Answer:
3. 84 km
4. y = 3/4x
Step-by-step explanation:
3. The map and ground distances can form a proportion:
ground distance / map distance = 24 km / (2 cm) = x / (7 cm)
Multiplying by 7 cm gives ...
x = (24 km)(7/2) = 84 km
The actual distance is 84 km.
__
4. We notice that y (9) is less than x (12), so the multiplier of x must be less than 1. The appropriate equation is ...
y = 3/4x
