    Part A) In the scale drawing the length of the swimming pool is 10 cm and the width is 5 cm

    Part B) The actual length of the bus is 45 ft

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Part A) Make a scale drawing of the swimming pool where 1 centimeter represents 5 meters

    we know that

    The scale is [tex]\frac{1}{5} \frac{cm}{m}[/tex]

    To find out the dimensions of the pool in the scale drawing, multiply the actual dimensions by the scale factor

    Find the length in the scale drawing

    [tex]\frac{1}{5} \frac{cm}{m}(50\ m)=10\ cm[/tex]

    Find the width in the scale drawing

    [tex]\frac{1}{5} \frac{cm}{m}(25\ m)=5\ cm[/tex]

    Part B) What is the actual length of the bus?

    we know that

    The scale is [tex]\frac{0.5}{5} \frac{in}{ft}=0.1\frac{in}{ft}[/tex]

    The length of the school bus is 4 1/2 inches on the scale drawing

    To find out the actual length of the bus, divide the length in the scale drawing by the scale

    Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

    [tex]4\frac{1}{2}\ in=\frac{4*2+1}{2}=\frac{9}{2}\ in[/tex]

    Find the actual length of the bus

    [tex]\frac{\frac{9}{2}\ in}{0.1\frac{in}{ft}}=45\ ft[/tex]

    10 cm and 5 cm.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The length of a rectangular swimming pool = 50 meters

    The width of the swimming pool = 25 meters

    Scale is 1 centimeter = 5 meters

    Then length of Scale drawing = [tex]\frac{50}{5}[/tex]

                                                      = 10 centimeters

    The width of scale drawing = [tex]\frac{25}{5}[/tex]

                                                      = 5 centimeters

    Therefore, the scale drawing of the swimming pool measures 10 cm in length and 5 cm in width.

    10 cm and 5 cm.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The length of a rectangular swimming pool = 50 meters

    The width of the swimming pool = 25 meters

    Scale is 1 centimeter = 5 meters

    Then length of Scale drawing = [tex]\frac{50}{5}[/tex]

                                                      = 10 centimeters

    The width of scale drawing = [tex]\frac{25}{5}[/tex]

                                                      = 5 centimeters

    Therefore, the scale drawing of the swimming pool measures 10 cm in length and 5 cm in width.

    The length in the drawing is 10 cm and the width is 5 cm

    The drawing in the attached figure    

    Step-by-step explanation:

    we know that

    The scale is [tex]\frac{1}{5}\frac{cm}{m}[/tex]

    using proportion

    Find out the dimensions of the swimming pool in the drawing

    Length 50 m

    Let

    x -----> the length in the drawing

    [tex]\frac{1}{5}\frac{cm}{m}=\frac{x}{50}\frac{cm}{m}\\\\x=50/5\\\\x=10\ cm[/tex]

    so

    the length in the drawing is 10 cm

    Width 25 m

    Let

    x -----> the width in the drawing

    [tex]\frac{1}{5}\frac{cm}{m}=\frac{x}{25}\frac{cm}{m}\\\\x=25/5\\\\x=5\ cm[/tex]

    so

    the width in the drawing is 5 cm

    The drawn in the attached figure

    Part A) In the scale drawing the length of the swimming pool is 10 cm and the width is 5 cm

    Part B) The actual length of the bus is 45 ft

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Part A) Make a scale drawing of the swimming pool where 1 centimeter represents 5 meters

    we know that

    The scale is [tex]\frac{1}{5} \frac{cm}{m}[/tex]

    To find out the dimensions of the pool in the scale drawing, multiply the actual dimensions by the scale factor

    Find the length in the scale drawing

    [tex]\frac{1}{5} \frac{cm}{m}(50\ m)=10\ cm[/tex]

    Find the width in the scale drawing

    [tex]\frac{1}{5} \frac{cm}{m}(25\ m)=5\ cm[/tex]

    Part B) What is the actual length of the bus?

    we know that

    The scale is [tex]\frac{0.5}{5} \frac{in}{ft}=0.1\frac{in}{ft}[/tex]

    The length of the school bus is 4 1/2 inches on the scale drawing

    To find out the actual length of the bus, divide the length in the scale drawing by the scale

    Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

    [tex]4\frac{1}{2}\ in=\frac{4*2+1}{2}=\frac{9}{2}\ in[/tex]

    Find the actual length of the bus

    [tex]\frac{\frac{9}{2}\ in}{0.1\frac{in}{ft}}=45\ ft[/tex]
