<span>In this problem, to find the answer we have to setup a series of ratios that relate the scale to real life distance. We know that 1cm = 2.50km, so that ratio would be 1cm/2.5km. For two towns that are 4.75cm apart on the map, we set a ration of 4.75cm/x km, where x is the actual distance. Now we set the ratios equal to each other and solve for x. 1/2.5=4.75/x where x = 4.75*2.5/1 = 11.875 and rounding up we get 11.88 km. The two towns are actually 11.88 km apart from each other.</span>

A blueprint uses a scale factor of 3 inches = 2 feet. What is the area on the blueprint of a 3,500 square foot house in inches?
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

7875 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

4ft^2 = 2ft * 2ft

4ft^2 = 3in * 3in

4ft^2 = 9in^2

For 3,500 square foot

3,500 square foot  = x

Divide bith expressions

4/3500 = 9/x

4x = 9 * 3500

4x = 31500

x = 31500/4

x = 7875 square inches

Hence the area of the house in inches is 7875 square inches
