Answer:
Option A - [tex]\frac{0.5}{2.75}=\frac{2}{d}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Aricela is trying to estimate the distance between her house and the park. On a map with a scale of 0.5 in. = 2 miles, the distance between her house and the park is 2.75 in.
To find : Which proportion can Aricela use to determine the distance, d, between her house and the park?
Solution :
The distance between her house and the park is 'd' miles.
A scale of 0.5 in. = 2 miles
The distance between her house and the park is 2.75 in.
i.e. the scale is 2.75 in. = d miles
The proportion form is
[tex]\frac{0.5\ in}{2.75\ in}=\frac{2\ miles}{d\ miles}[/tex]
Therefore, proportion can Aricela use to determine is [tex]\frac{0.5}{2.75}=\frac{2}{d}[/tex].
So, option A is correct.
