Explain the reasons why the airline will fly the route by the budget allocated.

Measured map distance = 4.8 cm (as per map).

Scale = $1 : 1\,500\,000$

This means 1 cm on the map = $\frac{1\,500\,000}{100}$ m = $15\,000$ m = 15 km.

(Note: This is straight-line distance; actual flight path may vary slightly.)

Flying distance: $\mathbf{72\ km}$

measured 6.2 cm).

(Note: Actual road distance approximately 600 km; adjust scale if map-specific. Use given scale bar for precision.)

Aircraft speed = 800 km/h (economy jet).

Formula: $t = \frac{d}{v}$

Convert: $0.09 \times 60 = 5.4$ minutes $\approx 5$ minutes.

Flying time: $\mathbf{5\ \text{minutes}}$

Average speed = 110 km/h (N3 highway).

Use actual road distance 600 km (standard).

$0.45 \times 60 \approx 27$ minutes.

Driving time: $\mathbf{5\ \text{hours}\ 27\ \text{minutes}}$

1.1 Flying distance: 72 km

1.2 Road distance: 600 km

1.3 Flying time: 5 min

1.4 Driving time: 5 h 27 min
