1. Sarah’s mother has a miniature village modeled after her home town. The model is 10 feet long and 7 feet wide. The actual village is 7 miles long. What is the village’s actual width? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth of a mile.
A. 4.9 miles
B. 10 miles
C. 1 mile
D. 0.7 mile
Let's use a proportion. Cross multiply and solve for x.
10/7 = 7/x
10x = 49
x = 49/10
Thanks Ms.Sue

I’m Someone we’re are the answers?
Sarah's mother has a miniature village modeled after her home town. The model is 10 feet long and 7 feet wide. The actual village is 8 miles long. What is the village's actual width? If needed, round your answer to the nearest tenth. (Read Carefully!) (Hint: Start by converting the length of the actual village from miles into feet.)
To find the village's actual width, we need to use the scale at which the model was made. The model is 10 feet long, and the actual village is 7 miles long. We can set up a proportion to find the width.
Let x be the village's actual width in miles. We can set up the following proportion:
10 feet / 7 miles = 7 feet / x miles
To solve for x, we can cross multiply:
10 feet * x miles = 7 feet * 7 miles
10x = 49
x = 4.9
Therefore, the village's actual width is approximately 4.9 miles.
So the correct answer is A. 4.9 miles.
