Samantha is painting her house. There are a total of 2,261 square feet of surface are to be painted. If she can paint 75 square
feet of surface area per hour, which equation would represent A, the surface area of the wall left to paint after Samantha has painted for t hours? A- A= 75 - 2,261 t
B- A= 2,261 + 75t
C- A= 2,261 - 75t
D- A= 75 + 2,261t
The actual is 60 feet long, the drawing is only 1 foot long. So the scale factor must be 1/60. You know that the scale factor has to be less than one in this case because you're going from a bigger measurement to a smaller measurement(60 to 1).
