Question

PLEASE HELP!!!!

Theater Club Stage Crew

The school's theater club is building sets that will make ordinary students look like giants. The actors need a door, a table, and a stool that will make them look almost twice as tall!

DOOR: actual height is 80 inches and Height on Set is 44 inches

TABLE: actual height is 28 inches

STOOL: actual height is 18 inches

How can the stage manager use the constant of proportionality to find the dimensions of any new props the director requires?

What should the height of a can of fruit juice used as a prop be if its actual height is 7 inches? Show your work.

Any Fast Help is Greatly Appreciated, and Thank You

Answer:

  a) the constant of proportionality multiplies every actual linear dimension

  b) the can should be 3.85 inches high

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the desire is to have students look twice as tall, we expect the constant of proportionality to be 1/2. Instead, we're told that the stage manager is using a height of 44 inches to represent an 80-inch door. This means their constant of proportionality is 44/80 = 0.55.

A) Any new props can be scaled by this factor (0.55) to find their height on set.

__

B) A 7-inch can would be scaled to 7·0.55 = 3.85 inches in height.
