In a model, the distance from the sun to Earth is 7 inches and the distance from the sun to Neptune is 19 inches. If the actual distance from the sun to Earth is 91.549 million miles and the actual distance from the sun to Neptune is 2,780.5 million miles, are the model’s distances proportional to the actual dimensions of the solar system?(1 point)
Responses
No, because the ratios of model length to actual distance are different for the two planets.
No, because the ratios of model length to actual distance are different for the two planets.
Yes, because the ratios can be simplified, and those ratios are equal.

Yes, because the ratios of model length to actual distance are equal for the two planets.
No, because the model is in inches and the actual distances are in millions of miles.
