PLEASE HELP AND EXPLAIN. For this problem you need to determine the correct height of a flagpole large enough to support the Star Spangled Banner flag that flies over Fort McHenry. This flag is 30 by 42 feet in size. (We know that the ratio of the height of a flagpole to the width of any flag is 4 to 1.)

a. How tall will the flagpole need to be to support the Star Spangled Banner?
b. You have a model of Ft. McHenry that you need to add a flagpole to that would be proportional to the real pole at the fort. The ratio of the model is 1 inch to 10 feet.
c. You are given a model flagpole that is 8 inches tall; is this the correct size? If not, how tall does it need to be?
d. You have a model flag that is 5 by 6.3 inches. Are the model flag and original flag similar figures? If not, what would the model flag dimensions need to be? What is the scale factor?
e. Refer to the model in part c. What is the ratio of the perimeter of the model flag in comparison to the original flag?
f. Refer to the model in part d. What is the ratio of the area of the model flag in comparison to the original flag?
g. What is the relationship between the ratios of perimeter and area?

Afriend of mine is giving a dinner party. his current wine supply includes 10 bottles of zinfandel, 8 of merlot, and 11 of cabernet (he only drinks red wine), all from different wineries. (a) if he wants to serve 3 bottles of zinfandel and serving order is important, how many ways are there to do this? ways (b) if 6 bottles of wine are to be randomly selected from the 29 for serving, how many ways are there to do this? ways (c) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, how many ways are there to obtain two bottles of each variety? ways (d) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, what is the probability that this results in two bottles of each variety being chosen? (round your answer to three decimal places.) (e) if 6 bottles are randomly selected, what is the probability that all of them are the same variety? (round your answer to three decimal places.)
