4) As part of a city building project, architects have constructed a
scale model of the city, where the scale of the model is 1 inch = 9
feet. The commission would like to install new flagpoles that are
45 feet tall. How tall are the flagpoles in the model?

Respuesta :

Answer:

5 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

model : flagpoles = 1 inch : 9 feet

model : 45 feet = 1 inch : 9 feet

9 feet × model = 45 feet × 1 inch

[tex]model=\frac{45\ feet\times1\ inch}{9\ feet}[/tex]

model = 5 inch
