A landscape designer created a scale drawing of a bench that will be in a garden as shown. The actual width of the bench much is
6 feet, and the actual height is 3 feet. Fill in each box to complete the following statements.
1 answer:
Answer:
a. 1 inch = 3 feet
b. 1 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached the drawing of the bench is shown correctly.
a.
The drawing shows that the width of the bench is 2 inches. To get the scale we need to divide actual width by drawing width, in mathematical terms:
scale = 6 feet/2 inches = 3 feet/inch
b.
If actual height is 3 ft and every inch represents 3 feet, then, the height of the scale drawing is 1 inch
