Answer:
Option (A)
Explanation:
Here, the given question is based on the scale-model.
a height of 10,000 feet on the actual mountain range is taken equivalent to 1 foot in the model
.
so we can write it as,
10,000 feet=1 feet
1 feet=(1÷ 10,000) feet
Therefore,
5000 feet={(1÷ 10,000)×5,000} feet
5000 feet=0.5 feet
So, we can determine that a height 5000 feet on the actual mountain range is equivalent to a height of 0.5 feet on the model.
Hence, the smallest mountain on the model is 0.5 feet.
