Answer:

<em>The scale factor is 1:125</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling</u>

Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which consists of multiplying or dividing by a constant factor. We use scaling when representing geographic locations on a map.

On a scale drawing, a distance of 5 meters = 500 cm is represented by 4 centimeters. The scale factor is usually represented as a ratio of the smallest to the biggest magnitude:

$\frac{4}{500}=\frac{1}{125}$

The scale factor is 1:125

givi [52]

Circumference of Circle=C, =2(pi)(radius)
Radius of Circle=r
Side of square=x
f(x)=area of circle
g(r)=area of square
16 feet=C+4x
C=16-4x
2(pi)(r)=16-4x
2(pi)(r)=2(8-2x)
(pi)(r)=8-2x
r=(8-2x)/(pi)
x=(8-(pi)r)/2
f(x)=(pi)(r^2)
f(x)=(pi)((8-2x)/(pi))^2
f(x)=((8-2x)^2)/(pi)
f(x)=((64-32x+4x^2))/(pi)
g(r)=((8-(pi)r)/2)^2
g(r)=((64-16(pi)r+(pi)^2(r^2))/4
