Answer:

  a)  235 mi

  b)  259 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor from the map to the real world is apparently ...

  (SA-H actual)/(SA-H map) = (188 mi)/(3 in) = 62 2/3 mi/in

Then the actual distance from Dallas to Houston is ...

  (3.75 in)(62 2/3 mi/in) = 235 mi

And from Dallas to San Antonio, the distance is ...

  (4.125 in)(62 2/3 mi/in) = 258.5 mi ≈ 259 mi
