Answer 5

Hello, Miss.Rose,
The original scale is "1 inch corresponds to 12 yards."
If you adopt the new scale, which is "1 inch corresponds to 36 yards," would your scale model be larger or smaller than the given one?

Answer 6

larger.

Answer 7

Please explain your decision. Remember: the playing field doesn't change at all in size, but models of various sizes can be constructed.

Answer 8

Well, 36 is larger than 12 so it is obviously going to be bigger than the first field.

Answer 9

Here's the scoop. In the given model, 1 inch corresponds to 12 feet of the actual field.

The given model is 9 inches long. How long is the field?

Answer 10

Again, remember that 1 inch in the model corresponds to 12 feet in the actual field.

Answer 11

9*3= 27 Would it be 27?
I got the 3 because 36/12 = 3, so I though
12*3=36

Answer 12

Let's concentrate solely on the given model, in which 1 inch corresponds to 12 feet in the actual field. If the length of the given model is 9 inches, how long is the field? Ignore the "36 feet" for now, please.

Answer 13

1 inch corresponds to 12 feet,
2 inches corresp. to 24 feet,
and so onl
9 inches correspond to how many feet?

Answer 14

9*12=108

Answer 15

yes. the actual field is 108 feet long

Now we'll focus on the (different) scale "1 inch corresponds to 36 feet."
Divide 108 feet by 36 feet. Of what use is the result?

Answer 16

It equals 3

Answer 17

yes. 3 what? who cares? what's the purpose of dividing 108 feet by 36 feet?

Answer 18

3 feet.
I don't know what the purpose was for dividing 108 feet by 36 feet.

Answer 19

At first we used the scale "1 inch corresponds to 12 feet."

Now we've changed the story and are using the scale "1 inch corresponds to 36 feet."
If that is true, then 2 inches of model correspond to 2(36 feet) of the actual length of the court.

\[1"\rightarrow 36'\]
\[2"\rightarrow ? feet\]

Answer 20

\[3"\rightarrow ? feet\]

Answer 21

Replace each question mark with the appropriate number.

Answer 22

Wait... I don't get it.

Answer 23

Review our whole conversation. We've gone through this before, with the original scale, which was "1 inch corresponds to 12 feet in real life."

Now the scale is different: It's "1 inch coresponds to 36 feet."
Then, 2 inches corresp. to how many feet?
Then, 3 inches corresp. to how many feet?

Answer 24

2inches= 72feet
3inches= 108

Answer 25

Yes. How long is the actual field?

Answer 26

What do you mean?

Answer 27

I've cut and pasted this from earlier in our dialogue:

"mathmale Medals 0
yes. the actual field is 108 feet long

Now we'll focus on the (different) scale "1 inch corresponds to 36 feet."
Divide 108 feet by 36 feet. Of what use is the result?"

Answer 28

How long is the actual field?

Answer 29

3inches

Answer 30

No, it's 108 feet.
BUT, if we use the scale "1 inch corresponds to 36 feet," then the MODEL (not the actual field) is how long?

Answer 31

3 inches, right?

Answer 32

\[108'\rightarrow (?) inches\]

Answer 33

Yes, it's 3 inches.

Answer 34

How wide will your model now be, if the length is 3 inches?
You must use "1 inch corresponds to 36 feet" in answering this.

Answer 35

I don't know. I still need a little bit of help.

Answer 36

Please go back and look at the given picture of the model. How long is it? How wide is it?

Answer 37

It is 9 inches
and 6 inches wide.

Answer 38

Right. If we change the scale so that it's now "1 inch corresponds to 36 feet,"
What will be the new width of the end of the model? currently it's 6 inches. Using this different scale means that the model will be smaller (not larger).

the new model width will be ... ??

Answer 39

3 inches by 2 inches?

Answer 40

Yes. very good. any questions? Understanding this type of problem takes time and practice.

Answer 41

Thank you very much. I do not have any more questions, if I do have some in the future I will tag you if you are logged on.

Have a great rest of your day! Bye!
