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.

2. Function C takes time for its input and gives a student's Monday class for its output.
kaheart [24]

Answer:

We know that C(T) is a function where you input the time T, and the output will be the student's Monday class.

a) A student has English at 10:00.

Here we can use T = 10:00 as the input, and the output will be the class, English.

Then this can represent this with:

C(10:00) = English.

b) Write a statement to describe the meaning of C(11:15) = chemistry.

for C(11:15) = Chemistry

The input, the time, is 11:15

The output, the class, is chemistry.

The student has a chemistry class at 11:15
