Answer 4

Similar example:

if 1 inch = 50 miles

then 3 inches on a map would mean...

1 inch/50 miles = 3 inches/x miles

or just

1/50 = 3/x

Answer 5

so you can use that to find the actual distance x that 3 inches represents on a map

Answer 6

okay for the first one I got B as my answer and the second question I got C

Answer 7

why B for the first one?

Answer 8

you know the distance on the paper map, it's 7 inches

it's not z inches

Answer 9

z is the unknown distance in real life from point A to point B that the 7 inches represents on the paper map
