Assuming two hypothetical maps that each cover a standard 8.5 by 11-inch sheet of paper, the larger-scale map would cover a larger geographic area than the smaller-scale map. a) true
b) false

b) false

Explanation:

The scale of a map is the ratio of a distance on the map to the corresponding distance on the ground. Scaling allow us to capture a large geographical area on a reduced platform while still retaining the relative sizes and positioning of places on the map to their real life sizes and positioning. If both maps cover a standard 8.5 by 11-inch sheet of paper, then the map with the smaller ratio will have the bigger geographical area.

To understand better, let us assume two geographical areas A and B. A is bigger than B. If we were to put them both on the same area of map paper, then we'll have to scale up the smaller geographical area B so as to fit into the map paper. This means that the geographical area with the smaller area B will have the larger scale on the map.

c. 7/3

step-by-step explanation:

a rational number is like pi- it is a repeating decimal.

a. is -1.8

b. 2.236068

c. 2.3333333333333333333

d.   is 3

i hope that ! =)
