inches is 1.5 inches.

Answer:

1.5 inches

Step by step explanation:

Set up a ratio of

x/15 = 6/60

then solve and cross multiply..

60x = 90

divide by 60

x = 1.5

Why does the equation y = 3x + 5 NOT represent a proportional relationship?
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form  or  

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem we have

This is the equation of the line in slope intercept form

where

The given equation not represent a proportional relationship, because the line not pass through the origin

In a proportional relationship the value of b (y-intercept) is equal to zero

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

4.7 feet³ of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of 4 feet

Radius = 2 feet

Height = 0.75 feet

Formula for Volume = 2·\pi·radius·height

But she only wants to fill half, so divide by 2, cancels the 2 in the formula for volume, giving us: \pi·radius·height

\pi·2·0.75 = 4.71 feet³

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO WHOEVER ANSWERS FIRST!!!
Alex Ar [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to set one of the equations equal to either x or y. For this, I put x+y=-2 equal to y which would be y=-x-2. Then you plug this in to the other equation for y. This would give you 5x+2(-x-2)=2. When you factor the two into the parenthesis, combine like terms, and keep the x values on ones side and the other numbers on the other side, you get 3x=6

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (6,1) and is parallel to the line x+3y=15
Elden [556K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x + 3y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The parallel line will have the same x- and y-coefficients. The new constant can be found by using the (x, y) values of the given point.

  x + 3y = (6 +3(1)) = 9

The equation of the parallel line is ...

  x + 3y = 9
