What kind of land feature is shown at point A on this topographic map?
А
A. A steep slope
B. A river
C. A gentle slope
D. A depression

Answers

A) It’s a steep slope, because the isohypses are close to each other, which indicates a steep slope

The land feature which the topographic map shown, describes at point A, is known as C. A gentle slope.

How is a gentle slope depicted?

When using a topographic map, you can spot gentle slopes by looking at areas where the contour lines are not too close to each other as is the case in point A.

Areas with contour lines close together are steep slopes because the land rises fast.

The scale drawing of a porch is 8 inches wide by 12 inches long. If the actual porch is 12 feet wide, what is the length of the porch?

Answers

Answer:

The actual length of the porch is 18 feet.

Explanation:

Scale = [tex]\frac{length on drawing}{actual length}[/tex]

So that considering the width of the drawing and actual porch,

1 foot = 12 inches

12 feet = 12 x 12 inches

           = 144 inches

scale = [tex]\frac{8}{144}[/tex]

         = [tex]\frac{1}{18}[/tex]

Given that the length of the porch drawn is 12 inches, let the actual length of the porch be represented by x. Then the actual length can be determined by;

scale = [tex]\frac{length on drawing}{actual length}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{18}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{x}[/tex]

x = 12 x 18

  = 216

x = 216 inches

But,

1 foot = 12 inches

216 inches = 18 feet

The actual length of the porch is 18 feet.

Answer:

18ft
