Answer:
6 in = 80 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Distance between Capeton and Jonesville = 80 miles.
Map scale : 0.75 in = 10 miles ; this means 0.75 inches on the map represents 10 miles on land.
Hence, If ;
0.75 inches = 10 miles
x inches = 80 miles
Cross multiply :
10 * x = 80 * 0.75
10x = 60
10x / 10 = 60 / 10
x = 6 inches
Hence,
6 in = 80 miles
I'm assuming it would be the same shape? That's also assuming that it's referring to congruent shapes and angles.
