An airplane is 180 feet
long. Blake makes a
scale model of the
airplane at 1:60 of its
actual size. How long is
the model?

3 feet

Step-by-step explanation: First, since the model is scaled down from the airplane, we set the ratio as 1:60=x:180, or in fraction form 1/60=x/180. Solving for x, we find that x=3.

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
