    Part A. 70 feet, 35 feet

    Part B. $735

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The blue print of a pool has a scale of 2 inches equals to 7 feet.

    The length in blueprint is 20 inches and the width is 10 inches.

    Part A.

    ∵ 2 inches = 7 feet

    ∵ 1 inch = 7/2 = 3.5 feet

    20 inches = 3.5 * 20 = 70 feet

    10 inches = 3.5 * 10 = 35 feet

    The actual dimensions of the pool Blueprint 10 in. Actual 35 feet, Blueprint: 20 in Actual : 70 feet.

    Part B.

    To buy a cover for the pool that costs $0.30 per square foot.

    Area = Length * width

    Area = 70 * 35 = 2,450 feet²

    cost per square foot = $0.30

    for 2,450 square foot = 2,450 * 0.30 = $735.00

    It costs $735 to buy a cover for the pool.

    Divide the scaled dimensions by 2, then multiply that by 7:

    Length: 20 / 2 = 10. 10*7 = 70 feet.

    Width: 10 / 2 = 5. 5 * 7 = 35 feet.

    A) The pool is 70 feet long by 35 feet wide.

    B) Area is length x width

    Area = 70 * 35 = 2,450 square feet.

    Cover cost 0.30 per square foot.

    Total cost = 2,450 x 0.30 = $735
