To find the height of the scale model in inches, we first need to determine the scale factor.
Since 2 inches represents 8 feet, the scale factor is 8 feet / 2 inches = 4 feet per inch.
Next, we need to convert the height of the Texas Capital from feet to inches using the scale factor:
312 feet * 4 feet per inch = 1248 inches
Therefore, the height of the scale model of the Texas Capital is 1248 inches.
Sal and Zack built a scale model of the Texas Capital using a scale model in which 2 inches represents 8 feet. The height of the Texas Capital is 312 feet.
