Answer:

0.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale is 50:1 this means if the wing had a real length of 1 cm, in the drawing it will be of 50 cm.

We want to know the real length of the wing of the drawing has a wing with a length of 15cm.

We can express the information we have as follows:

Drawn length     Real Length

      50cm                  1cm

       15cm                  x

Where x is the real length of the wing when the drawing has a length of 15cm.

We can solve the problem by applying<u> rule of three</u>, we must multiply the cross quantities and divide by the remaining amount.

x=\frac{15*1}{50}=\frac{15}{50} =0.3

The actual length of the wing is 0.3cm.

Answer:

The equation of the relation ⇒ y=\frac{6x}{z}

y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ y ∝ x/z

∴ y = kx/z

∵ y = 18 , x = 15 and z = 5

∴ 18 = 15k/5 ⇒ 18 = 3k

∴ k = 18/3 = 6

∴ y = 6x/z

∵ x = 21 and z = 7

∴ y = (6 × 21)/7 = 18

Stells [14]

Answer:

500 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel (y) Karl has in his car is a function of the distance (x) Karl travelled. The amount of fuel (y) is dependent on the distance (x) Karl travelled.

On the y-axis, we have amount of fuel.

On the x-axis, we have distance travelled.

At the time Karl travelled when he had 200 liters of fuel (y) remaining in his car, he had travelled a distance (x) of 500 kilometers.

We know this by looking at the graph given. When x (distance) = 500, y (fuel) = 200.
