use the table to answer the question ( Town: Bellstown Lewis City: 120 Km
Bellstown Jenkinsvile: 40 km
Jenkinsvile Lewis City: 60 km )
Arturo creates a scale drawing showing these distances if the distance between Lewis City and Bellstown is 6 centimeters on his drawing how far apart are Lewis City and Jenkinsvile on Arturo’s drawing
If the distance between Lewis City and Bellstown is 6 centimeters on the scale drawing, we need to find the scale factor in order to determine the distance between Lewis City and Jenkinsvile on Arturo's drawing.
The actual distance between Lewis City and Bellstown is 120 km, and on the scale drawing it is represented by 6 cm. So the scale factor is 120 km / 6 cm = 20 km/cm.
Now, let's find the distance between Jenkinsvile and Lewis City on the scale drawing.
The actual distance between Jenkinsvile and Lewis City is 60 km. Using the scale factor we found (20 km/cm), we can calculate the distance on the scale drawing as:
60 km / 20 km/cm = 3 cm
Therefore, on Arturo's scale drawing, the distance between Jenkinsvile and Lewis City is 3 centimeters.
solve the following problem Natalia prints a photo of a covered bridge the print measures 6 centimeters by 4 centimeters she wants to resize the photo into the size of a postcard with a length of 15 centimeters what will be the area of the postcard
First, we need to find the scale factor by considering the ratio of the length of the postcard to the length of the print:
Scale factor = Length of postcard / Length of print
Scale factor = 15 cm / 6 cm
Scale factor = 2.5
Now, we can use this scale factor to find the new width of the resized photo:
New width = Scale factor * Width of print
New width = 2.5 * 4 cm
New width = 10 cm
Therefore, the new dimensions of the resized photo will be 10 centimeters by 15 centimeters.
Now, we can calculate the area of the postcard:
Area of postcard = Length x Width
Area of postcard = 15 cm x 10 cm
Area of postcard = 150 square centimeters
Therefore, the area of the postcard will be 150 square centimeters.
use the image to answer the question
( 3m a small rectangle 4m )
The rectangle shows the outline of a campsite in a national forest Anna makes a scale drawing of the campsite in which the longer side measures 1 meter what is the area of the scale drawing in square meters
To find the area of the scale drawing in square meters, we need to use the scale factor based on the given lengths.
The actual longer side of the campsite is 4 meters, and on the scale drawing, it is represented by 1 meter. So the scale factor is 4 meters / 1 meter = 4.
Now, we can find the corresponding length of the shorter side on the scale drawing by using the scale factor:
Shorter side on scale drawing = Scale factor * Actual shorter side
Shorter side on scale drawing = 4 * 3 meters
Shorter side on scale drawing = 12 meters
Now, we can calculate the area of the scale drawing:
Area of the scale drawing = Length x Width
Area of the scale drawing = 1 meter x 12 meters
Area of the scale drawing = 12 square meters
Therefore, the area of the scale drawing of the campsite is 12 square meters.
