Question

Scale: 2inches = 1 ft

Answer 1

The actual lenght will be 6 fee

The actual width will be 4 feet

The scale factor that Jenna's father used to go from the drawing to the actual house is 1.5

The perimeter of the floor is 20 feet

The area of the first floor that Jenna's that father built is 24ft²

Given the conversion factor 2inches = 1feet

1) If Jenna's father is going to use the blueprint above to make a playhouse for her and the length of the entire first floor is 12 inches, the actual length in feet is expressed as:

12 inches = x

2inches = 1feet

_____________________________

2x = 12

x = 6 feet

Hence the actual lenght will be 6 feet

2) If the width of the entire first floor is 8 inches, the actual width is expressed as;

8 inches = x

2inches = 1feet

_____________________________

2x = 8

x = 4 feet

Hence the actual width will be 4 feet

3) Thee scale factor will be the ratio of the length to the width as shown:

Ratio = length/width

Ratio = 6/4

Ratio = 3/2

Hence the scale factor that Jenna's father used to go from the drawing to the actual house is 1.5

4) The perimeter of the floor = 2(L + W)

Perimeter = 2(6 + 4)

Perimeter = 2(10)

Perimeter of the floor is 20 feet

5) Area of the floor = length * width

Area of the floor = 6ft * 4ft

Area of the floow = 24ft²

Hence the area of the first floor that Jenna's that father built is 24ft²
