The scale of a square map indicates that each inch on the map
corresponds to 5 miles. Write an expression that describes the area of
land shown on the map. If the map is 8 inches on one side, what is the
area of land shown on the map?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Area of land: 800 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the map is a square, you can assume that all 4 sides will equal 8 inches. (Giving you a perimeter of 32, and an area of 64.) Since each inch corresponds to 5 miles, you multiply 8 by 5 which equals 40.
