The Wright brothers' Flyer had a 48 in. wingspan. Carla bought a model of the plane with a scale factor of 1/40. What is the model's wingspan?

If the wingspan is 48 inches, and the model is 1/40, you have to find 1/40 of the original Wright brothers' Flyer, so 1/40 of 48.

48 * 1/40

48/40

Which simplifies to 6/5.

The models wingspan in fraction form is 6/5.

The models wingspan in decimal form is 1.2.

The models wingspan in mixed number form is 1 and 1/5.

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17

a
