Answer:

<em>The actual distance between Rose Lake and the hiking trail is 7 miles.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual distance between Rose Lake and the main road is 3.5 miles and the scaled distance on the map is 2 inch.

Suppose, the actual distance between Rose Lake and the hiking trail is  d miles.

Given that, the scaled distance from Rose Lake to the hiking trail on the map is 4 inch.

So, <u>according to the ratio of "scaled distance" to the "actual distance"</u>, the equation will be......

\frac{2}{3.5}= \frac{4}{d} \\ \\ 2d=4*3.5=14\\ \\ d=\frac{14}{2}=7

Thus, the actual distance between Rose Lake and the hiking trail is 7 miles.
