As a part of city building refurbishment project,  architects have constructed a scale model of several city builidings to present to the city commission for approval. The scale of the model is 1 inch = 9 feet.

The model includes a new park in the center of the city. If the dimensions of the park in the model are 9 inches by 17 inches, what are the actual dimensions of the park?

Answer: 81 feet by 153 feet

In the refurbishment project, the unit scale is given by

1 inch = 9 feet

So, the dimensions of the new park in actual dimensions would be

1 inch = 9 feet

9 inches = x

x = 9.9

x = 81 feet

1 inch = 9 feet

17 inches = y

y = 17.9

y = 153 feet

The actual dimensions of the new park are 81 feet by 153 feet.
