Correct answer is: actual wingspan of airplane is 6 inches.

Solution:-

We are given that wingspan is 'a' feet and tail span is 'b' feet in a scale drawing.

And we are also given that tail span is 2 inches that is b=2 inches and \frac{a}{b}=3

Let us plugin the b value in above equation.

\frac{a}{2}=3

Multiplying with 2 on both sides.

a=3X2=6 inches.

Hence actual wingspan of airplane is 6 inches.

A t-shirt launcher can launch 6 shirts in 30 minutes. What is the number of shirts per hour?​
Ilya [14]

Answer:

12 shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

If a T-Shirt Launcher can launch 6 shirts in 30 minutes, that means it can launch 12 shirts in an hour, because there are 60 minutes in a hour, and 30 minutes is half os 60 minutes, so we just do 6 x 2 = 12.

Solve x: <br> 6 - 4x = -38<br> --Please help! This is homework due in for Monday! Xx
igomit [66]

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents (& roots), Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)

First, subtract 6 from both sides

-4x + 6 (-6) = -38 (-6)

-4x = -38 - 6

-4x = -44

Next, fully isolate the x by dividing -4 from both sides

(-4x)/-4 = (-44)/-4

x = -44/-4

x = 11

11 is your answer for x.

Solve the simultaneous equations:<br><br> 3a-2b=14 <br> 12a+9b=39
kirill [66]
Use elimination
Multiply first equation by 4
12a - 8b = 56
12a + 9b = 39
Subtract both
-17b = 17
b = -1
Plug in -1 for b
3a - 2(-1) = 14
3a = 12, a = 4
Final answer: a = 4, b = -1
