PLEASE ANSWER ASAP

Answer 1

Answer:

3 / 5 = 0.6 so the scale factor is 0.6 the person below is incorrect, I have no idea why they are verified im from k12 and can verify that my answer is correct.

Answer 2

1. You can find the scale factor bookshelf by dividing the actual length with model length.
If you put it into an equation, it would look like this

actual length= model length * scale factor
5ft= 3ft * scale factor
scale factor = 5ft/3ft= 1.667 times

2. You can solve this problem with equation used above. Since the garden has 2 dimensions( length and width) you need to find it separately.

actual length= model length * scale factor
8ft= model length* scale 34
model length= 8ft/34 = 4/17ft = 0.23529 ft

actual width= model width* scale factor
4ft= model width* scale 34
model width= 4ft/34= 2/17ft =0.11764 ft
