a map of a rectangle park has the length of 4inches and a with of 6 inches. It uses a scale of 1 inch every 30 miles. What is the area of the park

720 mi²

Step-by-step explanation:

The map has a scale of 1 in: 30 mi, meaning that for every inch you see on the map, in the real-life location, it will measure 30 miles. So we can find the area of the park on the map and then turn it into miles using the scale:

Area of a rectangle:

Replace the known values:

The area on the map is 24 mi², we can turn it to miles using the scale by multiplying our result with 30:

And last but not least, don't forget to put the unit!

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
